[dev1016] Not stopping to draw a weapon and go into "active mode"

[OmegaNovaios]

All I am saying is learn the mechanics of your game before saying that something don't work.
Of course, I wonder what new trait lancers will get if this happens since it makes Fleet of Foot useless.

This essentially would make Fleet of Foot useless since you couldn't regenerate HP/MP and you wouldn't be running around while trying to counter attack, but you could still move out of AOEs easier, position yourself around mobs easier, or move to teleported targets more quickly, yet again if going into active/passive was as fluid as having no stopping time then that still wouldn't matter for the most part.

they'd probly just give them a slight increase in speed while active IF anything at all.

With this everyone would be in active mode 100% of time played and would be the most valued skill in the game.

So they should ultimately give LNC a new trait like increased attack distance.

Thats why I said if anything at all, I wouldn't give them anything. Its a optional ability to slightly increase the movement speed in active mode that would still be in effect, yes they can just switch to passive without stopping for almost the same effect but in a actual combat situation theystay ontop of moving mobs or when/if PvP is added troll players without the trait in PvP scenarios.

Even if this were true, I would still argue giving a trait to one class to overcome a ridiculous game mechanic is not ideal. If it ruins fleet of foot, give them something that is actually helpful, and let us move while we put away our weapons. How stupid are our characters if they cant draw or sheath a sword without stopping to think about it? Maybe Archers should stop because bows are quite cumbersome...

So, as a lancer you run everywhere with your weapon out then? I have fleet of foot, and I still sheath my weapon to run around. When I agro something I can't kill (too strong for me) while in passive mode, to use quickstride I have to pause and pull out my weapon. I don't want to pause to get attacked when I am trying to run. How does this diminish the benefit of fleet of foot? It only works in active mode, not during the transition between active and passive.

edit: btw I would like to point out that even with that trait, it is still not as fast as passive mode. Tested running next to a friend, passive is still slightly faster.

Wow, how literally retarded some of you are. The advantage of Fleet of Foot is not so you can catch up while sheathing weapons. It has to do with your ability to move around in combat faster and reposistion. This is perfectly explained by the entire fact it is put on the LANCER. You know the class with pierces and skills that require positioning, so you can move faster... while repositioning. We're talking about the game stopping movement when you unequip your weapon....

So let's look at this like the mongoloids do.

You are running next to someone without fleet of foot, you both hit active mode, you both stop, the one with fleet of foot runs fast afterward.

Let's pretend you didn't stop.


What would happen, the person with fleet of foot would run faster afterward.

How do you people tie your shoes in the morning? Do you use velcro?

If there was absolutely no stopping then the person next to LNC could just go passive temporarily to run up to or around the mob then go back to active/hit their attack action at the same speed as the LNC.

Edit: I felt like I was too rude the first time. I feel like this post is strongly lacking sound judgment.

Are lancers claimers? Why would I even bother with a lancer to claim mobs when I COULD USE AN ARCHER. As I said retards.

Do you not understand the point of Fleet of Foot? Are you that braindead?
