~Poll~ Longer fights <Do you want it?>

"You can beat your average monster with about 5 or 6 weapon skills, so your typical battle wraps up in around 15 or 20 seconds."

Yep, no longer fights... darn.

Except 15-20 seconds is almost double what it takes to kill an average level mob now and five weaponskills is more than it takes now, even for a Paladin. Try harder.

I will.
Everyone starts with tp, 5 people can just go up and do all their ws. BAM it's dead in 1 second.
then it goes into gather mobs, do all aoe attacks. Now it's aoe spam fest still.

I think he was talking about solo. Not with a party.

...are you purposely trying to be stupid? (Rhetorical question)

If you, solo, can kill a mob in 5 weaponskills, you should NOT be fighting those same mobs in a group. In what world are you fighting easily soloable mobs in a party of eight? I'll tell you where. In a world where you're doing it wrong.

Your level 10 and your killing level 16ish mobs solo.. you go and kill Level 23-25ish with a group of 8 people.

That's if your party is pathetic and wont fight stronger mobs.

How hard is this to understand? 15-20 seconds per normal mob is a longer battle than it takes currently. WS seem to be weakened in 2.0 and TP acts as MP. To be honest, I see this system requiring more tactics, as you wouldn't want your TP to deplete too fast during boss fights, etc. Though, I can't say for sure that the rate of TP regen would be fast or slow, but there is definitely going to be some changes here and you are going to have to keep an eye on your TP.
