Does SE conside add "quick step" to spice up the combat ?

No, this isnt Tekken or any other 3d fighting game.
You have the ability to dodge any attack that is directional already in the game now, just need to pay attention and pray lag doesnt ruin things for you.

Yeah it's already possible to do this manually, don't need automation (Game played for you) if I'm understanding the post correctly.

Pretty much every enemy has avoidable attack and ability to position yourself for combos the only issue is server delay at times, but that'll be fixed.

What you're describing belongs in a single-player game IMHO.
Call me draconian.

You are draconian.

But yeah. Server prevents this. Maybe be in 2.0.

I know TERA does this, but it was implemented to be like that from the start being a hackandslash.

i think tera has that quickstep skill, so would be nice having that, but could work better if they link it to the emote button for game pad users and space bar for keyboard/mouse users or right click. Could help on combos that needs u to move around the mob.

Just saying is not impossible and they're changing the engine.

I don't think this ability would fit FFXIV very well. It seems like it would belong in a button-masher-action game. Server lag is already a hindrance. If you had half a second to do a skill like this... it would only serve to frustrate the players when they missed the window due to lag.

Barrel roll!

Except if it's lag, it's useless.

Sorry, this isn't an action mmo, I would expect that in a game like vindictus where it's real time and what not. If you can turn this game into an action mmo by all means, I will welcome this, but this is not an action mmorpg.
