We interrupt your current server woes to talk about casting

[Wynn]

I never cared for it in FFXI and was extremely happy that it wasn't an issue in FFXIV. Now that it's coming... ugh. But... meh.

Hopefully this "H" business will override the stupid 3-4-second wait before being able to cast in FFXI.

Yeah, at this point with all the soul destroying changes they have made to mages and crafting, I'm just like:

"H" to face target has been in game for awhile now. You can bind the command to a different key if you'd wish; but, default is H and I <3 it.

doesnt seem to be animation lock when a spell is cancelled by running. yum!

As long as it's gone, I will not grieve for my loss of ability to run and cast at same time

It is about time spells get interupted when a player moves. This will also make some fights (for those who have yet to finish it) like ifrit easier. I myself had the same experirence doing ifrit, I tried to cancel the spell but guess what it didnt cancel and boom I got nailed. It has happened to everyone who has beaten ifrit. I am glad that spells will be interupted when you move as I am not sure about some, but found it odd that a mage can cast and run. This is an awesome move by the dev team and am glad that they are finally doing this for the jobs and classes.

Hopefully that recast is just messed up from testing purposes or something.
Seems way high.

Yeah, that is what I was thinking as well.
