Please give us an option to seperate our combo into more buttons.

I hate it, i hate it with passion.
I hate to not be able to tell where i am in my combo, i hate the feeling behind 1 button combo, yet i like pvp itself just i cant really get behind my combo buttons being merged into one.
If only we had option to make them 3 instead of 1 it would be great, pls SE.

Usually people ask for the opposite, they want to get it in PvE aswell.

Anyway, the only thing you can do atm is using some fancy macro commands to replace your hotbar each time you press a skill. You could just use the skill icons from PvE and make it look like you have a combo on different slots. That's quite the effort though.

Could also just place them multiple times on the hotbar if muscle memory is the issue or could also make a hotbar bigger on which you track the combo and put it separately on your hud, to have an easy way to check at which step you are.

So there are ways, to improve your issue at least, if you are creative enough.

I'd like to be able to separate the weaponskills just so I can cancel a combo early. Back in the day, PLD and DRK could repeat the 2 step part of their combo to get MP back in a pinch, at a loss of damage. Can't do that anymore.

I dont understand why u hate it. U can tell where you are in the combo because icon changes to the next attack everytime. So not sure why you're confused. And what would the benefit be of separating them?

There seems to be none whatsoever.

Ah... well, I don't want gunbreakers spamming 1, 2 over and over for heal and shield = p

Because its my preference, i dont like the one button combos at all, its overly simplified. Would like to have an option to do it other way around. Also there are some effects you would wish to use on the second step on combo too.

I think this is on purpose with their design philosophy. It's simple to get into, but the difficulty comes in knowing when to use your abilities while the additional buttons come from all the macros you should have for Ranked feast.

It's a double edged sword, on one end the "difficulty" comes from game knowledge which isn't readily apparent to a new player, on the other it's not really enough to separate a skilled player from someone that knows the basics like back during 3.x.

The fact is the new system did increase Frontline participation. It took away a lot of creativity from old pvp system but it indeed put everyone at same starting point

Not only that, but ultimately the combo skills do the same thing, so it matters very little were you are in them.

Play Mages Their combo is on different buttons to press. (Ice Fire Ice Fire)
In the end, it's true in a way not every classes have their base combo in only one button.
I'll always remember my 1rst duel in HW (in Front, to capture a base), I won because I could use my 1rst hit instead of the 3rd one of my combo because we were both going to die to the next skill, and I was going to hit after him, but then I used my 1rst hit (as WAR/MRD) to have the dmg done before my opponent and so I won thanks details of such thing as time animation / delay on dmg after pressing key.
