Increasing number of players using 3rd party tools

Honestly, the addon that consolidates combos is the single best thing out there.

There is no excuse, for it not to be standard behavior in the first place. There is no thought process and no decisions involved with the melee combos. There is no situation, where you would want to hit the same button again, or skip 2 and go to straight to 3 in the 1-2-3 combos.

It doesn’t matter if I sort the buttons to 123 or ERT or whatever layout you use, instead of just hitting 111 or E E E. There is not a single ounce of skill floor or skill ceiling involved, but it stops my hand from tiring and aching.

There is a reason it's that way, it's not based on what you want, but what you do press that matters and you can drop it because everyone can fails.
That's like saying why bother doing combos in fighting games you just have to press one button to do the same, and yeah in certain games the 1111 version do exist, but it does less damage because it's braindead to do and you reward the players that do the same combos but the regular way.
Removing it with mods is cheating, if you're fine with cheating good for you, but dont try to make it look like it's legit.
And dont say that you do NEVER drop the 1-2-3, it would be a blatant lie.

With the added leeway they introduced it makes it REALLY hard to drop it. Its something like 12-15 seconds.

It was more about how one can't be perfect all the time and after hours and hours of trying you can drop it and it fucks ur whole rotation timing, that's not that uncommon.
Obviously you can have 99 % of the time doing it right, but even something as dumb as 1-2-3 you can missinput or tought you'll need something else and press the wrong key.
If it's just 1 1 1 1 1 1 you dont have to worry about it, so you have and advantage on others hence the cheating part, the moment you gain an advantage on others using tools it's cheating to my eyes.

If some do really need it something like i talked earlier i would not mind, you make a 111 button for ppl that dont want to press anything else BUT you loose potency on each part since it's easier, or you can do the regular way and have all the potency on each different keys so you reward ppl using the harder way.
