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.

It’s the same as if I gave you a super mario bros 1, but with 3 buttons for jump instead one and only one of them works at a time in a linear fashion. It wouldn’t add any depth or difficulty to the game at all.

Dragoon has two different combos that both start with the same "1".
Samurai has three different combos that start with the same "1".
Ninja has an alternate "3".
MNK has 3 sets of 3, multiple ways to change the order, and boiling it down to what you're describing would absolutely destroy the job.

If you play melee only by hitting "1...2...3" you're playing it wrong.
