Job action combos one button

Do you think we will see the day where our rotation for combos will be just one button instead of 3-4? I think it would be a blessing and cut down on the hotbar bloat that we are getting for skills. What are your opinions on it?

*Looks at the healer gameplay and the huge threads and complaints about one button DPS "rotation" being boring and un-engaging with 1-1-1-1 button spam until something changes*

Don't think so.

Button bloat being cut down is definitely a blessing. 1 button DPS rotation being the only thing available definitely isn't.

Don't see it happening, its part of the core identity. They would need to add back in for all of those empty slots, they might just do it like bard and just have it a filler. What they will do is strip more low level skills for higher level skills and make some of those just direct upgrades with more flashy animations

If it happens and it's not optional I'd honestly quit. That would be the last straw in the constant dumbing down of the game for me.

[Padudu]

Goodness no. That'd be awful especially when lots of people feel like their entire toolkit has no need to be utilized currently

[Kewitt]

I'm out of easy reached keys as is. I know I could better utilize my off gcd ability if I wasn't having to find my mouse cruiser only to click there set to alt or ctl

[Esmoire]

I would like it as an option. Certainly makes hotkeying stuff in PvP much easier.

It would be nice for a job like gunbreaker with a ton of oGCD bloat. Won’t work with something like Monk. Some jobs would get boring as hell too. Wouldn’t mind a one button melee combo on RDM to cut button bloat a hair.

Yeah the PvE community should have to suffer like the PvPers

I'll admit, if the "combos" are literally going to be "1-2-3" combos as most of them currently are, then I'd say they should be condensed just like in PvP.

However, I wouldn't mind seeing them do something more akin to the old (ARR) Monk combos. You GENERALLY used "1-2-3" then "4-5-6", however if you were REALLY skilled, there would be times you might deviate, because each part of the combo had a specific EFFECT.

So there might be times you hit 4-2-3 or 1-5-3, or any combination. You could totally get by just doing the two standard combos, but it gave the high-skill players a means to differentiate themselves.

Meanwhile, my DRK pretty much just spams a basic single-target combo, or occasionally an AoE combo. I'd happily condense those into just two buttons.
