one button rotation,opinion?

I've been sitting here wondering why this couldn't be accomplished with macros already.

It can, but fairly clunky unless you happen to play at 2.00s GCD timer, because you can only input delays in full seconds. Would also mean you effectively are going for single-weaving.

As someone who has been asking for PvP combos in PvE content for so many years, I certainly do not like the idea of one-button rotation WoW has implemented.

Now, you might think my statement here is contradictory, but the truth is that I prefer the PvP combos we have right now because they reduce unnecessary button bloat of combo skills (Example: 1,2,3 reduce to 1 button). This is going to free up a couple of other buttons for you to have any other skills in them (or items). Say, to have single-target basic combo at button 1, AoE basic combo at button 2, a Shield action at button 3, and so on.

If we have everything in one or two buttons, that'd be just too much. It's the extreme that I don't want to see in any video games.

Of course, I'm speaking here from my experience playing ESO and GW2, in which the entire hotbar is around ten buttons, but still has enough depth to make it engaging and interesting, which is what I'd like to see.

NO. I know there already cheaters that do that, but once this is added im out. This is so low, this literally is "ehhh i dont like battle in an action rpg, i dont wanna fight for story, just watch a movie.." so JUST GO AND WATCH SOME YT or anything - the game isnt for you, even if you like your aesthetics. This is not second life or anything, even if some ppl treat it that way.

So WoW is implementing one button rotation with slower GCD.
Seems like a good idea to make the game accessible while keeping the skill expression.
Kind of like modern/classic input in SF6.

I wonder if xiv could have this too and then make jobs ratation a bit harder?

I'm strongly against one button rotations in any form.
One button rotations with a slower GCD would be even worse because then not only would the rotation be braindead easy, the people that opt to do it would just be performing worse on top of that.

Also technically this already exists, because you can make a macro for a one button rotation, and the wait function can't do decimals so it is slower.

I would not call it one button rotation but I think they should give us the "OPTION" to layer mutliple buttons over each other so that players can choose a layout that reduced button bloat, and set it up in a way they like.
I think this could if some one invested time into setting there hotbar up in this way, make the game more accesible to people with limitations, without having to dumb down the gameplay itself.

But as we all learn the Devs do not like giving us options, we all get served the same slope and have to like it.

bait title aside,

i don't understand the hate boner some people get when they see other people playing how they want. it shouldn't affect you.

If the game isnt for you - leave, dont use an bot or cheat. In the end it'll only worsen the game... just as you shouldn't listen to the 0,1% raiders....
