A Realm Reborn BATTLE SYSTEM!

[Kiote]

I dont care about the TP thing, I think the Stamina System was good. The problem was peoples ability to Click every single skill as fast as possible.

Animation lock is not your ability to Use one skill right after another, animation lock is your inability to move out of the way while in the middle of a Skill.

If you can click five skills in a row and immediately use all five skills, there will be no tactical combat, it will just be spam. Combos will be useless and god knows PvP will be unplayable.

You're acting like these WS's won't have a TP cost. If you start with 1000 TP and one of your WS costs 500 to activate, you're not gonna be spamming very much by blasting your TP reserves into oblivion.

They may very well adjust the TP cost of weaponskills too and change the way combos work or consume TP. I don't think it's very safe to assume TP use is going to be identical to the current system.

That's why other MMOs use a simple thing called a "global cooldown."

This would be yet another example of "Just because you can doesn't mean you should". Sure you might be able to spam skills without a tactical thought but it's probably not a good idea. Until we get a gameplay video showing a player fighting tough enemies being rewarded by just spamming skills with no thought, your fears are unfounded.

I think you are forgetting that combos require positioning, and that you cannot continue a combo if the positioning isn't correct..

I think this will go a long way to address the biggest problem I have with the current battle system where it's mostly just melee sitting around while BLMs nuke the hell out of everything because they don't have to build up their primary damage resource.

I'm not saying it can't work. I'm just saying, I get worried when people try to fix things that are not broken.

[Ruisu]

That combat looked incredibly fluid, much like what this game should have been like at launch. So long as they keep the combo system working as it already does, I have almost nothing to complain about in terms of combat for this game.

You know SE is going to do the battle system right...they have in all the FF's (yea even 1.0)...they aren't stupid an it won't be a spam fest with no strategy. No need for panic... The game is in good hands now.

And if people are smart they won't unload all their TP at the start or else your tank will /murder you and you will be shunned as a noob

Don't worry peeps... It'll be just fine.
