Auto Attack wins!

[Kaedan]

I used my job abilities alot while auto-attacking and that concept isn't the same in this game as 100% TP is not required to fire off a skill, anywhere from 250-3000 depending on the skill so it shouldn't be too boring.

Personally I was a very talkative person in XI so aside from building TP and firing off JAs I was having a conversation and interacting with my fellow players.

Oh, let me guess? Samurai? That's why I said "most melee jobs". Samurai and Thief were exceptions.

It's great that you play the game to have conversations... some people actually play the game to play the game.

So you're not from the "More group content, stop catering to solo players, this is an MMO, if you don't want to socialize go back to single-player RPGs" camp?

Umm... you can be in groups and be "social" without spending most of your time in combat chatting away incessantly while waiting for your character to build up TP. We also have this nifty program called "Vent".

Vent... how "NA" of you

I suppose you were one of those DDs that just whistled at 100% TP.

While other people had to be puller, had 1st provoke shifts to eat the shadows, then had to crossbow bolt the enemy for def down and other debuffs. And perish the thought of advance techniques like pulling before the enemy is dead, for chain 4-5-6, etc.

Vent... how "NA" of you

NA? As in North America?

If that's what you're implying, we had Japanese players on Vent all the time. And when they had trouble with English, I helped them translate.

If you don't get the the joke, I don't think you're quite qualified to talk about FF11 party tactics and society. It was rough and draconian. Everyone was pressured to be at 110%.

I played DRK in FFXI and I was kept very busy with drain's, absorb's, ACC and Attack buffs, weapon skills and so on with auto attack. Really Kaedan it is just starting to sound like you were a bad player in FFXI if you just let auto attack do it's thing every battle.

He doesn't get the "NA" joke. I think he's not a regular.

Umm... I played FFXI for 6 years and was a leader of an endgame shell and officer in another, and I've never heard of "NA" except to refer to North American players.

lol FU Alexia.

I didn't do these things. Those are the things I saw people doing. The bad AA implementation in FFXI encouraged bad gameplay by bad players.
