Sprint Ability

[Reika]

I see you and the below poster got into quite the debate. He's wrong, but as for your suggestion, to me that would be more annoying than it is currently. Lol. You're taking an unlimited sprint and making it limited. It's already limited by a cooldown. Why would you want to limit your own speed to make yourself go slower? Would that be fun to you?

If they were to change it to overtime tp drain, then the cooldown should be relaxed pretty good on it. I don't should make you go any slower if it drains overtime rather than all at once.

As for battle situations...... The only classes that would be able to make perfect use of sprint is mages. They dont make nearly as much use of TP as a DoW, or use it at all, so it will almost always be at 1000 for them, and they dont have to worry about being at 0 any time during the fight if they accidently use it. Making it a drain over time would also help out the TP using classes, especially when it comes to moving from one spot to another more quickly. So it is also a balance issue, and can become a big PVP battle complaint because you will have mages sprinting everywhere with no penalty, unless the sprint ability is just not avaliable to mages. But looking at the footage again, it is avaliable to them.

The 3rd poster in the forums (whos idea was actually the same but didn't get attacked :/) has the best plan of using shift or an L3/R3 button on the gamepad to sprint with TP over time drain.








..............But I wonder if they already thought of all of that :/
