As opposed to being forced to use a crappy less efficient WS you dont WANT to use in the first place just because it is there? :-\

I'd rather at least pick my options myself. What if the added effects are worth rotating later? "IF" SE does it right, you may want to rotate yourself strategically. Like what if one combo gave you a good acc buff? or a crit buff?

Yoshi did say a while back that i think added effects woudl be more worthwhile, and that the GCD was in place to make it more important to choose what action you wish to take. But I think this was around the time he first debuted the battle system to the public.

I think he also said break boss body parts would be more prevalent? What if certain combos are best for certain parts?

Def will know during Beta.
