The complain about the current system and the reason people are requesting auto-attack is due to the feeling they are spamming basic attacks. Thus, they feel, "why should i have to spam this button when the game can do it for me". In that they are correct, they shouldn't. But they shouldn't be spamming from the get go. The original reply I made in this thread was directly related to a gladiator who felt that they were spamming heavy slash and it wasn't fun. I merely pointed out that that is in fact, terrible strategy, and adding on my own opinion that that is why people are uncomfortable with the current system.

You are right when there is absolutely nothing to do you can press heavy stab, will you be spamming it? When was the last time you spammed a basic attack outside of a behest as a glad? I would hope that by level 50(I can assume your sig is out of date) you're not doing that.

Doing leves on 2 star, sure there is no reason to do anything but spam light attack. How would that change with auto attack, you just wouldn't have the chance to use your abilities period. Is that more fun?

There are deep rooted problems with aspects of the game, but if you look at it objectively you can indentify those problems and set up a gameplan for them.

I do nothing but spam attacks. What are you fighting that causes you to feel this way? Behests and low star leves. Answer? Fix those 2. I don't see how a REWRITE OF THE SYSTEM is better.
