Since it is possible to do a large amount of damage and elicit various effects when you stop your melee attacks and cast magic, if we were to allow melee attacks to continue throughout spell-casting, the resulting damage output would be significantly higher than that of melee jobs. Furthermore, the balance of long casting times for powerful magic spells would fall apart. Due to these reasons, we will not be changing this.

*sigh*... —_— quit asking for stupid ***

I think they should adjust the delay between hit and casting. Casting shouldnt add a longer delay melee hit.

lol sure~

i totally misread the guy's comment /sigh
I feel dumb lol.

but they should allow melee while casting. it would make perfect sense for a rdm a drk or a blu. But if its a higher tier magic than yeah, it should be like normal casting.

Idk, I even for those jobs I think it's too much. I think it is a major part of learning your job and developing your own technique, skill, and timing at your job.

i think it'd be kinda cool to be able to take up to 2 steps while casting... i think due to minor lag, i end up interrupting myself by casting too early(before my character fully stops). i don't think that would be too much to ask.

I think this happens mostly because of the server/user delay.
If one dual boxes, you can see this delay by moving your character and viewing such movements from the other character's point of view, you stop moving , but it takes a second-ish for the server to register that you stopped moving.

i know i have to wait the second, but i wish i could just cast immediately after taking my hand off the movement keys. I think being able to take 1 step while casting would even allow this to happen...

Anyone who list RDM as one of their jobs on the official forum should have to answer the question "Where do you stand as a RDM in a group fight?"

If the answer is anything but "In the backline with the rest of the mages" or something along those lines they should put them in a special pen where they can discuss all the awesome melee RDM ideas that the Devs can just ignore.

Although I think they enjoy these questions as it gives them a question to put a long winded "NO" answer to.

The real reason they can't change this is because of BLU. It wouldn't overpower RDM, DRK(loltheirspellssuck), or any of the other jobs. However, it would make BLU even more retardedly powerful.

BLUs are the best example of it not being necessary to allow casting during attacking.
