Spell and song manual interruption

Lallafa

Dalayan Beginner
Any chance of making a second click of the cast spell interrupt the spell?
Ducking is too slow. EQ had this in year 2000 or so. Why not here and now?
 
How is clicking the "d" button on the keyboard slower than hitting alt+# or moving your mouse to the spell gem?
 
Because you not only have to click D button, you have to start casting the spell again.

You:

cast spell
crouch
uncrouch
cast spell

whereas, you can:

cast spell
cast spell (interupting old one and starting new)

Meh, ducking isn't hard at all. Certainly if it was switched, it really wouldn't affect me all that much.
 
Oh wait so you're saying as a bard, you can't hit like "1 1 2 2 3 3" etc to twist like live? I think that's been in since the game was released.

Haven't played a bard here though to see how twisting works, sorry.

Just becuz bards were mentioned

Hotbutton (name)

1st line /stopsong
2nd line /cast #

or something like that. ;)

Maybe it will help someone who didnt know that little bard tidbit.
 
Yup yup yup.... Just tested it with an uberlistic lvl 1 Bardtwistinator!...
/cast (insert spell gem # here) and /stopsong commands do in fact work here so bard do have an interrupt.
Make 4 hotkeys (one for each of the first 4 spell gems)

first line of each should be: /stopsong
second line of each should be: /cast 1 (then 2, 3, and, 4 respectfully)
Then load up the 4 songs you want to twist in the 1st through 4th spell gem slot and let the twisting begin!
 
This is for any class. Just so you can cancel a spell you started.

Instead of ducking, un-ducking, and recasting, you just click the spell again, and it'll auto interupt the spell, and already start recasting it. This post doesn't need flaming. It's a neat idea, and would only help. Shouldn't be a number 1 priority, but it would be nice to have.

This is a suggestions forum, for those who are lost and thinking they are in general disc.
 
Most of my hotkeys that involve casting a spell I have "/cast #" written at least twice to compensate for fizzles. Do you think this would have an adverse affect?
 
lol you're wanting to remove the need to duck, which is the same as the ohh crap lets stop that channel and start a new channel of magical powa. this cast on the fly stuff is just silly :p its like a light switch of power not a the faucet(sp?) it should be.
 
Just giving my two reasons against the current setup: Hotbuttons have a small delay after each line, so twisting is slower, and I already have 5 hot button slots taken by equipment, so no space.
 
There are alot of silly things in this game that don't quite add up RP wise. So, this suggestion is just as valid :0
