    Whys that.

    Dumbing combat down even more will just make things dull.

    Right now heavy for resource, light for damage / weave. Makes sense.

    Well, I wouldn't say that heavy attack for resources really "makes sense".

    In fact, light attack weaving/AC doesn't really make much sense either.

    That would mean: No more finger hurting for some people, because weaving is not a good thing for everyone!

    Just unbind your light attack button. Boom. No more light or heavy attacks. But I'll keep mine, thank you. Resource/ultimate regen and light attack weaves help out tremendously to me.

    So have a combat system the same as all old mmo's, instead of the somewhat progressive system we have now? I'll pass, actually.

    And? Are we supposed to lower the bar then?

    Someone: “Hey Doc, it’s hurts when I do this!”

    Doc: “then don’t do that”.

    What do you suppose we replace it with then? Our left mouse buttons will feel left out.

      In the mmo market where there is a plethora of games with the combat style u mention, maybe one of those are better suited to u.
      This combat style is different if u dont like it, Leave. Dont ruin it for those who came for the combat style.

      What purpose would this change serve?

      Why not get rid of 4 of the 5 active skills and the 2nd weapon bar while you are at it, because they only complicate life. Everyone should only have a standard attack, 1 active ability, 1 weapon and 1 ultimate - that way we'll have to think even less about how we fight.

      You have a standard light attack and a standard heavy heavy attack for all weapon types.

      Just think of them as standard attacks and you can make yourself happy.

      This would make combat and rotation at overall so much slower that it would become boring so, no thanks.

      If the attacks actually felt good. But it is just a swing without feeling of impact or heavy lifting.

      It feels really bad. And after 1h of playing I am already getting tired of it.

      I would use auto attack. Definately.

      ok first off I am wood elf stam nightblade I have no reason to heavy attack I spam my stuff while light weaving and do pretty decent damage. For me and I'm guessing me only heavy weaving isn't fun, I love every aspect of the game but that. Now I am 100%sure every single person in this thread has played a game or 2 an thought to themselves, "if they would just this one thing this game would be a perfect game." Now does light and heavy weaving attacks make the combat more fun, engaging, and complicated, I'm going out on a limb here and say for you guys yes it does, but you are not the entire player base, I'm sure there are tons of people in game that don't post to forums simply because they are afraid of the responses they will get, and just perhaps light/heavy weaving attacks isn't fun for them as well.

      So your logic is, "If it's already broken, why not break it even more?"

      no attacks, no classes, no skills, just hugs.

      game would finally be balanced.

      The only problem with light attacks I have is that they are based on your PC performance and internet connection. LAs are significant part of your dps so players with lower FPS or slower internet will lose solid chunk of dps even if they are masters at their class and do their rotation on 110%. This really shouldn't happen.

      So is it heavy attacks you don't like OP. Or is your actual problem resource management, as that's a different argument and relates to the Morrowind changes most probably.

      Just talking about getting rid of attacks doesn't make alot of sense, but if your root cause is resources have that debate?
