Aside from the fact I firmly thing this needs to go back down too 4 light attacks to get it to proc, Like really, it's so painful in PvP and annoying in PvE. WHY DOES IT HAVE A CAST TIME? and the projectile moves so slowly. Sounds like this skill should not be dodge-able, no? @Wrobel

    Tbh, it should just recast itself when you use the proc, similar to how Rally reapplies itself after you heal with it.

    Anything else & it's a clunky mess to use.


    At the very least, it should keep a count of how many hits you had towards the next proc when you recast it (while it's still up, not if it runs out) & continue from there.

    how are we still complaining about such a strong skill. This thing alone hit me for 12.5k... come on.

    Would be interesting if they removed the cast time, I often bug it out because of that - especially in pve.

    As a magblade main, literally the only problem with assassin's will is that it the proc disappears and doesn't shoot if you animation cancel the cast or get stunned when you try to shoot it. As hilarious as I think it would be if it got buffed, it's not really a good idea.

    It needs help. By the time I finish every fight, I can't use it because I'm done fighting and have nothing to shoot at

    There is an addon on pc which does exactly what you want.
    I think the name is Combat action reminder but I'm not 100% sure

    I rather think @DDuke meant that it saves the amount of casts so it doesn't start anew and you get a guaranteed proc. Similar to how Rally works.

    Ahh yes didn't read it right, that would be very awesome.
    But well i guess we'll never get this changed just like this bug where one fully charged heavy attack counts as 2 light attacks

    It should work completely different. Either auto attack after 4th light attack (the person you attacked last), or reduce light attack count to 3/make heavy attack count 2. Another way to make it useful is that after usage it auto rebuffs.

    Correct.

    Tbh, I'm not on board with reducing the amount of light/heavy attacks required for the proc - the skill is already extremely strong damage wise (deals more damage than an Incap), so making it almost spammable with 3 light attacks required only could be detrimental to both PvP & PvE.

    Auto rebuff after proc cast is absolutely the way this skill should work.

    Right now it takes 5 light attacks, which takes 5 seconds to do. I just want it reduced back down to 4 like it used to be.

    That's exactly what I thought all the time. This gives you a 20 second window per activation and safes a ton of clunky recasting, making it way more intuitive. Let's see what they come up with this update. Probably nothing lol :disappointed:
