i was wondering how many actually use light attack weaving in their rotation.

if you don't know, light attack weaving is using 1 light attack in between each ability you use.

    I only bother with weaving in vet dungeons or trials. It's overkill in overland.

    If you've been on PTS, it's very clear you're going to have to. I suspect we are actually headed into a bow light attack spam era for those that stick with stamina, but we'll see. I was getting a lot of 10k+ light attacks against trash mobs and I didn't have to be anywhere near them.

    If you aren't weaving, you need to start. It's not a choice anymore.

    It would just be boring.

    By the way, since i know that the people who are saying that ac allows you to use like 2 skills in one second will come, know this, in pve, you never use blockcancel, you know why? Because it's a dps loss, you cannot ignore gcd, but by blocking you will halt your stamina regen, and imagine trying to react to an attack without ac, it would be terrible, eso is more dynamic then wow, which is why animation cancelling allows good players to distinguish themselves from bad players, and it's exactly why eso combat system is much more fun then in other games.

    Be careful what you wish for because i don't think you would like the game without ac, and it can't be removed anyway, so.

    No, but I only play healers... I'm trying to include weaving before casting Blockade or Refreshing Path, but I don't know if I do it correctly. One of my friends said it's not revelant on a healer, but if I can improve something, I'll do.

    No for the moment, or not all the time, but it will be a "yes" one day. When kitty will remember to do something else than LA then skill. I don't know, when I do, I'm stuck with it and forget to heal or throw orbs.

    I am trying to apply some light attacks in between skills but guess I am not fast enough to do insane damage parses like I have seen in zone or guild chats. By the way, animation cancelling should be removed from game. Pretty sure no one else will have the advantage over other players by exploiting a cheat/bug ZOS left in the game.

    I don't like weaving; it feels clunky and awkward and really rams home the fact that it's a game and there are mechanics. Fortunately I don't really do the kind of content which requires it.

    Animation cancelling I can't do at all. Don't have the timing, the reflexes, or whatever.

    I'm a horrible weaver and I'm not going to spend hours practicing. But animation cancelling shouldn't be a thing. My fingers can't work that fast. For these two reasons I'll never be banging out group dungeons by myself. Hell, I'm not even good enough to join a group. I'm a liability.

    Mind you- I don't use a rotation since I mostly PVP these days:

    I don't light attack weave- but I build up a heavy attack with my Inferno Staff and hold down on my Stone Fist ability (so it immediately fires after the heavy attack). So, I guess I weave some abilities between heavy attacks?
    Want to enjoy the game more? Try both PvP (crybabies) and PvE (carebears). You'll get a better perspective on everyone's opinion.

    Then why would you want to remove ac if it doesn't affect you at all? i mean you already admitted that you are pretty much a liability and that you don;t do much end game content because of it, so why would you want to take away something that characterizes eso combat, why not instead try to become better?

    I really don't get this, some people say that ac shouldn't be in this game, but they don't even understand the implications of removing it, which i already listed some above, at this point i think it's more a problem of envy then anything else, you just don;t want ac, because you don;t like people doing better then you, and that;s in general, not just you specifically, but that's what i get from what i read about removing animation cancelling.

    I can't do as well as him, so maybe if i remove this, then we will be equal, no, you won't and this is the definition of envy, envy is not, i want that thing, i want to do the same damage, healing etc as he can, envy is, i don;t want this person to be better then me, so i will try to do things to make it so he will be as bad as me, well, sorry for you, but even in reality it won't work.

    I have used it since the beta. One unknown person explained it to me briefly and I've used it ever since.

    Even with my pretty decent gaming pc it's quite hard to pull sometimes though. Game animations are just messed up, getting delayed sometimes or stuck at charging/casting... :/
