I dont know if this is possible to implement, but i would like the capability to continue auto-attacking while moving my character around with WASD.

This is the first mmorpg that i have played which this is not possible (character stops attacking as soon as i hit a movement key). i find it very inconvenient and believe it will handicap melee pvp ability.

    Agreed, I'm a fan of kiting and it's pretty frustrating when I have to click the target everytime I move.

    another thing is if you jump you need to click or have a direction, you can't just jump to evade an attack...

    I'm all for kiting (I'm playing cleric)

    You haven't played many MMOs then, or for that matter, any good ones at all.

    L2 got it right, they dont even give you wasd movement in the first place! <<<333

    well now that i think about it, i guess this kind of implementation would benefit ranged more than melee... so now im in favor of keeping it the way it is

    If an Archer could keep attacking while kiting in the air, anything melee wouldn't have a chance against them.

    Why don't we just let Mages cast while running, Warriors stun at Archer range, and give Werebeast Earth Shield?

    how about we just make it melee that gets to move while auto-attack, so ranged can't and we can't move while casting unless the casting time is 0.5 seconds.(I don't think there is any.)

    Although that would be really cool, running at your enemy, casting the first spell in the game for mages, jumping up and flipping before throwing the magicly conjured sutra at the enemy.
