Change equips even while fighting

yes!

 

Adding pet hp/mp and autopots while getting hit mid fight is a nightmare for any class other than thief.

 

Interesting! These could be clever ways of adding more interactive gameplay for certain characters!

 

disagree

and make shadow shifting put you out of breath

 

I can see this being really neat.

I can also see this resulting in a lot of players misclicking and dropping their stuff mid-fight. Not really a downside, just a potentiality.

 

The "out of breath" thing in general is kind of a worthless mechanic. I don't think modern MS even has it anymore, though I might be wrong.
I don't really get why you're punished from doing any inventory/equipment management or changing channel from simply getting hit/being in alert stance after using a skill.

I think at least removing it for pet pot potion switching and gear switching would add a lot of QoL, especially the latter for Arch Mage and DK. Heck, even Heroes and Paladins who have a 1h and 2h weapon could benefit from it, in the case where your bucc(s) die or disconnect.

 

based suggestion imo.

I also assume to switch out between weapons you're suggesting to click on it. A side change I would like to add on would be to allow equips to be added onto Keys so we can tap than click to switch, promoting switchers. Also indirectly helps avoid accidental dropping of items when at rest position.

OR have Pole Fury switch to the 1st Pole-arm detected in Eqp tab on activation, vice-versa. But of course this would only lead to skills requiring different weapons to take effect only unlike Brandish 1H + Shield to 2H.

 

No.

too custom. Keep it oldschool.

 

Modern MS still has the mechanics, but it's only activated when you attack, not when you are attacked. (This was a fairly recent change too, GMS got it only last year.)

 

Bump

 

I tried looking this up, I couldn't find a video of what you're mentioning.

Do you think you could make a short video to show as an example?

 

Ok imagine being in zakum and changing equips and it actually lets you, despite having been hit recently.

 

The whole PA/Spear distinction is like as if NL had to put on their mobbing claw to use Avenger. It actually wouldn't be as bad because you could simply shifter to swap gear as a thief.

This suggestion would be awesome to see, there's a lot of bossing situations on my DK where I wish I could use my PA but I'm not about to walk 100 feet away and hide for 7 seconds to pull it out. As a side effect this would also put some extra differentiation between DK and Hero, because otherwise Pally is the optimal 3-6 target cleaver depending on elemental advantage

 

I gotta see it to believe it, I know what it meant I just wanted to see it that was how it is without using third-party programs.

Don't want any DOTcurrency type sus going on

 

Can confirm it is the case

 

Yeah turned out I was spewing misinformation. What got changed was that you can do things like change channel after getting attacked (but not attacking); you still need to not get hit to change equips (eg. running far away and/or binding the boss)
