Hello everyone.

I have been working on a hybrid stat priest and have some concerns.

The main thing I find to be difficult is when I am attacking something, when I am needing to heal myself or someone else, if I am in the middle of an attack animation it seems to do nothing. So how I currently get around this is i walk in a certain direction forcing me to stop attacking allowing me to cast a spell.

 

What I would love to know is if there is any macro or hotkey to stop attacking allowing me to cast? THis would make it so much more fluid and I could spot heal a lot easier.

 

Any ideas?

The most responsive way is to disable /nc feature and attack by clicking and holding the left button down. The moment you release the left button, you stop attacking and can cast a spell.

That is an interesting idea.

While I would rather not hold the mouse button down at all times, this seems better than dying, lol.

 

Any other ideas? =P

Self-targetted skills like improve concentration can quickly cancel attack. Otherwise, no. Auto-attack is pretty sticky/unresponsive to being broken for a second or two, its always been that way.

There are other ways around it if you are only in the concern for healing yourself.

 

-One suggestion is the garment known as Musika, it has a 2% chance of healing yourself with your learnt level of heal whenever you are physically attacked(confirmed it is both melee physical damage and physical skill damage). It also has a slot for a garment card.

 

-Another suggestion is the Shrine Maiden Hat, a delightful 5% chance of healing yourself when taking either physical or magical damage.

 

-Yet another suggestion would be to use a Ring Of Resonance, with a 3% chance of healing yourself when taking physical damage(with some other nice proc's). There is no difference between the proc chances of a normal ROR and an Advanced ROR, the only difference is an Advanced ROR gives some extra stats along with the proc lists of the normal ROR.

 

-If body armor card slot is free you may want to use a Loli Ruri card in it, which grants a 5% chance to use heal lvl 3(but will actually use learnt level if you have it higher) whenever you are physically attacked(only works on melee physical hits, not skills)

 

-Finally, there is also the shield card called Enchanted Peach Tree card, which gives a 2% chance of using heal lvl 1(or lvl 10 if learnt) on yourself whenever YOU are dealing melee physical damage(not physical skills).

 

Hope this gives you some more variety in options. Cheers!

Do note the poster mentioned he wished to be able to heal party members rather than himself, as well.

Do also note i did specifically say that my suggestions are only if healing is in concern for themselves.
