you try to cast Valkyrie, but are in hit recovery lock and can’t, but trigger the CD anyway as a result). The second bug as mentioned above involves triggering skill cooldowns even if you fail to cast the skill using QC (e.g. The first two are that using QC will interrupt click-hold to move and you have to click to move again after QC has done its visual “swap” on the UI. I was afraid there were going to be issues with them trying to preserve the original UI while implementing quick cast. The split second “change” on the LMB or RMB when using quick cast is interrupting the static aura, meaning the change on the skill bar isn’t merely visual, it actually swaps the aura to off due to the change. When you cast shield or teleport it will briefly, but that’s not really an issue.Īhh, now I think I see where this is going. If you bind hammers on the left and auras on the right, your aura will NOT deactivate when you cast hammers with quick cast. You can bind quick cast keys to the left and right. Having said that, I wouldn’t mind if they did also let you bind auras on the left side as you suggested (and I think we should be able to set LMB to force move), just saying that you can make use of the current quick cast system on a hammerdin. This may end up meaning you mostly never actually use left click anymore if you’re force moving with a keybind and pressing a hammer keybind, but you can utilize quick cast with both hammers and auras without having to use shift and without deactivating auras when you quick cast hammers. I used Q for hammers and had a few aura keys on the right and set charge on left to a mouse button. I tested this on a paladin just now and it works. IE: if I have quick cast on, bind hammers on the left side to a key and press that key (not the actual LMB), I will instantly cast hammers without having to hold shift. You don’t have to hold shift unless you’re actually using the left mouse button. I only want to use quick cast for skills such as frozen armor/thunderstorm/bo/bc etc This was a great feature, just poorly implemented.Ĭurrently if you want to use Quick-Cast, its entirely useless because if you have Hammers on the Left Skill, and Quick-Cast on the Right Skill, then you still have to hold Shift to cast hammers while the Aura is active to make sure you dont walk and stand still. In my opinion, using teleport on RMB is faster than using quick cast one keyboard button. With the current system, when you swap to any aura, it will permanently overtake any active skill, and this is a deal breaker for a lot Hammerdins that want to use teleport on RMB. Secondly, we need to give Teleport skill the same status as Auras for players who want to keep playing the same way but have teleport on RMB. First, we need to allow quick cast skills to be bondable to both LMB and RMB. What you are asking is more than just “make paladins be able to use auras on left click”. This is because auras supersede “static” skills like teleport. Hammerdins cannot use the quick cast feature like other characters can due to the aura status mechanics. When you swap to your aura it’s instantly active! But now with the new quick cast feature, it’s working against you. I think what people missed is that Hammerdins already had a quick cast ability with regards to using their auras. If implemented, Hammerdins could map their main Aura “Concentration” onto the Left-Skill Button and use the Right-Skill for Quick-Cast. Quick casting on the left would then swap off and back every time you pressed it. If they added a force move you could set to left click that would be nice for people who don’t want to have to use a different keybind for it. It’s already possible with the existing system to simply put the attack quick cast keys on the left side and put auras on the right (quick casting an aura will swap to the aura and stay on the aura already unlike other quick cast abilities that swap to the ability, cast and then swap back). Quick cast works for both left and right button skills depending on which side you’ve bound the skills to, so you can already quick cast hammers on the left without having to hold shift.įor example, if I set Q to one of my keybinds and click on the left button on a paladin and set hammer on the left side to Q with quick cast on, pressing Q will cast hammers without needing to press shift. Currently, for Paladins, only attacks can be set on the Left Mouse Button and thus “Left Skill”, but the Hammerdin in particular (One of the most iconic builds in D2), can currently not make meaningful use of the newly implemented Quick-Cast feature.
