Instant swing.

[Little Owl]

It kind of takes the dexterity component out of weapon speed to a degree.

I would anticipate people precasting explosion, running on-screen, dropping precasted explosion then ebolt or flamestrike with a followup instant heavy crossbow hit. Run away if the heavy crossbow doesn't hit and repeat. Your only defense is to immediately load greater heal or offscreen as soon as you see the opponent, since you cannot count on disrupting them (magic reflect could be up). Same thing would happen with a potential hally hit for 50+ damage.

Not sure if that is what people would like. Maybe it is, I don't know.

I concur with Little Owl. Correct me if I am wrong, but this is not enabled on any of the top shards for a reason? At this point, we have to make sure any future changes appeal to the many that left hybrid. Not suggesting this does or doesn't...

I'm all for trying this out on a test center.

OoOoOh...

Maybe only allow instant swing on archery weapons

Make archery great again

We also added Instant Hit as an option to the dueling ruleset (located under "Combat Abilities").

FYI.

Haven't read 7 pages, nor do I intend to.. what about insta hit in the field, but if the person has evaluation, then the weapons can't do special moves? Would that be hard to code? Would that make people happy?
