I started a build with Amarasta Blade Burst and when I use the stand still key, I cannot attack! It’s kinda annoying because if I wanna kite I cannot use that technique at all. In fact it works if you click really close to you, but with the default attack you only need to click into the direction of where you wanna attack (same with cadence, shard of beronath, ect). Futhermore, if the skill is on cooldown, the technique works the same as the default attack (same range).
Could it be possible to make the skill work while holding the stand still key the same way as the default attack? Which means when the skill is off cooldown, I could click only in the direction of my attack whitout having to suddently click really close to my character?!?
Yeah, same thing. Cannot attack with Blade Burst unless I am targeting close to my character, unlike other skills where I can stand still and be able to attack no matter where the cursor is on the screen. BTW MrTek forced me to do this against my will :p.
I haven’t used the skill yet, but is it by chance assigned to your left mouse button? I have Empowered Lightning Nova on my LMB and when I try to cast it while standing still as you’re talking about (holding Shift and LMB), it will only cast if my cursor is right next to my character. Pretty annoying since that’s been a staple for casters since Diablo 2.
Yes it is, but the problem is still there, as with the default attack (cadence, fire strike…) I can click wherever I want without the need to click close to my character. Unless it’s off cooldown as I said, you need to click reakky close to your character while holding stand still key and ‘‘trying’’ to cast Amarasta Blade Burst.
I know there was a thread about other skill talking about the range where a skill can be used/casted. Could Amarasta Blade Burst be set to a further distance for when it’s casted? I mean if a dev could respond about that it would be awesome. I mean I wanted to make a dualweild With Hunter with Amarasta Blade burst, but if I cannot kite properly, I would be sad.
So I will wait to make this build any further and hopefully this small change is being implemeted.
I didn’t tested with blade arc, but I see Amarasta Blade burst as a skill that replace the Shard of beronath for exemple.
I guess every close range melee skill could use a hotfix to further increase the range at witch it’s being cast from your character while holding stand still!!!
