Speed Issues: Auto Buff and Skip enemy turn

[jared71]

Auto Buff:
It would be great to have a one click button that you setup to cast all your buffs outside of combat when action points aren’t an issue. I love buffs and at level 16 I have about 10 buffs to cast between each fight.

Skip Enemy turn/Faster animations
You have a choice to skip dialog, it would be great to have a choice to skip an enemy’s turn, because with slow animations their turn takes almost as long as mine. Usually I only care if I die on their turn which I will be informed anyhow. There could be a skip/replay button that would be active. Once the party had made a move, the replay button would go away.

In the options setting, which I couldn’t find one there could be a faster animations/travel option that could speed up the game.

Thanks for the feedback. We are investigating ways to speed up game play, and both of these suggestions are on the list for consideration.

Press one button, the game sorts through all of your buffs, figures out how many times you have to cast them to get everyone on the team, spends your SP, applies all the buffs.

One button tap to put up every self-buff and all the ranged buffs as well, immediately. In glom and out of it. Only usable out of combat.

It took a lot of code, but fallen has been pushing for this feature for a while and I have finished it late last night.

Question- what happens if a buff such as Pureflame only targets so many people? Will it recast, or hit random people? Will these types of buffs be adjusted to hit the entire party in this case, just at the appropriate SP cost?

It will automatically adjust the SP cost to hit multiple people, in the most optimal way. I have not found anyways that it is wasting SP with any skill or talent combination.

It will always ensure that every buff is applied to every character. It makes a decision of which buffs to apply in low SP situations based on the order of your Talent menu.
