GCD Ability Que

With the new changes in GCD came a change in a feature where within the window of the GCD your ability would fire off if pressed once the GCD is finished. However, the ebb and flow of battle is fast, many time I think I want one ability but I change my mind ( i need a pot or to use detaunt etc).

Please add a feature where we can turn off this que. I would like to use the ability im pressing not the one I pressed 0.5 seconds ago.

Thanks !

I agree but queue doesn't need to be turned off, just update the next skill in line, when you press the key before GCD has ended.

I've contacted both Dalen and Secrets about this in the past 1.5 months and they're both aware, but no word on whether or not they're going to fix it. It should be #1 priority imo - it's doubly punishing with the new increased GCD because you're locked out from using the ability you actually wanted to cast for even longer

This is the last I've heard about it

Honestly, any "instant cast" skill or ability reactionary needs to be straight up instant... For example, Confess! Should be able to cast at the exact same time as say Torment or Seeker's Blade.

With the extra caveat of being reactionary it deserves the extra help of being instant.

It'd be really nice to have an ability to turn it off or have it at a lower time like 300ms

Wait is Secrets back in the dev team? Last information I had was that he left because he was unhappy how changes were implemented.

No but I let him know anyway since he cyclically joins and quits the team between drama/etc, and it's a really important issue that needs to be fixed so more visibility is always good
