I am trying to save everyone a lot of heartache. I just played my first cata and ppl loved the opportunity to run back to town, shrine, and get back into the cata ASAP. Now here is where I see a huge potential problem. UA has a large amount of casters and we like to hit <CTRL> to megacrit. Now when you run back into town, ppl are trying to throw the shrines in FAST. These casters are used to holding in this <CTRL>. If they accidently hit this <CTRL> they have been accustomed to hitting for the past few hours in the cata they will Quick Gear Switch as they are about to shrine. Basically, unless the megacrit button is changed to something like maybe <Shitf> or <Alt>, then I forsee a lot of poor souls shrining their gear.

Just trying to help prevent some mistakes that I predict are about to quickly spike. (I prefer Shift Personally with the key placement on keyboard)


Thoughts?


Agree with this and also keep in mind that hitting for example <Ctrl> R refreshes the application and logs you out leaving you standing in game. So I would prefer a new key for expample shift.

Pay more attention to what you are doing would be my advice. Remembering to let go of control when going to town is now similar to remembering to not shrine your gear.

I doub't paul is going to change the key simply because UA has a lot of casters that don't like how it's currently applied.

I would like this changed simply because the fact that "Control" is more of a function key.

Not because idiots in UA hold Control as they go into town and into the shrine


When you hold control and for example; scroll the item drop box down (makes window larger/smaller) etc.

Don't really care. It seems all you ever worry about nick is people unable to correctly play a video game and make stupid mistakes.

When your gear is worth 7 figure you tend to want to protect your investment as much as possible. I also care about the friends I play with.

This is could be a benefit to all. The first person that shrines an MQ item will wish it were implemented. Don't say I didn' "See it coming."

GL All. No more input on this from me as many find it more important to flame me than to think about what I'm saying...

Idiot should not be plural. There is only one idiot in UA and thats me.
So lets leave it at that, ok?

just so you know if you had control held down and tried to grab an item for the shrine you wouldf quickly notice your mouse isnt holding an item and that you just changed your equipment and i dont think it will be possible to drag anything in while control is pressed

this is from what i can remember tho having control pressed does a quick switch and doesnt keep any gear under ur mouse

I wasn't flaming you, I was just saying use some common sense. The way you worded your post was as if UA had some dire need of a change to the way LS operates, which would be downright assenine if paul changed some feature just to please one guild. I realize many people cast. I also realize that you can let go of the CTRL key when going to town. I myself have learned to ADAPT. People shrine items, they die, they do all sorts of silly things, but there is a simple solution to NOT produce the result. (In your case and your guild, it is to just LET GO OF CONTROL when you go to town. Maybe spreading the word on how to avoid it would be better than a cry topic)


Also, the value of your gear means didly to me, if you don't want to lose such good gear, dont invest that much. People play with 100fg worth of gear and get the same enjoyment out of this game as you do. Stop being so self centered and making it seem like this is YOUR game we are playing.


e: Sorry if I come across as being harsh, but it has been ONE DAY and so many people are just raging and crying about this and that, and it seems like half the pro's are quitting... it's a bit ridiculous.
