Mobile Do you guys think autoswing for everything is cheating?

[shroomed]

On the one hand, the core design of the game lets some items autoswing by choice, making these weapons better, but on the other hand, no autoswing makes weapons like the pally hammer useless on mobile unless you have hands with surgical precision. Are you guys gonna use the old autoswing for everything?

Really I think it comes down entirely to the individual player's style, and how they like to play. The nice thing about the options setting for it is that everyone is happy!

 

[Daruki]

I think it is mobile friendly.

 

[Sciffles]

I think it is for people who can't get used to the new controls.

 

[SkunkBr]

If it's in the game it's for use

Lmao exactly.There's a reason why they put the auto swing in-game.

 

[SladerDNJ]

I think it is

 

[Chimerabot]

Agreed...

 

[Penta]

Not really , It's been a while since I played mobile so I've kind of forgotten which weapons have auto-swing and which don't. but IIRC it's there to make the game more mobile friendly cause people would have to keep dragging their finger left or right on their screen which would kind of hurt eventually.

I use the universal autoswing and it's better than clicking 3 times a second...

Yes, but it's a straight upgrade to dps…. I'd say that's unfair to the other platforms.

Then add it to said platforms.

It’s still a straight dps boost that items weren’t balanced around

Then it could be made so you can only use it after a certain point (Post Golem?)

Well, it’s probably fine for melee and summoner. Ranged and magic would benefit WAY too much from it though (imagine an autofire phoenix blaster or sniper rifle)

Yeah but Summoners only need to use their weapon once to have a summon appear which is basically permanent unless you exit the world or cancel them

That's why it wouldn't be overpowered for them.

Isn't it already part of all of them?

Literally no summon weapons have autoswing.
