Does anyone know anything about this? Or can anyone remember classic live?



This would be a big change for casters/priests that currently, on p99 they automatically swing their weapon after a cast, so long as the cast time is greater than the swing delay.

The 2nd line would affect classes that weapon swap. For example this would kill that monk weapon swap dps meta. Was that even classic?

Anyone know anything about this stuff?

I'm pretty sure its unclassic. On my shaman I keep attack on so that he can get a swing in between casts...even if you chain cast (like chain clicking your nuke bracer) the attack will go off between casts if the timer has been met. I intentionally pick the highest dam weapon with a delay less than the clicky or a proc weapon for the chance between nukes.

Can't prove it, but I think I would remember that strat from live.
