Im "thinking" its the option "Turn to Face The Mob When Attacking" or something similar to that. My UI was super cluttered, so I set it to Default and cleaned it up from there. But last night, I was noticed that sometimes when running out of a telegraph, I would jerk to a position and eat the telegraph. If that is the correct option and it is because my character is just finishing an attack, will the attack still land if I turn that option off? I feel like its a QOL option for a DPS or Healer class. But even if its a QOL option, I still dont see myself using it with those classes.

Going to turn this off tonight and see. I've been eating too many telegraphed moves - even when I'm damn sure I'm not in the way. Actually got knocked off a platform in some dungeon fight and sat there dead watching the other 3 take him down from near full as I was herping the derp.

I turned that off ages ago and it helped immensely. If you are mid ability it won't turn you but if you start a new ability it will.

I mentionned it a long while ago but yeah the turn automatically shit will make you turn if you try to use skills while running sometimes, UNLESS you use legacy controls, then it works fine. It got me to switch. I couldn't be bothered mouse snapping backwards to hit a GCD right as I was getting out of an aoe and other shit, so I changed to this setting, but the whole changing direction was a big problem too so I changed to legacy and got used to that instead. Legacy does some weird shit, notably left mouse click will behave exactly like right mouse click when you're not autorunning, so I kept turning around when I was trying to look behind me while running another way, have to get used to autorun first. The backward movement is nice at times but it also makes it harder to do very small adjustment like you can with the backstepping shit(like when you're trying to stand between 25aoes on Innocence and shit).

Seems like we're all spread out. Mostly due to the fact that creating a character on our original launch server is damn near impossible unless you wake up at 4am to create the character. Or, related to that fact.. I dont want to wait in a 15+ minute queue every time I want to play the game. Average queue on Coeurl or w/e is 45 people deep? I tried to log into my old character on our old server a week or so ago and the queue was outrageous.

avg queue on Leviathan is around 40 now that launch has calmed down

Gilgamesh would probably be the worst of all of them

Sargantas has a small que on average of 20ish. Highest I've seen was about 80ish and that was primetime on last patch day.

Well Gil was the original, and somewhere along the way people were on Levi? I'm not sure how that happened, I cant remember.

I don't see anything past 40-50 queue anymores on Gilgamesh.

Though Launch was a nightmare with 2k+ 2 hour queues.

Funfact: you can bring up your retainer and AFK and the game wont kick you.

We expected there to be a return of the queue on Tuesday for gilg, it didn't. Savage patch might see a spike but our active population seems to have reached a steady non-queue place.
