and i wanted to say something about auto attacks on the last pages.
if i will play, i will miss them for sure, and not because of the perfect stats. 10-30% from my dps. easily to get that amount in special attacks.
just because when i was fighting in plate with a mob for farming/questing, i would have him fight on his own autoattack, and i'm free to watch a movie, read the news... tab space, 10 sec, again tab space .. and so Smile.

Auto attacks work, but it's not "automatically" started. You gotta right click on the target and it will start it. I didn't check to see if there was a specific key for it but it does exist.

Probably exactly why they didn't put it in. They want people actively playing, not AFK grinding.

Unless things have changed since the last build, right-clicking just uses the skill in the first quickslot (your basic attack default). They said from the start that there would be no auto-attack, and I haven't seen anything in the patch notes or any news from the leak sites to show otherwise.

Hmm, I could have sworn it even had white damage numbers showing it as a basic attack, but maybe I'm wrong. I actually learned about it from my friend and it seemed to work. I could have just misunderstood it. Not sure now.

There is no auto attack, you have to activily press skills, altho they have implemented a skill que even tho i´m not sure of how many you can que.

This isn´t an exact carbon copy of WoW thankfully even tho there is loads and loads of similarities heh

I had limited time to play unfortunately (last weekend) and was just focusing on the overall content, not anything specifically. Just an oversight is all.

well, i know it worked like dcb said. basically right click -> first attack. continous clicking right click (or a key) to do basic/various attacks.
mikey may have played another build, but like dcb, i dint hear anything about autoatacks beign added.
hope that clears for you, about our ignorance and a game in beta existing or added features.

Dont think that works, it only uses the skill you have assigned as first in the hotbar.There arent any kind of auto-attacks in TOR.

I played in the previous weekend testing and yet the launcher wants to redownload half of the game. (13.5gb)
Sadly, I can't be arsed.
Less competition to get on the servers for everyone else tho.
