columbus Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 I know this is the least of most people's mind, especially considering the amount of bugs elsewhere in the game. However, yesterday when I first experienced Huttball I realized that an extra ability slot would be needed for the ability to pass the huttball. No offence intended, I believe this ability could be done somewhat more elegantly. My reasoning behind this, nobody wants to have to change around their action bars everytime they wish to queue for a PvP encounter. Likewise, nobody wants to have to add the ability as a permanent addition to their bars as it is only useful while carrying the huttball within the instance. Therefore I propose that BioWare enact one of these two minor changes to the 'passing system' Firstly: Allow players to pass the ball to each other by simply right-clicking on the player which subsequently takes away the hassle and allows the ball to be passed in the heat of the moment. Lets face it, you do not want to be searching your action bars frantically if there are five members of the opposing team bearing down on top of you. However, I imagine the main difficulty associated with this would be accidental mis-clicks, which is why I have a second suggestion to deal with this issue. Secondly: You could remove the companion circle (temporarily I might add) while inside the any PvP instance, as companions are not permitted inside certain instances, these included, that particular piece of UI serves no clear purpose. Instead, I propose that within Huttball a dedicated icon should appear in place of that. When the Huttball has been aquired this icon will activate and should you wish to pass the ball, you can simply click on the ability. and problem solved ^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bliapis Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 i like how the pass works as it is. That way you dont loose your target by tabbing a friendly and can be done in the heat of the battle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
columbus Posted January 27, 2012 Author Share Posted January 27, 2012 True, but as option 2 stated, no offence meant, it negates the responsibility of needing to bind it to your AB every time you zone into Hutball Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solyp Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 You don't need to rebind it. Just bind it to the actionbar that is normally eclipsed by your companion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cycao Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 id like to state that i really really really hate huttball. Having said that, i think clicking on a teammate would be to easy. Having to select the huttball icon which brings up the target area to pass is fine it makes it so you have to be aware of whats going on. You have to be aware so you dont throw the ball away and sometimes you i like to throw the ball to the other team if they are standing on there spawn point. i dont know i rolled a republic toon just so i dont have to play huttball 7 times in a row every night.
