I Like Autobite

Leap+bite on contact is a great attack implementation. Primary attack is a bite, secondary is ranged (leap) bite. You've aimed and fired your secondary attack, leading your target appropriately - why should you have to fire your primary after you've already aim/fired your secondary attack in order to do damage? This makes no sense. I feel like people are just reacting negatively to a single word used in the twitter feed ("autobite = autoaim OMG nubz") without thinking through what it actually means.
It would be a shame if UWE cut this feature because of unjustified user hysteria - so bump this topic if you also like autobite!

    Because leap as everyone knows it is not an attack but a movement ability and a damn good one that synergises well with most other skulk attacks. People are negative because autobite turns it into an attack and removes the synergy between the two abilities.

    Don't feed this thread, we already have one for discussing auto-bite. Keep it there.

    QFT.

    It's not like the other one had a biased title like this one.

    Like the others said, no reason to split this off.
