    Default Another skill button

    Ok so idk if this has been posted or not an I'm to lazy to look through all the old post but anyways here goes.

    Ok you kno where that skill book is on top of the 4 skill slots . Well I think that book should be moved over to the left side of the screen lik above the emote button. And then I suggest they can put in a 5th skill slot cuz seriously I use only 5 skills really and I hate opening that skill book thing up and almost dying lol.

    I think that a fifth skill button would be beneficial for all players. Hope they take it into consideration.

    I agree with the idea of moving the skill book above the emotes, and adding a 5th skill button on the top-right where the skill book was

    We do need a new skill button, or a better way to access the skill book.
    However implementing this fairly to both iphone and ipad users, while retaining the quality of the UI is seems to pose quite a challenge.

    I like the location(on ipad) but would definitely benefit from 5 instead of 4

    If the ipad has more skills buttons available than the iphone, the ipad users would have an significant advantage over iphone users. Here is where this becomes a problem:

    1- Its unfair
    2- There are far more iphones out there than ipads. While i won't delve into the potential future or lack there of for the ipad, I would assume the largest amount of revenue for pocket legends is coming from ipod and iphone users. Giving ipad users an advantage would give many iphone/ipad users a reason to no longer invest their time or money into the game.

    I love this game and i would probably stick around, but i be greatly disappointed were ipads to have what would amount to an even better gaming experience than they already have. And also the games population would shrink and the community would be damaged.

    The issue of skill buttons and space for should be addressed to both platforms equally.

    Well then, you should already be very upset. You can leave up all your skills all the time on the iPad without them getting in the way, so I guess that's "unfair" isn't it? Your reasoning makes no sense because you're comparing two devices with very different amounts of screen space. I guess they should also make the viewable area on the iPad smaller too, right? Just to keep it fair?

    My reasoning makes perfect sense and i'm already aware that ipad users can leave up there skill book. No i'm not very upset about that. Thats why i said "have a better gaming experience than they already have."

    You posed a rhetorical question to me to make your point, and to an extent that point is valid. However that point only goes so far. I could pose the same sort of question and say, "if its ok for the two devices to be so different, then why not create separate servers for ipad and iphone users? Of course an ipad only server population would be ridiculously low, but if im an iphone user, I shouldn't care, right?"

    Like i said the advantage of an ipad user is already significant, and making it even more significant will hurt the game more than it will help. Its better to take every player into account, and not a minority in order to create the best gaming experience and make pocket legends a success.

    Yeah with my new build on my warrior i really need more buttons. ive got 3 buffs i have to keep popped up, and i have my 4 skill combo. atleast give us 5 buttons so i can put my main buff down : / you should put a toggle in the settings menu. so players can toggle how many buttons they have. 4, 6, or 8 buttons, its their choice to have less space on the screen! players could then chose if they want more or less buttons and more or less space on the screen. << great idea.

    i like that idea.

    I also think it would help if the spell book did two things: 1- only show skills we have points in and not on the bar. I don't need to see every spell in the spell book, especially the ones and dont have points in. 2 - with the spell book limited to only the spell we have and are not on our 4-spell bar, it would be nice if when it was opened it was higher up, covering the first three lines of the chat and not obscuring the center of the screen. Right now it functions just fine when its cover the chat box when the box is expanded.

    Yeah That is also a good idea. It would be nice if they atleast had the spell book stay open untill clicked again. Then you'd be able to access all spells easily. But it would be nicer If they just put a toggle on how many you can have.

    i think you should have your offensive skills in your quick slots, and leave the buffs in the skill book.
    this way, you can buff before running in.

    You can, just double click the icons to put what you want on your quick slots.
