Cancelling the ability is not a bug, the bug is that it resets your ROF.

Again it was against a computer (so no lag which makes it a lot easier), and with monitors it is abusable. With the explorer against guardians though it's a lot more interesting.

My point of view is that this is not positive for the game. Using it repeatedly to machine gun shoot and cheat the reload animation is not legit. You can use this with any unit that has a special shot including monitors.

The monitor video is what I mean. We will ban it for events.

I think garja does it with iro and sharp shooter as well when he is treasuring.

It’s impact is only as marginal as the person abusing it. I am pretty sure I could use it to double my treasures in age 1.

Yeah it must be just so easy to be iro and have a tamed polar bear tanking while the warchief is simply raping treasure guardians with his machine gun

Why is this even being discussed? If you want fast firing weapons you should play cs go.

I will not play vs someone abusing this mechanic. Good luck finding games

tbh fast firing monitors would make for really great bm when you've already won

How do you know you've already won, though?

I've come back from lost situations where my opponent
-always had twice my army
-knew what I was doing the whole game
-knew they won already so stopped playing

It's a fine line.

Maybe i am doing it to fast or clicking alot.

No, right click doesn't cancel it, you have to use the hotkey "stop"

That explains why I suck at fast-shooting.

well maybe we'll end up with this as well as Sioux karni martas. Maybe moesbar UI will be universally introduced as compulsory and maybe the sun orbits the earth.

It's a great feature IMO. Finally we can make use of the lost treasures of Atlantis guarded by 52 renegados granting our explorers 10 hp!
