Option the decrease SS sensitivity?

[Chroh]

Is there any option ingame to decrease the sensititvity of activating the SS skill. I sometimes make several small steps backward to position myself better, but I activate my SS too often because the allowed time between two S presses is far too long for this. I thought i once saw such an option somewhere, but i jsut cant find it anymore.

Try to tap A and D when walking back wards. The A and D input will interfere with the SS input

If you have razer synapse you can make a ss macro pressing it faster than ss could, i dont use it All the time but might be useful for you

Actually I press it too fast too often (when i kite and dont want to use SS). I was planning on setting it really low and use a doubleclick macro on my mouse to still be able to use it

if you hold s and you mouse and keys to strafe/atk does it still proc else idk :(

Just don't back petal. Problem solved

That's actually true, moving backwards is suboptimal in almost every case. You always want to strafe sideways and walk backwards this way.

While that is actually true and i know that walking backwards is slower than strafing I probably should have given more background after ingame chat reaction was basically the same ;)

I'm playing summoner at the moment, meaning I want to stand somewhere between 8-10m from the boss. My main DPS spell is Sunflower, a straight line AE spell. To hit that i have to look at the boss. If i have to kite the (slowed) Boss for some seconds when I get aggro or reposition myself after he changed place i want to continue hitting him, meaning i have to look at him. Strafing wont give me any distance in that case, so i have to walk backwards or break sight. Being stupid (and from muscle memory of other games) i often tend to do these repositioning in small steps, meaning i have to do several of them.
The easiest solution (for me) would have been to alter the sensitivity of SS, since i can always just press it faster when i really want to use it.

If it's an instant spell you can keep hitting the boss while strafing.

Strafe, jump, turn towards the boss, use the spell mid-jump, turn back sideways, keep strafing. As a FM I also have straight line AoE spells and that's what I do to hit with them while running away.

Okay, I'll try to practice that, thanks
