Autoattack on one-handed sword for rangers has two leap skills in the chain, and these skills are really annoying.(The second and the third one in the chain)
Depending on situation:
-It makes you unable to dodge or use other skills for a short duration

-If trying to walk away from a target you will leap back

-You can’t position yourself around the enemy, because it locks you in place.

- You can’t interact: can’t finish off people in pvp or res someone. I often press F 1-2 times then I notice that surprisingly my character isnt doing anything, but by the time I press F again my character leaps again…

-If your foe jumps over a gap, you will try to jump after him/her and fall down, and possibly die from falling damage.

-If you hit a foe in stealth once(especially in Shadow Refuge) your ranger is probably going to leap over your target with the second leap chain skill, because of this it won’t reset for a few seconds and you keep jumping with the leap skill 2-3 times, which makes it impossible to hit the stealthed foe because the character is out of control.

Please change this skill, because honestly I don’t think that autoattack is the proper place for a leap skill. Maybe it could grant swiftness instead.

Yes, Sword autoattack has been a problem forever, but they have no apparently seen fit to do anything about it.

Incidentally, you might want to add Sword to the title, so we know what you’re talking about.
