Default attack not working when out of mana using an attack skill.

Using attack skills (Barrage, split arrow, etc) when out of mana, do not trigger default attack. This is very annoying as the default attack normally triggers and leeches mana back. Please fix!

Previous behavior can be had by doing the following:
Press default attack and hold -
Press attack skill and hold -

It will fire off your special attack until out of mana, then do default attack, and fall back to special attack when you get mana again.


Spam clicking the skill will also default attack when out of mana, but holding the skill down will stop attacking when out of mana. It will also randomly move you towards your cursor....

This is not a viable solution. It requires having default attack on your hotbar, and requires you to press hold down two buttons for every attack.

Right, it's busted for sure.
Spamming attack skill works but feels bad.

Can confirm. It seems to still work as before if you bind it to the left click, but that's not a viable solution either because that's where you want to bind move only.
Can confirm that.

I thought after reading ur comment ill be able to figure out some kind of solution. After some trial and error (swapping the mouse buttons is not a good idea) I jsut configured a macro in razer synapse. Right click down and after 0.1 s right click up. Set the macro to "Play while assigned key is held" and put it on my right click. Works fine. No adverse effect when out of the game. So far. Doesnt have anything to do with ur comment but hey its a solotion for me.

I asked support about this, they said macro of such would be considered botting and is not allowed.

Same issue with Cyclone.

Also noticed that the frames drop 60% when a out of mana event occurs.
GGG, why not puting it in the known issues? please fix this
