Hold to Continue Casting setting is probably the biggest quality of life setting there is. I know from my own experience when I discovered this it gave me a whole new out look on the combat system.
 
I'm trying to figure out why its not turned on by default and I can't come up with a reason.
 
Please consider making it the default setting
 
Evade
 
PS
 
Consider making A and D strafe left and right by default as well while you're at it.

When you use the wheel of the mouse to cast a spell, nothing is happening.
 
That's why you can see few posts like this :

I don't think this option need to be default for this problem.

Yep- I use the mousewheel. Glad I'm not alone.
 
But 100% agree on the A/D strafe. Changing that was the first thing I did on my wife's computer before I even let her touch the game. I remember re-training myself in WoW, and seeing how quickly she picked up strafing (having never played a MMO or any computer game with strafing before), I envied her experience.

			I thought it was the default setting.  Every time I've made a new toon, I have to turn it off.  And I don't remember ever turning it on for any of my older toons, so it's not like it's remembering a setting I did previously.

			Crabine pls. Default htcc would make this game a lot more noob-friendly.

			mousewheel? I'll have to try that...

			Are you guys talking about clicking the hot key once like for Gama Ray and not having to hold it?

			You hold the key down and it recasts the ability once it's done. So like for Rampage it casts all 4 iterations in a row without making me spam the key or I could just hold the 1 button down to spam my auto strike rather than mashing it and constantly seeing "you are already casting" etc. It feels a lot more fluid than constantly mashing the same button several times in a row.

But dang, I feel like rampage shouldn't be "fluid" LOL. I LOVE mashing that button like I'm going to melt the mobs face off.
 
Also, I've found that hitting it harder does more DPS. True story.
 
(I should mention that I don't main a warrior, so I'm not very serious about playing it well when I do play him, especially as DPS :p )

			No thank you. Not all classes benefit from this.	
----
			I hate how Soothe works with hold-to-continue-casting turned on. >_<	
----
			No it doesn't need to be.	
----
			How about a compromise. Let new players know that it actually exists. Some kind of little popup that shows them the options available would be helpful.

Clearly none of you are Mattock users in Mass Effect....
