Repeating attacks

Post by fable »

I find that I have to repeatedly right-click on a target to continue attacking. If I hold down the right mouse button instead, the target sometimes moves out of range, and no attack occurs. On the other hand, my party members not directly under my control perform repeated attacks with ease. :rolleyes: Is there any way to speed up repeated attacks when you're in control of a party member?

ESC -> Options -> Game -> "Selected Hero Attack Automation (Dungeon Siege I)"
Change this from the default "off" to "on"

Thanks--but that only works for melee and ranged attacks, according to the info in the game, not for magical attacks. As I'm running a combat mage at the moment...

Not sure why it would say that, it works for my combat mage (just tested and confirmed).

Interesting, because I'm quoting from the dialog box that appeared when I clicked to change the setting. I'll give it a whirl, and see. Thanks.

You're right, and the dialog box is wrong. Attacks repeat using that control even if you're focusing on magic.
