Anyone else think airstep/leap ability is useless?

I’m almost done with my third play through of Arcane Odyssey when I realised how pointless the airstep (or leap if you’re going magic) is. Sure it gives a little explosion which can break things but I can’t think of a situation where I rather use that than a high jump or a normal jump. Also it’s literally one of the last abilities you get when it seems more like a starter one. Let me know your thoughts.

Its kinda useful for extra mobility for me

very useful, in comparison to high jump, it’s quicker to pull off and can throw off people pretty good when it comes to PvP. There’s also the utility of jumping out of the ocean easily, not wasting time trying to climb your ship or an island

I use it all the time myself that I kinda suffer when I play a build that doesn’t have it (Warrior, Warlord, Knight, Juggernaut)

airstep ig could be seen as pointless
but leap is def not useless. Its the only mobility spell for mages afterall.

for leap this isnt true

Until v1.14, airstep is indeed a bit redundant, but the v1.14 changes will make it on par w/ leap.

The clue is in the name “airstep” you can use it in midair

I use it to get back on my ship after jumping off in the middle of the ocean.

That’s about the only thing I use it for. Since you can’t T jump in water and finding the correct angle to climb the ship is annoying. With leap, you just tap one key and you boost yourself up and out of the water.

me with high ping, it’s hard to tell whether the T jump signal went through.
and also leap spell is faster than T jump.

This is very funny

Its just your opinion

Um obviously

Leap is pretty cool and usefull imo

This conversation feels familiar. Hasn’t someone else made this questionable claim before?

Also, no, leap is not useless, in fact, I’d say it’s more useful than mode and snare. Getting above your opponent is absolutely vital in PVP. Even if you don’t PVP, it’s still useful for traversing the map, getting out of the ocean, and getting into the air if you’re out of stamina.

It’s very good and useful

Sure, here’s another fellow who thinks the same. You may go through the post to get an idea of what people think of the vertical mobility skill use, but long story short, majority believe its useful (including me).

its the only good out of combat mobility
well except crash but it depends on your fighting style and the cooldown is too long to chain them
