Proposing a change to Defensive Posture

[Grail Quest]

Instead of making it an activated skill, could Defensive Posture be a Passive skill that detects whether you are using Shift-Attack (and are therefore completely stationary)?
I am finding it very annoying to have to click it on and off after every little skirmish just to move anywhere.
(OTOH, when movement speed is made insane by having several items, slowing down can actually help manage movement)...

So you want it only to work when shifting this is impossible theres only auras passives timed auras and chance to active auras that effect self.
Anyway it be annoying having to press sift then let got to move (sift blocks movement) and hit next archer/mage and while you do that that mage will fill you full of holes.

Are you using Endorphin? this cancels it out, if you using a spear just pop Spear Dance and that cancels it.

charged arrows do the most damage per arrow, so I'd aim for that in the end. You should use the lower tier wayskills in the beginning though, so that you can keep up with the monsters.

Whoa! Super necro!

Why are you talking about arrows? This is the Close Combat section, and no one mentioned arrows, did they?
