Luminous Dark/Light Gauge

I'm literally confused as to how the GMS one works.
I was looking at the KMS one and that looked fairly simple.
I don't understand how to use the GMS one, as it is pissing me off because of the slow charging time and the need to click to change affinity, not just spam a move.

Can anybody help.

it jst forces you to complete reliance on it especially when you die or bugged. Magnus, Hilla, etc are prime examples

[quote=GoXDS]@DawnEmperor it's automatic and forced in KMS and makes more sense. where's there ANY struggle for balance in GMS one? plus, there's the occasional bug in GMS where you end up with 0 feathers on each and forced to use OTHER one for a while (start Light but then continue with Dark to gain feather, which is stupid).

you should be able to Hotkey Change Light/Dark Mode. else you'll have to manually click the one in Skills or the UI[/quote]

How do you speed up the recharge process?
And yeah, I can't hotkey it. Maybe it's a glitch due to the AB patch

The problem I have with the GMS version is that:
1. I can't hotkey the swapping. (Is that because I'm not third job yet?)
2. The light/dark gauges recharge slowly. Too slowly
3. KMS looks a lot more interactive and less "hold one key to win"

There are two skills in the beginner tab that you can hotkey, but only after you have Equilibrium.
1. Basically there is a little gauge on the left and right side of the HuD, left is Light, right is Dark.
2. You have to fill the gauge to get one wing for the corresponding side.
3. To use equilibrium when your in light mode you must have at least one dark wing filled up then you Change Modes
4. You can't switch to dark mode if you don't have one dark wing filled up.
5. You can have a total of 5wings for light and dark side, but you have to wait for the cooldown on equilibrium before you switch which as I said before wastes a wing.
6. I didn't understand the KMS version, but I understand GMS, weird huh.

its very easy.. if you even just play luminouse for about half an hour it will make sense...

[quote=LockedDOwn]t explains everything in-game, and the UI event has a help (click the ?). You dont have to click to change modes, you can hot key the change light/dark skill.[/quote]

Where can I get the skill to hotkey it?
The ones in the beginner tab cannot be moved for me.

Don't worry about it until you're level 150 and can use Equalize. Until then, just use Light.
