When fighting monsters does it matter the moment when you press attack? Or should I just press attack buttons as fast as possible in order to maximize the damage output?
Is timing important during combat

Best Answer
As long as you swing at a time when the monster is in the square in front of you (by the way, you can hit ogres as they charge past!) then the timing does not change your chance to hit or do damage. I swing all my easy weapons first, then click the spell glyphs while all my other characters are on cooldown, to reduce wasted time.
However, it is smart to stagger your swings, as it is possible to significantly reduce your damage received if the monster stays staggered often. I aim to swing about once a second to maximize their stunned time, even though it slightly reduces my damage per second.
