if you go to options- game - etc there will be something called reserve attack, which one is faster? multipile times or once?

None of them make you attack faster, but some are helpful for melee vs range, cause with reserve attack you can hold an arrow before you fire it, instead of auto firing. for melee I have it set ot multiple times I believe, so that if I click multiple times on an enemy before I reach it, my character will continue to attack, so I do not have to time my attack clicks.

You can only hold your shots with no reserve or single reserve. Multiple reserve will auto fire when it reaches maximum accuracy (note: this is not 99% if they're moving).

I don't really notice a difference with range, but turning reserved attack on makes bolts act weird. Neither will make you aim faster, though.
Do set it to "Once" if you use Final Shot. The skill is broken without that setting and you'll have to waste precious time clicking more than you have to, otherwise.

If human/giant: Off. It auto-fires your shots, messes with magic bolts, and screws up your N+1.
If elf: Multiple if ranged. Spam cannon anyway, so not much point holding shots. Off if melee.

Any of them is fine. My attack patterns don't really suffer from any of them, because I can compensate for each very easily.
The only time the Reserved Attack option actually matters is PvP, in my opinion. And that's only for Ranged.

It only acts that way if you click numerous times. You can N+1 and magic perfectly fine with reserve attack, exactly the same way as no reserve. The only difference is you don't have to spam click for every single hit.
