I've noticed on my lower level characters that I cannot fulfill the Counterattack with Windmill training requirement.
I do everything mabiwiki suggests (back to the wall on two sides, lure mob, use wm as you fall and get up) but i just get smacked right back down. Windmill never auto activates and if I just use it while I'm trying to get it up it just counts as if I normally used it.
So can you no longer fulfill this requirement anymore?

Try spamming the wm button but don't excute it with your mouse. Timing it exactly right is kinda hard to do ^.^

Note that you might have that option "Use skill on key press" checked, in which if you're spamming the WM key that will activate it without you having to click on the ground. This was something added after the combat renewal patch, so just check and see if this is causing you any problems.

I dunno, even when ganged by the Ghosts in the event the auto-mill doesn't activate. I remember reading somewhere saying "I want them to bring back WM Counter".

I haven't been able to wm counter for ages and I have tried to a ton of times.

That requirement was ass and is probably the only reason why i'm not developing any alts. Yes, i'm serious.
I could never get it to work apart from sheer dumb luck.

Exactly. I can counter with windmill easily. I never click the ground, I just spam the hotkey for it when a monster or a group of monsters come to attack me, and it works.

I know that it still exists at least, every once and awhile I manage to get it to auto activate. Regardless, it is an absolute pain to get it to activate, I often forget the skill can even do that.

Well I'm giving up on that training req. the time spent trying to get it to work could be spent smacking some other mobs. And it stops becoming required by r8 so I guess I wont sweat it. Even on my main I never notice it activate and I used to count on that when I'm between some mobs and wall.
Ah well
