Hey there everyone!
I have a few casters with caster melee weapons and I was wondering if there is a possibility of turning off (or disabling) the auto attack feature. It is quite annoying to hack and slash at my enemies when I am casting and would prefer to be at a range. If you know any way to help this issue or a way around it please help!
Thanks
Disabling Auto Attack?

The only workaround I can think of is using spears. You can mod spears the same way like melee weapons, but you autoattack from range.

I dont know a feature to turn that off... i think your best bet is to use a spear (same kind of mods, but with a ranged weapon).

This is why people started using spears on their casters instead of swords.

Try enabling double click to interact.

Try and see if you can move the mods to a spear for little or no cost. If not, you could always just click on your enemies and just hit (S) to backup and not attack and every time you cast a skill just hit S to back up again.

Use shift when you click a foe. Use ctrl+shift+space to call a target.

Yeah, but as soon as he casts something on that foe I think he would start auto-attacking as well.

As long as you only target an enemy, (say, by using TAB to find your target) and only cast spells (not attack skills), you will not Auto-attack. If you do find yourself attacking (because you used spacebar or pinged a target), simply back up or strafe to "break" the auto-attack.
You could also re-assess your build and/or playstyle to determine if using a melee weapon is really the only/best choice. In many cases you'll find that what little benefit you get by carrying the melee weapon (or spear) is not worth the auto-attack hassle.

You'll really be doing only like 1-5dmg with your auto attack spear anyway.
