Especially walls/doors etc. I can see maybe turrets being targeted but not walls and doors, or other inanimate objects like weapon racks in PvE. If I want to target a wall or other inanimate object, it’s not moving, so it’s easy enough to click on. I don’t think we need this hotkey to do that for us.

The biggest place where this gets in your way is when fighting near a wall, on a wall, or especially through a breached wall in WvW. Often, when I try to switch to the nearest enemy I end up targeting the wall, and then have to hit tab and hope that it targets the enemy I was trying to target.

Target nearest “enemy”. It should do that. Thank you.

This one I disagree with only because there are many situations when the object is what I’m trying to target so I can get rid of it but enemies are constantly getting in the way.

Even if enemies occasionally get in the way, it’s surely easier to target an inanimate object than it is to target a moving enemy. And I’m not suggesting that tabbing shouldn’t work as a means to target walls etc. I’m just suggesting that the hotkey that is for targeting the nearest “enemy” works only to target enemies. Maybe they can add another hotkey that keeps the current functionality, a “target nearest enemy or object” key. I just find the current functionality to be really frustrating, especially in WvW.

Add a second bind option called “target nearest enemy player”, similar to the one in WoW. VoilĂ .
