Guild Wars 2

So, our characters can turn their heads towards a target if we are in combat/have our weapons out. But can we get the ability to have this enabled out of combat aswell, or atleast as a toggle-able option for those who wants it. As the head snapping tech is already in game?

I know this is a really small thing, but as a ffxiv player on the side, this is one feature from that game that i really like about my character there. It give me the feeling that the character is more connected to the world, as opposed to always looking straight ahead.

i have noticed this behavior out of combat, specifically when something is targeted (player or NPC) and they are positioned by your side. it’s more noticeable if they are much taller than you are.

it’d be really nice if your toon looked towards interesting far of things. maybe poi’s or vistas you haven’t discovered yet…

As far as i was aware, this exists already out of combat on targeted mobs or npcs. Fairly certain my chars all do this

well whenever i target some friendly players in the game my character will not move it’s head unless i have my weapon out

It WILL move regardless of stance. As mentioned before, its more pronounced the target is taller than you, or smaller.

Yeah, if I right-click on any player or NPC, my toon will turn its body to look in that direction. If I start to run, my toon’s head will keep looking at the targeted NPC/player until I’m too far away.

it moves if i walk yes, but not when i stand still. If i want my head to snap when i stand still, i need my weapon out.
