Suggestion: Preferred Targeting Order
Somebody suggested in another forum that there should be an option to not target neutrals (like moa) which I totally agree with. Then it got me thinking…
How great would it be if we could select the order of targets when using the auto-target or target switching buttons?
When capturing camps in WvW, there’s nothing more annoying than scouts. I assume everybody takes them out first? But it’s hard in the heat of battle to target the scouts when all the enemy npcs are close together and you’re trying to stay alive.
What if you could tell your targeting to work in this order: i) scouts, ii) guards (they have annoying bolas), iii) everyone else.At boss fights, the boss doesn’t stay targetable through the whole fight. Often, I find that when I re-target, it picks on some imp or whatnot before it gets to the boss. If only I could tell the targeting to pick: i) the boss, ii) any regen objects like crystals or portals, iii) anything else that isn’t invulnerable.
The targeting order should really only pertain to NPCs I think. Using it against other players might feel… well, a little discriminatory.
The option to preset which targets you want to target first when tabbing sounds/will be complex to implement (granted I read your idea correctly). We are not just talking about a simple check box option. Your idea would require a lot more work, that while the idea would not hurt the game, I think the amount of work required would really outweigh the benefits.
That is why I believe an option to ignore ambient creates and neutrals when tabbing would be much more simpler and effective.

Yes, you read it correctly. And you’re right about the rest. Still, a man can dream.

That is right. Keep dreaming, because some dreams do come true. Never give up ^^
