Guild Wars 2

So lately I find in fast pvp situations I go to place a ground target (aoe or teleport) and because my camera is tilted in just such a way, the mouse goes over the icon/bar of the player i have selected and instead of being cast on the ground ahead, my skill goes at my feet and I die.
In these situations I don’t have the luxury of time to tilt my camera perfectly to get the mouse where it needs to be, and pressing esc to detarget player is not only difficult for my setup but would also cancel the skill cast. I definitely don’t need to use the character portrait to add friend/block/report etc, even when not in combat. Is there any way to get my mouse to ignore that floating menu of the selected player?
thanks

Snap to target might help you, but it takes some getting used to.

the raid party window did this to me for quite some time..

it’d be nice if it ignored the mouse hovering over interface elements during combat and just devoted the pointer to terrain/world. it’s weird because i’ve never been like, “whew, glad i cast that spell at zero range.”

it’s the worst when you try to use a teleport to just stay where you were dying

Disappointed to hear there are no suggestions for fixes. This continues to be a big issue for me

I’ve been begging for a fix for this issue for 2 years now. I even messaged a specific dev in-game and their response was quote “Well, don’t do that.” (meaning don’t click the UI when trying to cast ground target skills)

I won’t name the dev in question because I’ve been reprimanded (harshly) for doing so. I don’t think it’s going to be fixed any time soon unless more people start reporting the issue.

Did either of you try the “snap to target” in options, or no?
