Guild Wars 2

What do people find the most efficient way to do ground targeting skills? Half the time when I want to cast mine, I have the right mouse button down and don’t know where the mouse is which can make it tricky if the mouse isn’t centered. I’ve mostly avoided builds with ground targeting skills because of this.

Yeah at times I lose my mouse in the middle of fighting but before I cast an aoe ability, I just make sure I know where it is. I also use quick cast so at times I’ve completed fubar’d the ability location.

Which is why the option to have a customisable cursor would be fantastic so we don’t lose it during the chaos.
Make it pulse pink or red.

You guys make me wonder what camera setup you’ve got.

Your mouse should not be so tied up that you lose track of it in the first place XD

Yolomouse is a great addon and it isn’t considered illegal 3rd party software. You can have all sorts of cursors (enemies, far enemies, interact cursor, ecc.) as well as colors, sizes and 3 or 4 default types.

My mouse disappears when I right click steer. Since most of the time I’m running and turning I don’t see my mouse. So when I need to quickly target the ground I have trouble finding the mouse. I’d use the keyboard to turn, but it is way to slow for me. If you have a better setup what is it? Personally I’d either like to see the mouse when turning, or have it always start at the center of the screen.

I like this suggestion. It could also flash/blink for a sec when you release mouse 2 (optional).

Use the ground targeting option in the options (forgot what it’s called) where if you HOLD your skill, the green AoE indicator will stay there as long as you hold it. So even if you hold your right mouse button and hold the skill at the same time, you will see where your mouse is. Then you can move your camera to adjust.
Hope that makes sense.

Using free camera option also works.

This is what I use, and I never have this losing-my-cursor problem.

There’s an option to snap your ground target to the currently targeted player, as well. And I believe a toggle you can keybind to turn it on and off at will. I’ve never found either necessary or appealing, but if you’re having issues with ground targeting, you should probably explore all available options.

st i cant move my groundskill, its stuck like its lagging, but i can do other stuff ..
