Guild Wars 2

I know that I will be in the minority here, and it may not even be possible to do, but I figure I’ll give it a try.

Would ANet please consider making an option so that when I use a ground target AoE it automatically attempts to focus on my target? (Or if I have no target, it centers on myself?) Or maybe the ability to hold shift and hit the ability key and have it do so?

I ask because I play the game with only one hand, which means I can either use the mouse OR the keyboard at any given time, and trying to move and use an AoE of that type is a bit of a pain.

It might break balance or something, I can’t really analyze it myself, but I just thought I’d put that out there though.

Very much agreeing with this. I think it would help make the game more accessible to disabled players.

I made the same suggestion yesterday So yes, I completely agree and I don’t think you are in the minority at all.

It’s strange that I have to aim my mouse where I want it to go, while I already have a target selected (where I want it to go). It’s annoying to me. I understand the usefulness of being able to aim ahead or behind a target (or between targets), but I personally don’t care enough. I would find it more useful to have it go on my selected target most of the time. An addition to the option menu would be great.

And make combat more fluid for everyone. I find it hard to do AOE spells while strafing. I have to stop, bring the mouse pointer over to the target, then use the skill. This feels very awkward and nonintuitive and causes me to try to avoid AOE spells.

its fine on circle spells but with spells like line of warding you would sometimes want to turn it around and you cannot do this without using melee range i would like to see the ability to turn aoe target.

This would deffinately make things easier for disabled players, or new players to the faster style of combat.

Again, agreed. Having this as an option is the only fair thing to do for some of the player base who have problems with mice.

As long as it is just an option I agree.
