Guild Wars 2

I think I hit some setting that made AoE spells single mouse clickable (or keystroke), so if I just hit an AoE skill it just casts at my feet, I have to hold it down and move something to target the AoE, plz how do I change this back to default setting?

There is an option under combat/movement called Ground Targeting, is this the option you’re looking for?

Some ‘aoe’ skills are only ground targeted/thrown via traits also. Ranger/Pet’s traps and the Necromancer’s wells for instance. If they just instantly go off at your feet, while your mouse is still on the screen, you might just be using PbAoE skills

Thanks guys, the question is though, how do I reset all my settings, erase a config file or something?

Delete the local.dat file
Deleting this file will cause you to lose your saved game settings (graphics, stored login data, etc.). If you rely on your stored login info to log in, make sure you can recall what your login info is as the stored login info is also cleared. I believe it also clears custom keybindings.

The quickest way to do this is to:

• Ensure your game is completely closed.
• Hold your Windows Key and press ‘F’ to open your Windows Search.
• Search for “Local.dat”. 2 files may be found.
• Ignore the “Local.dat” file that is in the game installation folder if one is found there.
• Delete the “Local.dat” file that resides at:
  “C:\Users\YourComputerUserName\AppData\Roaming\Guild Wars 2”
• Load up your game normally.
• You will notice that your settings are reverted to default. You should reconfigure your game settings once again to your preference.

Thank you so much Stin!

:D You’re welcome. I hope everything gets back to behaving how you want it to.
