Q:

so since HoT launch the battle camera is ONE OF my absolute favorite things about the expansion. I’ve fallen in love with gw2 again, mostly due in part to the new battle camera. I’ve used it constantly past few weeks. however today, I don’t know exactly when (maybe after I completed a story mission), the battle camera now no longer has the “X” to signify that I am in attack range of an enemy, and I can also no longer target an enemy by right clicking. its weird. its making it difficult to focus or even fight properly. I’ve died several times BECAUSE of whatever is wrong with the camera. can someone PLEASE help me figure out what’s going on. I can be directly on top of an enemy and still the circle and x doesn’t appear, and I cant click target anymore either. what the hell happened?! please help. =(

If there isn’t already a merged post for the battle cam, we should make this it, because I’m having issues with it as well, but they are more subtle and just as kitten ing.

The biggest issue is casting priority. SO MANY occasions have arisen where skills refused to activate or were interrupted, regardless of if they had a cast time or if I was even being attacked. Sometimes, I’d just be standing there, hit an attack button, and watch it go on 3-second cooldown. Other times, it would be several seconds before the skills activated, as if they were lagging or waiting for something else, but nothing else indicates as much. This seems to happen ONLY in battle cam mode, and usually within a few seconds of using the mouse buttons to target/attack an enemy.
This leads me to believe the mouse is severely disrupting the keyboard commands, and more than once I have died because of it.

I guess I should also note it happens regardless of 32/64-bit client or whether I’m in expansion or core maps.
