Is there ANY chance of getting a auto target key <like the tab key etc> please?
Clicking on stuff gets kinda old..

    That would spoile the dexterity part of pking in tw. People get the white bird to shield them from the enemy clicking on them. I like it more this way.

    or you know..
    you could just not be lazy and use your mouse cursor
    <.<
    on a laptop? doesn't mean you can't plug in a mouse

    mobs to hard to click on?

    Honestly I think every time I see the Uneducated people talking about how an auto target key will ruin PVP... Hello the idea is it targets NPC's(Non-Player Characters)... NOT PEOPLE aka PC's (Player Characters).

    I'm 100% for a Target Nearest NPC key usually the Tab key on MMORPG's(Massive Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Games) and RPG's (Role-Playing Games)

    So yes to this idea every time.

    A key to auto target NPC's commonly called Mobs, I'd prefer it to cycle trough the nearest mobs.

    Although I think it would make it easier to grind, I also see how it would make it even easier to "automate". People would not even need to bot in the sense of using an outiside program.

    All it would take would be to put 2 paperweights one the targeting key and one the skill macro key.
    Too often we loose sight of life's simple pleasures. Remember, when someone annoys you, it takes 42 muscles in your face to frown, BUT, it only takes 4 muscles to extend your arm and slap that mother#$@%#^! upside the head.

    No joke, bot central if this happened, as far as PVP use T targeting nubs

    If a BM does AoE in a group of mobs I need to Assist Attack after in order to shoot the same one. Auto-targeting would make this faster in my opinion.

    Assist attack is not to fast to do : click his name in squad window-->right-click it--> choose assist attack from menu. I am not speaking about this from a lazy person's point of view, on the contrary, I need to be quicker. This system is a bit slow the way it is and it can be improved.

    an auto target is the only thing stopping me from being able to play PWI with a joypad and i think it's the same for alot of people.
    WASD to move, F1-12 + no1-no0 can be programmed to do anything also.
    it would be cool kuz then u can really feel like ur playing a fighting game or console RPG where each button is a move instead of an MMORPG where ur spamming skills by pressing 1 2 3 4 5 on ur keyboard.
    u connect with being ur character easier and don't feel like ur only leading a puppet around by clicking where u want it to walk next.

    in short i think this would attract and make alot of peoples gameplay more fun.
    a whole joypad system doesn't need to be added yet. most people already have a joybad that remember keyboard keys. there is a prob tho that people can make the joypads target and attack on auto and seems alot like botting.
    so gotta find a way around that before u can just add a targeting key and endup making it perfect autoplay world.

    the Auto-Pathing is a blessing at most times, ty for that and hope targeting will help everyone to someday.
