    Such a combat system would be rather easy to implement, the current system is already halfway there. You'd need a toggle to lock the mouse cursor in place so you don't have to hold RMB, and enable the use of mousebuttons as skill triggers.

    Targeting for projectiles and AoE already works the way you want without any addons or changes required. 

    The only thing that doesn't work currently is skills that originate at target location, as those require a locked target. For that we would need a change to how the game treats targets that your cursor is hovering over, but that could be implemented easily with a single interface option, similar to the 'promote skill target' option already there.

     

    (which, essentially, is exactly what the combat mod does)

    Yeah, basically I'm asking them to make and support a version of the combat mod ( I still haven't been able to find any new info on this mod and the website is down ).  It's not meant to replace or be better than the current version, just a different way to play.  Thank you for posting Naqaj.

Smite has a neat AoE/Ground aiming system; it starts at your feet and as you move your mouse forward it moves away from you).

    I started this poll because I'm curious how much would you pay, if any, for this option.

    Have you tried the GW2 combat Mod?  (GW2CM)  Its turns the game into a true action game.

    Sandbox means open world, non-linear gaming PERIOD!

    Subscription Gaming, especially MMO gaming is a Cash grab bigger then the most P2W cash shop!

    Bring Back Exploration and lengthy progression times. RPG's have always been about the Journey not the destination!!!

    Yes I have! I really like it but they no longer support it - GW2 original said it was okay but then there was a dispute with a moderator and he said that anyone caught using it will be banned because it puts a graphic (of a targeting rectile) on your screen.

    I'm not sure the official word but there is a link to both comments from GW2 somewhere in this thread.  I just wish they would make an official version and put it in the game.
