Can you explain to us how the new targeting system works please, so we can align our feedback around that?
1. Beneficial Target, Detrimental Target. Basically it's Vanguard.
2. Two different targets held simultaneously by the character, regardless.
3. Other target is determinded by target's target. So Bob the caster plays a nuke/heal and it hits Gnoll with nuke and since the Gnoll is target Jill the heal will hit Jill.
I hope it functions like #2 rather than #3, but #1 like VG is a good middle ground of the two.
I can't really address that yet. The question has a complicated answer that depends on a number of hurdles being successfully negotiated on the development side.
For now (as always) please treat ANY word of experimental/proposed/pre-alpha target types, spells or spell features as being HIGHLY subject to change or removal, until further notice. http://www.mapfiend.net/eq/images/smilies/8a80c6485cd926be453217d59a84a888.gif
On behalf of Prathun, myself and the EQ team, we thank you for your continued support, and we look forward to showing you some cool stuff in Beta.
