Using the Tab key to cycle through enemies within range is a standard feature every game in the mmorpg category has. Its a really minor feature but so vital to the fluidity of the gameplay. Why is Regnum Online the only game that does not have this?

Yeah,it will be kinda useful key,it seems like NGD takes from other MMO's just useless things.

Indeed. its not like the feature would give any unfair advantage or hamper the object of the game in any way. It just means that you spend less time mouse clicking, and more time nuking whatever it is your focused on.

It would be a nice feature, nicer still if you could tweak it to suit your needs, ie select allies with low hp as a conj, enemy barbs as a knight etc. Only downside is it would be a useful addition to anyone making bots too.

There i disagree, you got to draw a line on automation. Targetting shouldnt be intelligent.

The UI should provide tools that make easy to do what you have in mind to do. However it should not think for you.

Example: You see someone on low hp, you should be able to easily target him. But you shouldnt have a key to target someone on low hp, where you might not be even aware of he is - thatd devaluate awareness skills etc. etc.

Ideed for a conju it will be useful a key like that,maybe you cant click the guy coz of too many dudes around him or he is moving.
But i agree with enio,a key like that will show how skilled are conjus..(i mean for conju)

I think it is better to not have such targeting "candy". Nice things are simple. Just keep it simple and fix all bugs and annoyments. No need to be like WoW or god know what "cheesy" game.

Keep it simple, keep it fun. This is what i want from RO.

Im afraid this feature would just bring many more bugs and abuses, as Ieti said. I would rather stay without it...

As mentioned, that's taking it a bit too far. Simply selecting the closest enemy and cycling through them is all that's really needed. Targeting allies should be done through the party tabs anyway.

auto-target is nice feature but realy no vital, bug fix or ui custom are more important imo
