Back on topic... the whole CLICK to move + loot button = HAPPY TIMES.
Interesting. Now the real question is: Can we target portals and resource nodes?
Unless I can Death Grip them to me, it's not enough ;)Quote:

Edit: Oooh, speaking of gripping nodes, I wanna be able to root some of those quest givers. I may be the only person who reads the quests or looks at the rewards, but I can't stand when the NPC won't hold still long enough. Some of them are so jittery I am lucky to get all 5 windows open only to have them move. Drives me mad. Only thing worse is getting all followers open on the NPC to have some random run up dragging a mob that aggros the NPC or when they run up and start the event leaving you to wait it out.

Can you target a lightwell?
when soloing on difficult fights I love it when a priest drops a lightwell and if they are real busy healing the tank you can grab some heals.
I'm not sure how much it will be needed but you could plant a lightwell at the feet of your dps before a boss fight and be able to have a macro to target the lightwell, click it then get back to dpsing.
May be useful in static fights perhaps.
In light of Blizzard's recent legal victory over an incredibly robust botting program (WoWGlider/MMOGlider), I think they are probably more inclined to release some of the lock downs they had previously on the game.
Sure, the botting programs had to jump through this hoop in order to be effective, but the bar wasn't set very high. The thing about a program is that it can be methodical. It basically puts the mouse over a standard looting area checks if the mouse changes, if it doesn't, it moves it to a different space, and so on until the mouse changes. None of that information is transmitted to blizzard, so it wasn't "detectable."
If anyone played FFXI and knew the botting programs (specifically fish-botting) and all the crap they did in that game to deter botting. Stuff like, the longer you are in the same zone fishing, the worse your catch rate becomes. The fishing guage that you had to move back and forth to "real the fish in". Most of this was just a hindrance to the real players. The botters had a new program updated and released within 24 hours that automatically zoned you out every hour and was better at catching the fish with the guage than a player could be.
Just because they can find a way doesn't mean that I think blizzard should just hand over everything they could ever want, but it does mean that no matter how hard they try, they will find a way.
This same thought occurred to me the other night. It may be that now that they have legal precedent they will deal with people/programs that take advantage of things in a legal manner instead of having to make things so difficult through API limitations.Quote:

So is anyone ON the PTR? I'd kind of like to know if portals and nodes are targetable.
Yea, but more likely they can just threaten to sue the people writing/distrbuting the addons/scripts. They already handle the players that bot; they ban them. Now that they can get a legal grip on people that write and distribute the tools to do it, I imagine that it will be much harder for people to cheat unless they roll their own. The problem isn't a couple software geeks that cheat on their own characters, its that they spread the tools to cheat. Stop the spread, ban the home grown botters and it will fall within the background noise.Quote:
