[Game Suggestion] Thoughts on Targetting

First off, I would like to say that I like the new targetting system!
However, I think it needs more filters...either built in or customizable.

What I feel needs to be added is 'Friendly NPC' as a category because right now 'Friendly' targets every PC and NPC which makes it difficult to target for example the Guildleve vendors. You have to cycle through a large number of PCs to get to them.

This was mentioned in a thread in the wrong place, but without much in the way of details so I'll make an expanded suggestion for it. The idea originated here: http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t.../890-Targeting

Allow us to create custom Targetting Filters on top of the default categories. These filters would work like the log filters, turning options on or off in the list for each category.

This way, we could target exactly what we needed to when we needed to.

For example we could have:
All
Friendly
Enemy
Party
--------
Friendly NPC
Friends
Combat Enemies
Guildleve Enemies
Linkshell

Also, change Party targetting back to work like it did originally, where it cycled through in the order of the party list, and targeted regardless of position (to be able to target PCs behind you).

Thank you for pushing forward and making great improvements to the game :D

Fix the /targetnpc I can't count the times it targets me or a member. The command is explicit target NPC how does it end targetting me ?

I think what is happening is that if a suitable NPC cannot be targetted, the target defaults to you. This happens quite often, and I think a better approach would to be to not target anything at all instead.
