Targeting: Lingering Issues

[Brannigan]

Another small targeting issue I've had is when selecting a sub-target for a friendly spell (for example, I am fighting a goat and want to cast Cure on a party member), their name doesn't get highlighted in your party window. It gets highlighted if you select them as a main target, but having it during sub-targeting as well could save you those fractions of a second that can be crucial when using skills like Cover, etc.

In total agreement with you about this source of endless frustration... I was resorting to memorizing the party frame list order in order to be able to navigate blind, with only the target frame as a help. Knowing where every member was positioned on the list, in order to quickly decide whether up or down was a shorter path to targeting them; it was only partial help, since parties keep on changing and people drop out and newcomers don't end up in the same slot.

If we are going to ask for the ideal situation, having both a permanent frame for the aggressive target (gotta keep an eye on those DoTs and debuffs), and either the party frame, or in case there's no party, a separate friendly target frame definitely would make things easier. If both permanent and temporary targets are shown in the party frame, that would definitely be a wonderful bonus.
