    Targetting/AOE Range Overlay

    Hey, all/devs. Just an idea.. you know how we have all these fancy aoe ranges, conal, circular, some moves are even apparently donut/gap shaped (arrow helix, iron tempest)? Usually you can eyeball where they're going to hit, but sometimes your aim is just a tad off.

    Can we PLEASE get some kind of graphical overlay to assist with aiming techniques. Like a glowing spot on the field indicating the area? at first I was even wonder if this engine could support something like this... but there's a certain Garlean Walker Tank thingy that seems to possess this technology which can be seen here -> http://i.imgur.com/LF8dH.jpg


    You see that blue spot, that's where it's about to fire. I think it would be cool if players knew where their attacks were going to land in a similar fashion. of course, the feature could be toggled. I hope this doesn't fall on deaf ears. Keep it real dev team. *SALUTE*
