    You. Must. Be. Kidding.

    The D-pad method of selecting entities is a well-thought out method of being extremely cumbersome, because of the number of button presses required to seemingly simple tasks. For example:

    In a party of 8' if you are the healer, (default #1) the tank is default 2 and 3, and so on; prior to any big fight covering everyone in stoneskin is common for WHMs. To do this (let's count the number of button presses) you must:

    Activate the cross hotbar (ACHB) 1
    Cast spell (C) on current target 2
    Deactivate the crosshotbar (DCHB) 3
    press down (dn) 4
    ACHB 5
    C 6
    DCHB 7
    dn 8
    dn 9 (additional down presses, or hitting the select button are required as you go thru the party
    ACHB 10
    C 11
    DHCB 12
    dn 13
    dn 14
    dn 15
    ACHB 16
    ...

    That's 16 button presses, so far, and the 4th dude in our 8 man party still doesn't have stoneskin.

    TBC, next thread.
