In version 2.0, we’re creating the UI with the following conditions in mind, which means that there shouldn’t be too many situations where you would need to type out NPC and player names with macros, etc.

Targeting Party Members

You’ll be able to decide the rules for your party member list and change the order to your liking. It will be possible to target by indicating TA1 for the tank for example.

Targeting Enemies

We’ll be implementing a command to target the enemy closest to you
We’ll be implementing a command to target enemies that have enmity towards your character

By implementing the above, we believe it lowers the number of situations where typing names would be beneficial, but we are also planning to make it possible to target via direct name input for /invite and other commands where it is necessary.

We will be announcing specific feature details in the future.
Awesome!
We get all the good options AND direct name input!
