They screwed up targeting

Not sure if it's related to them pulling down the shard exchange or not, but targeting is really fucked up today.  You have to get your cursor right on the object, you can't just spam the E button when close like you could be for.  Hitting Q works slightly better, but it no longer removes targeted items after they're spent (remnants, collectable nodes, treasure bags).

I can't imagine pulling down the shard exchange would fuck up targeting (but with their top class programmers, who's to say?), so they might be working on fixing something else...subtly implied, not stated.

Did you accidentally turn auto target off?

I didn't have any trouble in game today.  Maybe try resetting your key mappings to the default and then resetting your hot keys after you confirm that works.

Too late, that ships done sailed.

Absolutely no idea how it got deselected, but that was the problem.

Did it get hotkeyed to another key maybe?  Have no idea how mine got turned off, but hitting G did the trick for me.

Dude...2 and a half year break.  I'm still having "oh yeah" moments daily Tongue  Even after my very casual (actually, normal setting) first life "find the lever" tour.

You think that's embarassing?

After 7 years I just recently figured out that I can avoid "item comparison windows" while browsing the auction house by accident!

All I had to is move the mouse over from the item icon a bit to the right and place it on item description and VOILA!
So much faster to search items with slots this way, OMFG! If only someone had told me this before

I used to unslot my gear in inventory when browsing the action house in the past ROFLMAO.

I actually didn't know that.  Good info, drives me nuts when I have anything GS equipped.

You can also change enchantment effect descriptions to name only in UI settings.

Turns out there are a few workarounds.
