Either of you know this trick?

Was browsing the Guild Wars support forums in anticipation of not being able to read my keycode (again) when I install it on the new machine tomorrow. In the process, I stumbled across this (http://support.plaync.com/cgi-bin/plaync.cfg/php/enduser/std_adp.php?p_faqid=3737&p_created=1141930842&p_sid=L5vXcy2i&p_accessibility=0&p_lva=&p_sp=cF9zcmNoPTEmcF9zb3J0X2J5PSZwX2dyaWRzb3J0PSZwX 3Jvd19jbnQ9MTk3JnBfcHJvZHM9NDgmcF9jYXRzPSAmcF9wdj0 xLjQ4JnBfY3Y9JnBfcGFnZT0x&p_li=&p_topview=1) little gem of an in game shortcut.

Question How do I call targets or select a target someone else has called?http://support.plaync.com/rnt/rnw/img/trnsp.gif

Answer To call a target, you simply press Ctrl+<space> (or Ctrl+Shift+<space>) to send a priority target message to all members of your party, including henchmen, minions, and pets. When you call a target, a special red icon that looks like a target will appear to the left of your name in the party list.

If someone else has called a target, the red target icon will appear to the left of his or her name. To select your party member's called target, press the letter "T" on your keyboard or click the target icon. You will instantly select the called target. In order to attack, press <space> or click a skill icon to initiate the attack.

Gonna have to give this a try.

I was completely unaware of it, but it does sound handy.

That would help immensely, as it would allow you two (as spell slingers) to call targets for the henchies. Right now they seem to follow me around like puppies attacking whatever I attack, even if my target differs from the group leader's. I can't figure out why, unless they are preprogrammed to follow the melee PC as main assist. It's annoying at times because I may be trying to tie up a mob or pull it off a healer or spellcaster, and when they all switch to my target another mob just walks right by and starts attacking said healer or spellcaster.

They attack whatever the person who hired them attacks. If I remember correctly you can tell them to attack a target by using space (or something) and then target something else yourself.

You're still playing, Tul? Any interest in joining our regular Thursday night sessions? We're into the Kryta plot missions now, and the three of us are all sitting right around level 16.

Providing I can get it to work again ;)
