Several times during pvp fights I've tried to cast the single ward and get the fun, "Not A Friend" message. Has this happened to anyone else? It's a real pain when fighting scouts as I have to target myself, cast the ward and then attempt to re-target the scout. Usually by the time I've re-targeted the ward that I so desperately tried to cast is gone and I'm in the yellow or red. It's really bad when the emergency ward gets the same message...by the time I realize why it's not working I'm dead.

<p>Usually happens if you are targeting them. It supposed to automattically cast on you since you are the target, but something doesn't seem to click right all the time and it registers you as an enemy. Another reason I don't pvp with defiler anymore.</p><p>Happens all the time in a group fight, especially if you get taunted, and that taunter is targeting his group mate.</p>

Yeah, that's what I was trying to say: When I have a Q-ball targeted it won't let me cast the single ward indirectly <img src="/eq2/images/smilies/1069449046bcd664c21db15b1dfedaee.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" width="15" height="15" />

It has happened to me several times too, and has gotten me killed too. I am solo, we start fighting and I cant ward myself unless I target myself. Very frustrating.

I guess the problem is I've reported the bug at least 3 times now over a three week period and the Devs haven't even sent me an e-mail to tell me to shut up and that they won't be doing anything about it. Crappy customer service...

<p>hehe It`s not a bug it`s tactic <img src="/smilies/8a80c6485cd926be453217d59a84a888.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></p><p>If U target your anemy in PvP U can`t heal him..so game looks for difrend person 2 heal/ward ...and it finds freindly target HE IS TARGETING (it happens when anemy had aimed U or your group freind) it`s called assisting <img src="/smilies/8a80c6485cd926be453217d59a84a888.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></p><p>If U target your anemy in PvP U can`t heal him..so game looks for difrend person 2 heal/ward ...and it doesn`t find any freindly target HE IS TARGETING (it happens when tanks taunts U and imeditly pres F1 - self aim,or scout goes for stleath and he`s been cleared from target list) U get that anoying message...best way is 2 press F1 and then ward/heal ot create macro that will do this </p><p>Nothing special actually.</p><p>/ps. Best way 2 retarget your enemy is 2 creata macro for recent target or pres TAB buton ...clicking scout that is moving on all direction it`s not best option <img src="/smilies/8a80c6485cd926be453217d59a84a888.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></p>

<p>Thanks Astor, thats a pretty good description of what is happening, I had wondered what was going on.</p><p>Maybe when we get a dev that plays a healer and is good at it we can get some of the little bugs like that fixed, or maybe its working as intended?</p><p>Seems kind of like when a wiz tries to cast invis while targeting an npc and gets the message wont work on target.. Dah!!! no kidding. I think the game should be smart enough to figure out who invis should go on, same thing for heals.</p>

<p>And I think it very good change.It helps with that mindless/fastest button smashing and bring lil tactic to that game which is always nice.Ofcourse it alsaw helps tanks taunts beter and now not only defiler is MT in PvP group <img src="/smilies/8a80c6485cd926be453217d59a84a888.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />...</p><p>/ps about that info on invisible spell,that happens to all spells/skills that had 2 have a frieindly target </p>
