[Tip] Double Pressing Ability Keys Drop Targeted Abilities!

So, last night while running HRC with my guild, I stumbled across something I didn't know before.

Pressing an Ability Key such as Healing Springs will bring up the AOE placement Circle. Sure we all knew that. We also knew to drop that ability, you could click your mouse and it would fire at that location. Though, for abilities like Nova, it doesn't work if you are holding block.

What I didn't know is that if you press the same key again, it will fire that ability at any point that the crosshair is aimed at, as long as it is in range!

This applies to Ultimates such as Nova as well. I thought this was an awesome thing to find out, and for someone who has been playing since launch, I never knew this was possible. Perhaps something new?

    This would be cool. I always used a macro that used the skill and left clicked for things like healing springs.

    Yes, it's something new with this patch. I read about it a few days ago and have been enjoying being lazier while playing :)

    As a healer, it also reduces the time I'm accidentally throwing light resto staff attacks while spamming Grand Healing.
