Super Good Advice Part 1:How to Highlight Targets

If you are fighting an enemy you can hold the right thumbstick down( Or you're platforms equivalent) and it will highlight the enemy letting you see them through walls and stuff. Really good in PvP against players who run circles around rocks.

You're welcome

    If this really works in pvp, which I'm skeptical but going to try, this is something that needs to be fixed.

    yeah just tried it out, it at least drops on stealth, but its still very OP, that should be removed from PVP.

    It should be fixed not removed. I agree that tab targeting should not allow you to see players through obstructions but would be near impossible to focus a single target without it considering the nature of pvp(many players constantly moving).

    It should be removed in pvp i agree.

    Part of the game is about using line of sight to escape the enemy. With tab targeting you cannot get away since you are always highlighted.

    In a scenario where i go attack someone and that one player has 2-3 friend's come out of stealth.. i should be able to use terrain to loose my opponent's with line of sight. Not play ring around the rosie until i eventually get out of combat to stealth or just eventually die after they catch me.

    The thing is... i do not want tab targeting removed from pvp. Just make it so the silhouette cannot be seen once it's behind terrain. Tab targeting is great for calling out healer's so people can tab target them and focus that target down. Using it for purpose's related to this is good but to basically wall hack someone from escaping is poor implementation.

    If Zos cannot remove the silhouette of tab targeting while behind terrain just remove it.

    It's op and the game is about using line of sight to escape?! Everyone's running around with a sky cam. The ability to focus your attacks on a single target is hardly op. Maybe if we had a forced first person campaign, but until then...

    No one should be trying to get away in PvP. Stand and fight and don't hide. So you die. Move on and go fight them again. This crap with Nightblades being able to just be gone or a sorcerer teleporting away is just plan crap.

    that target highlighting is canceled once you are away a certain distance. ~50m if you do not want to be highlighted while cowering behind some tree use an invisible potion that cancels the effect aswell.

    More advice: don't depend on the target lock to actually help you target that enemy, because zos nerfed that too.

    It's comments like this that makes me hate PvP. Act like a lemming and only have a few minutes of your life wasted. Seriously, The Charge of the Light Brigade was not sound military tactics.

    It'll never happen, but that's an interesting idea. Groups would have to send out scouts and rely on intel, just like, well, real war.

    I don't believe that you actually want people to "stand and fight."

    you just want them to stand.
