Skeletal Archer not working without target

Ever since last night, my Skeletal Archer skill isn't letting me use it without there being a target. I've been able to use it without targets around before as far as I can remember, and with it being a Self-target skill, there shouldn't need to be any other targets around to use it. Someone in one of my RP guilds mentioned being able to use the Skeletal Mage fine and hasn't reported this happening.

Anyone else noticing this?

    Oh, forgot to mention that every time I do try using it without a target, I get a message in the top right saying "you do not meet the requirements to use this ability". I've never seen that before; it's always either no message if you cast a skill that needs a target but there are no targets, or the 'that enemy is too far away lol' one if you try to use a skill on an enemy that's out of range. I have Prevent Attacking Innocents turned on, but it's ALWAYS been turned on, not just since last night, and even then you get the 'you're prevented from attacking this person' message when you try to target a friendly humanoid NPC with the option on.

    Whoops, I meant the Archer or the Arcanist, forgot the Mage was the base skill.

    Anyways, I tried remove it from the bar and readding it, that didn't fix it. I reverted the morph back to the base skill and that didn't fix it either, nor did reselecting the Archer morph. Traveling to another zone to see if it would reload after redoing the morph ALSO didn't fix it. I'm having the same issue; can't use the Archer without a target, if I try to summon it without one I get the "you do not meet the requirements for this ability" message.

    Obligatory @ZOS_GinaBruno ping.

    I had the same problem and found it was today's update of the NoAccidentalStealing addon. It mentions that it affects necromancer criminal activities in the change log.
    There is a setting in it, I set it to 0 and my skill are working normally again.

    I just noticed that unless I tag a mob or it tags me I can't cast the Skelly Mage and Skelly Mender. I did try casting it out of combat and yes, it does now say I don't meet the requirements when I try. I wonder if they made it a combat only cast to stop people getting bounties in town?

    Coggage, do you use the NoAccidentalStealing addon? If you do, see my previous post.

    Ah, I missed the update! Thanks so much. :) I adjusted the safety timer to zero, although I might restore it because it WAS nice to have just in case I screw up. :D
