There are too many detarget skills in the game right now. I don't remember when they made the change that using a detarget skill (or dying) removes the star token, but that was a bad choice. Targeting has become the single most difficult thing to do in PvP and with the abundance of PvP scripts, has made it impossible for legits to compete. I don't want to be forced to use scripts (even if just for targeting/assisting) to be able to PvP effectively!
There are two solutions, one of which will never happen (prevent scripting and put everyone on a even playing field). The other is to drastically reduce the success rates of detarget skills like Eruption, Fake Death, Recoil Shot, Eviscerator Sidesteps, Disaparition, etc. at least in PvP. I can understand the purpose ...maybe... in Oly, but in mass PvP or near mobs, it's bad design, I can't use next target reliably, and in the time it takes to type /target player (even partial name) the other player can put 2-3 skills into me. I can only use star token if I'm in a party, and if he uses a detarget it gets removed.
I know that the arrival of Seers has convinced even more people to download targeting scripts, and it is a dangerous trend. I suppose NCsoft will maintain its hands-off approach, but I want to say that there's too much detarget, it makes PvP less fun, and it puts players in a tough spot, either to be overly masochistic, stay legit and not PvP, or to start using targeting scripts (and scripting makes the Lineage 2 community worse off!).
Oh and also, streamline the assist function so that I can make an /assist %party1 macro instead of the two-step /target %party1 /assist. That would also help non-scripters save valuable seconds in this unforgiving automated PvP world.
