Make melee range abilities automatically move to target

[Zeturion]

It is frustrating when I use aoe and then when I need to generate mana with melee range attack my character stays in place and swings at air even though I mouseover the target. It it the worst with bosses because I often can’t see if I’m close enough. I do mostly DoT and can’t verify if I’m hitting the target due to too many numbers.

Other recent threads about this already, would be better to support those threads than create a new one for the devs to have to go through multiple threads.

Add option to move to target when it is out of range of melee attack

Please consider adding an option to enable ‘when I trigger melee attack but my target is out of range - move closer to the target and then do the melee attack’. With the current game it is often frustrating when I move to target to attack but misjudge and stop just outside my melee attack range.

It’s in bug reports forum…

What?

[DesireDemon]

their implementation is just as bad as their implementation of WASD. why is it that i can only enjoy good melee in this genre only in grim dawn? its bad in POE1/2 as well like the devs have no clue how to do melee properly.

Also, another reason to support existing threads about the same issue, instead of creating new ones, is that you may stumble upon someone who found a workaround, or even better, an option that’s already in the game, such as this:

@desrocchi

It’s already in the options, I stumbled upon it yesterday by chance.

In “Gameplay”, the third option is “move to melee attack enemies that are out of range”

So now it will be even easier to find.

It’s as easy to find as it was before. It requires players to search the forum, which, as can be seen, most don’t and would rather make a new thread.
