Make the Point Emote Show Where You're Pointing

Make a little arrow appear pointing down at the thing you're pointing at. There are a lot of people who speak moonrunes near me and I'd like to be able to communicate with them that they don't know what they're doing.

W8 - Cult of R'lyeh, til the deeps called us back.
W9 - Tartarus, til death/wizards came for the land itself.

Your character is already pointing at something, no further pointer should be needed.

When you're pointing at anything beyond 5 tiles from your character (which is the maximum most people let others to get to them) it becomes increasely difficult to determine what is pointed at.


+1 for small arrow over the tile pointed at like is done when youre in combat.

Why are you so opposed to everything? Always with the same harsh attitude, as if your words have any authority on C&I ideas.

+1 to the idea, custom clients have the highlight feature, having an official one would be great for communication.
Emotes are generally useless fluff, however an actual way to pin-point items to people would be useful. I could see this on my hotbar.

they don't, so why bothering mentioning it? This is second or third time I've read this in last 24 hours. Make a sound argument and move on. Some people are just passionate about their ideas.

I think this is a better suggestion myself.
