    Since 406 I had no curser unless I leave a box on the screen like my character box, or another info box. I've read through and haven't seen anyone else with this problem. Everything was fine until 406.
    I've tried rebooting it doesn't work.

    I'm running windows 10 with all the latest drivers. Nvidia 980

    Thanks

    I think I found a bit of help. If you go into your settings by pressing the 'escape' button in game, then on 'Game', scroll down to the bottom and make sure the box marked
    "Force targeting mode for combat" is checked. This eliminated the problem so far for me.

    R29 has introduced a significant change in our targeting system that places a greater emphasis on reticle-targeting, as opposed to cursor (interactive) mode. To toggle between the two, you can use TAB to toggle the cursor on and off, otherwise game interactions are strictly done by the reticle in the center of the screen.

    Thanks for reporting!

    I've tried 'tabbing' and I do get the cursor. However, when I 'tab' to get rid of the cursor, I can't do a damn thing. I can't open doors, I can't use the damn reticle. If I'm not mistaken, I should be able to place the reticle on a target and click on the mouse, right? (As if I had a cursor) ... Or should I be doing something else to activate the target?? I have to admit that I am no fan of the reticle, and I believe that everything should be operable using the mouse. If not everything, then the mouse and direction controls on the keyboard. That works just fine for other mmorpgs, and if it ain't broke, don't fix it. Please.

    Thank you for the feedback. Regarding the reticle interactions, you are correct. Aiming the reticle at objects and double clicking should be interacting with them.
