Yeah, it has been obvious for some time that vanguard is dead and silius is a poster child for burnt out developers. As was predicted it sits besides matrix online in the "not dead, but not very alive" category on SOE life support.

That said I did like defensive target and you can actually write something fairly similar yourself in WoW. It supports the notion of a "focus" target which you can then use in macro's. So for example my priest has a heal macro that allows me to do:

If I right click then heal me.
If I click with a player targetted then heal that player.
If I click with no player or a hostile mob targeted then heal the focus (eg. tank).

The game has no abilities that use it in terms of do something to X which causes an effect on my focus target. But then neither did my Cleric in vanguard.
