MOBA-Style Quick Cast on Release

I’d love functionality somewhere between basic casting for ground targeted abilities and using [@cursor] macros. Inspiration is MOBA-style quick cast on release. Press button down and hold it down. While held down, the targeting reticle appears. Spell is then cast when you release the key press. Removes extra inputs required to cast the same way [@cursor] does while also retaining the ability to aim more precisely.

Could have interesting interactions with empowered abilities in Dragonflight - assuming they aren’t already being designed so that you can freely aim while charging.

That’s a pretty good idea. Would be wonderful for fixing the annoying issue of putting aoes on the room too.

Feel like there is a big opportunity to utilize this type of thing with spells within WoW in general. Hold a key to charge a spell that can be released to cast at any time, doing more damage the longer the key is held down until eventual full charge. It would make a lot of specs feel less blocky.
