Guild Wars 2

I don’t know if may be I’m crazy or what not but I’ve noticed multiple times that I will be fighting some mob in PvE and my target has somehow switched from the mob to a team member some nearby NPC. I’ve also noticed that I will be targeted on some mob and suddenly I will have lost the target completely (and those abilities I just used are now wasted and on CD).

I’ve seen this against regular mobs as well as event bosses. Anyone else experience this? Sorry if this has already been posted on.

Most likely due to Autotargeting turned on. It basically will switch targets on the fly… usually to the one closest to you. Promote Skill Target is supposed to lock the target to the one you are currently hitting.

I have autotarget off and I have this problem too. My target will change for no reason. I have friends reporting the same thing happening to them aswell. I dun know.

Happened for me with both auto targeting turned off and on. Either way, if it was on, auto targeting doesn’t (I don’t think) target friendlies.

There is a setting for ‘lock target’. Check mark it. This was driving me crazy, for a while. That fixed it. Errr, what pmiles said. ‘promote target’.
