I feel like the targeting system is controlled by a someone with an attention disorder. it jumps around from target to target, always managing to pick the wrong one and half the time there’s nothing at the top of the screen to tell you which target you’re on. when kiting, it switches targets all the time, leaving you hitting the 100% mob instead of the 2% mob. if i’m surrounded by 4 enemies, i don’t want to target the bunny 20 yards away either.

i would like to see it lock on one target and NOT change until that target is dead, at which time it would switch to the next weakest. to change you’d need to tab. also, the current target should always be highlighted at the top of the screen. idk if this is all the result of the game trying to help you, but it’s really annoying.

Bristleback can’t hit anything? Let’s fix the HP bug instead.

I just want to be able to cast on mouseover, without even picking a target.

I hover my cursor over a target, I press the keybind, and skill activates. No target acquiring needed.

I agree the targeting system does need a tweak. So many times I would target a different foe just because my character is faceing in the general direction of said foe, and it so many times would auto target a foe and not the one that is attacking me.

The targeting system needs a lot of improvement. The selection of tab targets is often bizarre, to say the least. And targets dropping or changing randomly is also a problem.

I feel very strongly that a lock on feature is needed. Even if after clicking a target you had to press another key to stay locked on to that target, until it was out of a certain range, I feel it would be a major improvement. In my opinion that would be the single best thing that could be done to this game.

Because of right click targeting, target changes and its not stable and not locked. Without of it, target surely would be more locked.
