Guild Wars 2

I find it generally annoying, since targeting nearest seem to sometimes take targets behind the character.

Atleast targeting high ranking NPCs seem to work, “target next” picks the champion first from the mob.

Would be nice if there’d be a way to manually lock on highlighted target, instead of choosing either “Hold to lock on highlighted target” or “automatic promote skill target”.
I won’t use word “autotarget” since it can be confusing, instead “highlighted target”, which highlights the target in the middle of the screen.

Hold to lock, I haven’t found any good button for it, since holding button would restrict hand movement during combat.

Automatic promote skill target doesn’t give the flexibility to switch targets when needed. Since clearing target requires either pressing ESC button which cancels any action and require to be pressed again if skill was canceled, or left-clicking on ground which doesn’t work if right mouse button is held down, or the area left clicked has some targetable standing on.

I have no trouble choosing a target, my problem is my target is CONSTANTLY DROPPED and has been this way since launch with no sign of it being fixed.

Well, problem also seem to stem from the messed up Target priority, which keeps Neutral targets higher priority right now.

Still I find “Hold to lock on autotarget” useless, and it should be changed to a “Tap to lock on autotarget”

I am totally with this assessment of the issue. My target shouldn’t change unless they stealth or I tab to switch. It’s been irritating since the start of the game. It has gotten better to a degree, but it isn’t where it needs to be, that is for sure.

The only work around is CTRL + T, the T to get back on it every time the system decides that butterfly over there is definitely up to something no good and you should take care of it right away.
