Guild Wars 2

If you are moving while attacking a target and the enemy moves slightly out of the middle of your screen you lose the target and stop attacking .

THIS is annoying!

Is the LoS for target acquisition only 30 degrees? It is super small and very annoying, especially in sPvP.

So many of my skills fail*yes fail, not miss, fail to even activate* just because the enemy decides to move 3 inches to the left or right from the middle of my screen and they aren’t even in melee range! This is probably only one of the biggest peeves I have with this game.

Turn off auto targeting. makes it much easier to use the cleaving ability of most weapons.

Im not using a melee weapon. Any ranged weapon whether it be bow,axe rifle,staff,scepter or pistol the target is lost when the character slightly moves away left or right from the middle of the screen.

Yes they are still on my screen. I have to keep the enemy smack dab in the middle just to attack with a range weapon when holding down the right click to track the cam. Even if im not holding down right click it will lose target when I am running.

Standing still is the only way that you can have 180 degree peripheral attack. The peripheral attack when moving should be an actual cone and not a vertical tube.

This is a very annoying issue. I hope they are working on a fix for it.

The targeting system in this game is a complete mess. “target closest” works with about the same frequency as precursors drop.

Anet seems more concerned with messing with target priority than fixing the issues. Ever notice that in Silverwastes when fighting a group of mobs, hitting tab generally auto-targets the nearest non-Modrem? That, in my opinion, is malicious code, not error.

What irks me is the way that "Target Next Enemy’ doesn’t do that, it targets yellow friendlies or static items rather than actual red targets.
