Targeting is frustrating

[mrfran]

Ok this is the most frustrating i've encountered yet in the game... whenever i wana target monster.. i have to really be accurate on my clicks because their mass is so small.. i become ineffective as ranged whenever im getting ganked by 2 or more mobs at the same time because of this because whenever i miss click guess what happens? it runs like leeroy jenkins towards the monsters

also whenever im in a party or just with groups of players... when players mob a single target.. i try to target the monster and i end up targetting the players mobbing it..it really does annoy me at times

Spells..hayyy same thing... monster gets mob by bunch of people and u lost that arrow thing pointing at their head... u hotkeyed an offensive spell tried clicking on the monster and poof... ur targetting a player..

just a suggestion:
-make an auto target hotkey(similar to the ALT auto-loot)
-on PvE make spell/target priorities... meaning support spells target priority goes to PLAYERS-offensive spell priority goes to MONSTERS!!!!!!! and for PvP.. i haven't tried PvP yet but if player is on a party.. same concept..

I do believe in the options there's a 'snap' function. What that does is that it's, supposed to, not sure if it works, is that it will lock your cursor onto a target untill you move it away or the target leaves the general area around the cursor...

Also, don't magic people have that ice spell that slows the monsters down to a ridiculous speed?

Well I play a rogue, so I most likely have no clue what it's like...

well i do have that snap thing on... and that's not what i mean.... when i hit and run 1 monster(slowed) then an aggressive monster jumps in.. so i keep running.. then when i try to target to slow the other monster... i miss my click.. guess what happens? it goes towards those 2 monsters and outcome is either i get out alive or die...

Magicians gets Ice Magic at Level 16. It slows down the monster long enough for you to pull off 2 Mind Buster(Lv 16), or 2 Magic Thunder(lv 21).


True that the targetting is annoying at sometimes, yet I wish monsters wouldn't run away when you are overlevelled. Ten monsters or more ganged on me thanks to that. ^_^'

yea happens to me when I try to target a monster with my magician when I'm in a large party...I usually end up targeting the party members and by the time I do target the monster, it's already been killed >.<...

Same, when the target monsters crowded its very hard to select it

P.S. whats the autoloot command? I forgot :p

[mrfran]

lol ALT ... it's semi-auto loot -_-....

hopefully they fix this.. there's still alot of shaping up for this game i guess

easiest way I found to fix this is not having any mob targeted then pressing F whatever offensive spell, the mouse turns into a sorta circle like cursor and when there is a monster within that area the spell will shot that mob, only thing that suxs about this is alot of times you end up shooting the wrong mob with w/e spell in large groups and having to run long enough for u to get ice off. tho tab targeting and a /assist macro or key would make things hella easier.
