dynamis

2 things. i notice the auto target always picks the targets furthest from you, this needs to be fixed. Also, is there any way to fix the lag in dyamis so u dont freeze up and die all the time?

I don't think either of these is a Dynamis problem; auto-target does that everywhere - Odyssey is really bad for it, and I see it sometimes in Abyssea, it's just more noticeable in Dynamis because of the casters and rangers that you'll inevitably target. Definitely something that could use fixing, but I bet it's a "no budget for development" problem.

The other problem sounds like animation lock? I've never noticed any particular lag in Dynamis, but if you're grabbing a bunch of monsters at once it can be one of the nastier zones for animation lock. Another mechanic that should be fixed (it's basically giving monsters free Terror on their attacks in large groups) but probably can't with the resources available (need better bait for the intern traps.)

Autotarget seems to prioritize ranged monsters such as blm, maybe because it considers those more dangerous.

The lag is linked to using certain addon, and if you're in an alliance where most of the players are using those specific things and then in an alliance where they are not you'll notice the difference. When many people in the alliance are using a specific addon you're effectively ddossing everyone else in the alliance.

It's been years since that whatever Dyna-D runs had, there's always suggestion to always do /autotarget off. Can turn back on once dyna runs over.

I feel like the targeting the thing not right at you did not happen before... but maybe I'm just not remembering it.

I do have it happen to me now as well in any case, and I have been wanting to file a bug report about it because, again, I feel like it didn't happen before... but maybe it's just my memory being bad.

The report will likely go under "working as intended" in any case, but yeah, it's weird to say the least, and dangerous...
