Target Lock, Back Pedal & a Prayer?

Target lock gets disabled because its honestly more of a hindrance than a help.

Especially in a lot of more recent content where mechanics and stuff happen outside the arena so are invisible if your looking at the boss. Combine that with bosses getting bigger and bigger if you use target lock they can easily take up 3/4 of your screen..

The camera does need some changes doing good it though that's a fairly common comment even just being able to zoom out further would be a massive help to many players. As at least then you could keep yourself and the boss on screen and still have a decent view of what's going on around you.

The camera fixes would be phenomenal tbh. I honestly just want changes to tab targeting. Probably the worst targeting I've had to deal with in a game lately lol. Especially in pvp

That is the response. You don't need to use target locks when you can just select the mob and fight it. Moreover, there is an option to "mark" it and have it's HP bar appear on your screen without being locked on.

There are options on how to play the game; some people like using the lock on feature a la Zelda, some don't.

What you want is disabled lock-on and legacy camera movement. If that doesn't work for you, sorry, but the game is hardly unplayable, and this is hardly a problem.

I said "This might not seem like an "issue" per say, and you're right. But it is an annoyance. And here's a few reasons why."
What I want, is to have the camera adjust keeping me and my target in frame while moving, IE, Target lock. I don't want to be forced to back pedal or unselect the target or toggle off the lock just to move away from the target.
What I don't need, is you telling me what I want when I very clearly denoted I'm not looking for a user side fix as one doesn't exist. The goal, is to fix the jank of the feature and make it usable. Not to ignore it.

Ah, how far we come from...

:D

What you are asking for is a feature of an option to not feature that option.
So when people say "don't use it" it may actually be the best advice we can give, regardless if you want to hear it or not.

Huh strange, cause that's not what I said. Are you familiar with sophistry per chance.

I uh, I don't think I mentioned anything you specifically said.
We're all just trying to help and you're being quite combative about it.

I didn't ask for help. I pointed out something that doesn't have an end-user solution and needs addressing via SE for it to be properly fixed and usable.
