auto face issue?

Anyone having an auto face issue with ps3 controller? I use ps3 controller on my pc, and ever since reinstalling windows for reasons, the auto face just seems to randomly not work at all. Any tips?

Um, not to sound stupid, but did you check to make sure it was enabled in the character options tab? Something might have switched it off? I know I turn it off sometimes when I'm healing, take a break for a few weeks, and then wonder why it isn't working when I come back to the game later.

As the poster above said...

I do not believe auto face target is enabled by default, you probably need to re-enable it in the menu.

I did have it enabled. It's just sometimes it will say something like target not in range when i am clearly in range and i am facing the opposite way. Not sure what i'm doing wrong lol. It's really annoying when you are in the middle of an important fight and it stops working. You don't have much time to re-enable it during that time.

If you are insane like me, you can make macros for half of your skills (at least the important ones) and add the line "/facetarget" before the action!

I am mostly maining Monk, but when I leveled up my tanks I found it extremely important to be facing the correct direction for casting stuns. Sometimes you have less than a second to react and fumbling around making sure you're facing the right way can be hard if you lose aggro. After I found this to be extremely effective with Brutal Swing and Shield Bash, I began using it for other important skills like Steel Peak, Leg Sweep, etc etc. Works great on pulling skills like Tomahawk and Shield Lob too! Try it!

Also if you have OCD Starcraft Syndrome where you have to have 100 Actions Per Minute you can mash the "face target" hotkey often. On keyboard I have mine set to "F" to face target. I'm not sure how it is on a controller, but I'm sure you can bind the action to a hotbar button, and it's probably found in the "Actions - General" tab.
