Disable L2+R1/L1 target cycling

Sorry if this is the wrong place to post this...

Please make an option to disable L2 + L1/R1 target cycling.

For ages this has annoyed me; screwed me over countless times during PvP.

While holding down L2, L1 and R1 cycles through potential targets. I can't remember a single time I needed this. The only times I can think of is during dungeon speedruns and there is a cluster of easy enemies.

The way I play is that I cycle through the cross hotbars with R1. And I hold down L2/R2 to use skills. As you understand, there is a huge potential here to accidentally screw things up. And it's annoying as hell, especially when doing melee LB. If I screw it up it usually goes like this: Shoulder tackle target -> still holding down L2, pushing R1 to bring up hotbar with LB -> L2 + R1 makes me change target -> I don't understand why LB does not go off.

Yes, I know there are workarounds (like change skill layout, etc.), but having the options to disable it would be nice.

Agreed. We already have a more configurable (and therefore more useful) targeting method on the left/right buttons. I've never seen a need for having a separate targeting method with the L2 + L1/R1. It's fine to have as an option for those accustomed to using it, but we should be able to turn it off, to avoid hitting it by mistake.

Sorry if I make this sound trivial, but maybe you should release your finger from the L2 trigger before pressing R1 to switch hotbars? It could be possibly due to to me being a console gamer, but this has never been an issue for me once.

Well, duh... Yes, it may seem easy to avoid. In PvP it often gets hectic and fast paced. I try to keep a cool head, but sometimes it's like my fingers works faster than the game lol (no, I'm not panicking). I have no problem with it in PvE.

It's actually one common typo that letters you type on left hand get a bit unsynced with letters you type with right hand. While the brain sends and order for the fingers to work, in very tight schedule they don't necessarily be registred in order by the hands as it takes a bit longer for it to get I to the other hand than assumed. .. .. If any of that made sense.

Holding down the L2/R2 buttons while pressing the left/right produces the same issue (activating the crosshotbar actions assigned to left/right).

Was this ever addressed? I'd like this option.
