Steps

I noticed the bug only during the ifrit fight (hard mode), after changing my targetting settings to "setting b" every time. I am using a controller.
The problem: the targetting system (during control "setting b") is unable to recognize the Infernal Nails summoned by ifrit during the fight as potential enemy-targets, until they have been dealt damage ( by other players or by Area of effect damage). As a result , there is absolutely no way for the player to choose the Infernal Nail for an attack with the controller, until they have been dealt damage one way or another.
