Easier Crossbar & Targeting VIDEO Tutorial

[Michelasso]

I know that the L3 button draws the weapon IF you do not have a target selected, if you have a target selected... it WILL apply LOCK-ON for the camera. I know sometimes this can be an issue, I've been looking for a workaround, but haven't found any except IF you know you will be switching to attack something... just quickly double tap "O" to cancel any selected targets...

Well, there is a solution. At the cost of one button. Just use the sheath/unsheath main action. That's what I did because I was getting crazy.

Still you didn't mention that this setting messes up with the weaver configuration! Not a big deal, one just needs to add the crafing log in the DoH action hotbar.

I haven't tried the weaver class yet... although i have it setup... but i have logs pertaining to each class always on my hotbars. ie... hunting log on battle class.. fishing log on fisher... etc.

I haven't thought about using the main action for stance... i think i will actually implement this to my R2+O crossbar because I noticed that if I am already locked onto a target, i sometimes accidentally activate that skill... which is "mark to ignore 1" lol.... my party is always like... "huh!?!?" haha

Yesterday it was a mess. I switched to CNK to do some dungeons fast (you get selected immediately as a healer) for the loot, and the new setting drove me crazy. That stupid Lock is ridiculous! Why didn't SE put a single button for sheathe/unsheathe?! I am going to write a bug report for that. And I want it on L1. Such a great job the did with the game on PS3 ruined by the most stupid things.

Yeah unfortunately lockon is attached to draw/unsheathe... I don't have too many issues with it, but I guess i trained myself to do a combination of buttons subconsciously.

Another hint: if you are in unarmed mode and get attacked just use auto-attack on the enemy and it switches to armed mode with all the most needed hotbars. My problem is that since I use mages I removed it. That's why I was doomed.

And yes, L2/R2+L1/R1 cycles through all enemies selecting them!! Another life saviour that I discovered only after 25 levels. It was simply a nightmare to switch using arrows and then X. I also tried using the arrows as in the hotbar in your video, that didn't do much. Now instead I do FATEs switching between enemies in a breeze.

hmm I should try using the auto attack button instead of the stance button now that you mention it... LOL! as for using the arrows like in my old setup... i removed those once I had more skills. I'm a bit OCD and I don't like empty spots on my crossbar... LOL!

It is mentioned that with 2.1 we can config the button for sheathe/unsheathe only without target-lock if we wish.

Same thing happened to me while playing on Friday
6+ years without issues (the original fat 60 gig model) then bam
Is it the yellow light? Because that is fixable
You just need to change the thermal paste on the CPU and GPU
I will be repairing mine this week.
I do also hope SE adds more menus for us

[Jonathan12uiz]

thanks.. that helped a lot... too bad we cant exclude summoner's pet which are friendly units.. i get sooo annoyed targeting those at fate/dungeons.

i'll try the L1/R1 switch later.. im sure that'd come in handy.. ^_^

kuu! Lemme know how you adapt.

Excellent info! I've been playing less than a week and this thread has been a tremendous help!

Glad to hear!

Yeah mine was a FAT 40GB... never any issues. I believe the fan just died and it overheated... I'm not using it at the moment so i can try and save the HDD...
