    He wouldn't even need to adjust anything with the default settings it's fine.. If there's a fruit behind you you angle the cam towards it and hit the right directional.. When the morbal casts you hit cross near a fruit/ filter with left or right on the D pad I have done this dungeon so many times on PS3.

    Have you tried activating Fight or Flight as soon as you pull and doing as many Rage of Halone combos as you can while it's active? Cuz people do all kinds of derpy stuff and complain about aggro.

    For example, if you are cross-classed into something like Fracture and worrying about applying it right away, your priorities are not in order.

    Honestly I'd be more worried about the last boss. A lot of derpy melee dps get cleaved by that boss and a lot of derpy tanks cleave their party with that boss. Really, I presumed that was what this thread was about.

    Even if people did agree to your proposed change, even if SE agreed to it, it's not like it would happen overnight. Right now you have the tools at your disposal to circumvent your problem. What makes more sense... Begging SE to change their game overnight or to find a solution to your problem that players who have had the same problem and have overcome?

    If it were really so impossible to do, I am sure that more people would be agreeing with you. But it isn't, and many people have found a way to work around the problem.

    I am ps3 player too. Deafult setting would do just fine. You might need to zoom in a little so you won't accidentally select something that is far away from you.

    I had run it with my tank, healers and dps. It is not a easy dungeon but not to the point to say I hate it.

    This, right here, is the correct answer. The game's targeting is dependent on your camera angle and then, from that angle, chooses what the system thinks is the closest target from the way your character is facing. It's a stupid way to do it, and it's been refined since beta where it was a travesty, but you can manipulate what you target by rotating your camera.

    So yes, it is the system causing the problems more than the player, but once you know this, it makes it much easier and you'll never miss a fruit unless a party member snatches it out from under you. Because of the way the fight works, the tank should never not be by a fruit because of how the boss moves.

    I am not a bad tank. I have commendation achievements, and my only 50 is a Paladin. I have tanked up to T4. Fight or Flight is on a macro with Fast Blade. I know how to play my class.

    Please stop insulting my intelligence.

    While I don't doubt you have issues targeting NPCs while fighting, and that other people have had similar problems, the game gives you options to expand or limit what you can target in battle. I've played both on PC with a mouse and controller and presently play exclusively on the PS3 and the only time I've had problems targeting was with the mouse. I honestly don't see how people make that work. I've ran Vale repeatedly, much to my chagrin, and the only thing I hate about it is it's general difficulty and those people that insist on hatching all the morbol. If it wasn't for that I'd have a better opinion of the dungeon. Never has targeting been an issue for me in there, as any role.

    PS3 player here. I have no problem selecting my fruit in AV.

    You might need to change your click targeting to include objects. I just press O to disengage the mob, then face my fruit and click X.

    Some people would rather always blame the player first than acknowledge a game's faults and shortcomings. Sure you learn to adapt to them and some might even feel proud about it but I'd rather things worked properly in the first place and not have to jiggle the camera and mash A until it finally targets what I want, and yes that's an exaggeration, there's not that much jiggling involved.

    you must be a pretty good tank, with ilvl 75 you are able to tank T4. My tank is at 78, and I am still too chicken to tank even T1
