    you have to press Square and use Up on the d-pad. then press either Square or Cross again. and that is not even counting having to repeat the process to completely remove your focus target. that is too many pressed buttons for something that should be so simple. in the middle of combat when you have other things to worry about like positioning or hate it can be much easier to make mistakes. i have never played a MMORPG where you had to go through so much trouble to set a focus-target.

    sure macros work, but they're an inconvenient work-a-round. a more direct approach would be suitable.

    3 key presses, same as what devante uses every time he changes enemies. So for example if you changed targets using lt/rt and l1 then hold l1 and hit square. That's more key presses than dpad, open menu up on dpad and then select. If you want it on less presses macros is best.
