It's the same thing as FFXI, you highlight the target, then you pressed attack to do exactly the same you would have if you had just clicked twice.
Except there's no Attack button.
To engage in a fight with a lock, first I have to:
Target the enemy, Press "Confirm" button, Press "Active Mode Button" and press "Lock Button"
I know there's a workaround if you just use any generic action to start a fight with the enemy, where the sequence of actions above is shortened, but that is not a proper system. It doesn't look good and feels like something that hasn't been thought through.
I don't have a problem with it, but it just doesn't feel right, even though it works...
EDIT: And if you forget the lock, you might just end up roaming everywhere without facing your target.
