Auto face target when using action.....

Eh? Why would you have to toggle it back on? Just leave it off and face the boss. Healing spells don't need you to be facing your heal target, and it makes facing mechanics (when you have to look away from the mob) a LOT easier.

Most of my fights as heals are for raiding (sometimes tanking) but as dps i'm mainly in Eureka or just simple dungeons. I've noticed that as RDM sometimes being just facing a little off will cause you to not case so I just toggle it on.. then I gotta turn it back off when I'm healing again.

It just seems like a QOL change to have this only face the target for damaging abilities.

Eh? Why would you have to turn it off? Just leave it on and dont attack when you're not supposed to and not heal when you're not supposed to?

(Edit, I've even some times been able to perform a GCD attack, turn around, then auto turn back around by hitting my attack action, and not getting hit by the "look away" attack. But thats just me I guess?)

I have tanked, healed, and dps'd savage fights, very well I might add, and never had an issue. I also use legacy camera though, and I do not use auto lock or camera lock. I used to use camera lock sometimes but when they changed how camera lock works for gamepad because of the duty action I just stopped using it.

No idea why people turn this off, or use standard camera or leave that "Action not ready" error message. It drives me insane watching a youtube video and the game is going nuts screaming "Action not ready" action not ready action not ready over and over. Like, why would you ever want that spammed on your screen.

I guess people are just weird or something. Like the gamepad users trying to use only 1 or 2 hotbars, or people complaining about ability bloat or any of the other crazy stuff I see. /shrug.

Edit:
Another funny thing I notice is people playing like a Paladin, and then they stop to turn away from a "look away" attack and also stop doing total eclipse. I always get so baffled by that type of thing lol.

You should have it off at all times even when you are mele its pointless to have on in fact it will get you killed on eye mechicans regardless of role. Just keep it off and manually face when you need to

I strongly disagree here. The setting should always be on. I feel its a quality of life improvement to auto face target when attacking. I mean, its literally less buttons. I almost never ever ever get hit by "eye mechanics."
