Things that FF14 needs to improve upon

[Zaniel]

Sticking specifically to combat/gameplay related things:
The Tab targeting is absolutely terrible. There is no reason at all why when I have something punching me in the face that my Tab target should select something else 30 feet off in the distance. There's also no reason why when I have a mob flagged as a potentially hostile target specifically centered on my screen that the tab targeting should snap to a non-hostile water elemental way off to the side or in the far distance. If they can't make it smarter they should at least make it more configurable so that this sort of thing doesn't happen if you don't want it to.

They just need to shorten the length of the targeting cone to half(?) its existing length. The logic is that when you are tab targeting you are cycling immediate threats which are usually right next to you, if you really want to target that mob standing off a mile away a simple mouse click is enough (not sure how this would affect consoles).
