I wish we could toggle/disable backpedaling.

Here's your fix.

Legacy plus controller.

Camera and character movement are completely independent.

You're welcome.

So much this, as a healer I need to keep an eye on other people and run in another direction. I can't do that in legacy.

My question would be why you need to look at other people in the first place as a healer? You usually just stare at the party frames.

If I want to run backwards diagonally and keep my camera looking behind me at the rest of the arena I can't do that. I would love a toggle purely for backpedal as I want the camera control you get in standard but wanna be able to do gaze mech etc without needing a 180.

Click with your mouse while running.

Since this is a thing: Quick reminder that Legacy Camera needs a toggle to turn off automatic camera adjusting.

Standard control enjoyers rise up. Only occasion where I'll switch to legacy is Solo Deep Dungeon for kiting on a ranged job. It let's you fire at a mob directly behind you without spinning or having to mouse wiggle. Aside from that its standard all the way. I feel it offers way more control, especially if you mainly move using the mouse. Also legacy on a flying mount feels really strange to me.

My ideal control scheme would be standard without the backpedal but cant have it all I guess.

It's called switching to Legacy mode.

Wish legacy mode worked with the "camera focus on target" enabled.

Always wanted to try playing with that camera mode but it simply isn't feasible due to the back-pedalling >.<

There are some good solutions here for controller users but nothing that works for Mouse and Keyboard unfortunately.

I use legacy movement, left-clicking while moving doesn't turn my character around...
Right-clicking, however, does.

How are you managing this? Because when I hold down the left mouse button while moving in Legacy mode, my character moves forward in whichever way I swing the mouse rather than just moving the camera around me. Only Standard mode allows the camera to move independently of my character.

This. In legacy mode both buttons rotate your character unless you are on auto-run.

I can upload a video, give me a few minutes.

One thing I will say is make sure you're not accidentally holding down both of the buttons. I do that a lot (as a default) and it makes my character swivel to wherever my camera is looking. So long as I hold down left click only, my character doesn't move along with my camera.
