    Forgive me if its a little messy. Basic structure is;
    Coeurl A above list = Current target
    Red = Engaged target
    Blue = Moused over
    Green = Targeting you

    Although i feel like the tab targeting has to be sorted out properly, i do think that having something like this (as an optional toggle) would benefit some people. Its true that its a bit of a UI hog, although im sure SE can do a better job with the real thing than i can with photoshop lol, but for battles with lots of enemies i think it would save some frustration.
    Yes that right there would be great. The list shows up and you can target the names on the list by pressing left or right on a controller or tab on a KB only set up. The problem with left or right targeting only the distance is measured by the camera. I have had this happen many times when i am standing right in front of a mob and it wont target them at all.

    FF XI targeting was pretty shit also but it didn't matter cause you usually only fought 1 mob at a time.

    Yeah, because it's implemented that way. It is not tied to the representation of the list but the implementation of sorting it. This is what I am trying to tell you all this time.
