Enemy list in parties should be populated by the party.

Using Target of Target to attack what the tank is works ok for a healer who wants to throw out an occasional attack without changing their targeting setup, but isn't very good for DPS classes. DPS should usually target an enemy and keep hitting that same enemy until its dead. The tank, on the other hand, is likely to be cycling around between all the enemies in order to maintain hate on everything. Following the tank's target would spread DPS out too much when it should instead be focused on Target 1.

I think a combination of adding all engaged mobs to the enemy list (as Thalassocrat suggested in the opening post here) and adding the marking signs to the enemy list (as Bixby suggested) would make targeting the right mob far easier for both DPS classes and tanks.

It gets annoying when my character is just standing there doing nothing because I'm busy hitting next-next-next-next-next-next-next-next (left or right on controller, I guess tab would be the equivalent on PC) just hoping target 1 (or 2 or whatever we're on by that point) will eventually show up as targeted so I can start attacking.

Soooooo glad I found this thread! Is there anywhere I can read up on how to use Targeting Filters or any other method of cycling through enemies fast and accurately enough to pull my own weight and not embarrass myself? I'm running an Arcanist, I just hit 35th and went through Qarn. My apologies to the party that carried me through... My inability to target quickly was blatantly obvious when the first boss's adds started insta-killing the tank. I really need to fix this problem! I've got all the other mechanics down solid but speed cycling to find the right target only to pass it by and then have the target rotation switch up to hide the target again is extremely frustrating.
