Targeting in this game sucks especially on Controller

I have mine set up so that it targets only mobs that are engaged. Then it's usually only a click or two to get the mob I want.

There are some pretty good custom targeting tools. And also, default targeting is based on direction rather than distance. You can be right next to a mob, but facing a little to the side, and you will target a mob that is more directly in front of you, even if it's farther away.
