I actually find that targeting with a controller is easier than tab targeting, but is impossible to use with the cross hotbar unless you use the Hold option exclusively (because you will always be on the cross bad and activating skills >.>).

Targeting is one thing that should be fixed immediately, and it shouldn't have the misleading configuration options in the menu that literally do nothing. But as others have said, three years, numerous bug reports, and changing the color of atma is more important.
