Greetings, Coors!
Thank you for posting your concerns about losing the target lock between areas. Although Hotohori does bring up a few good points (thanks, Hotohori!), I have made sure to submit your information to the development team, and they will make sure to thoroughly investigate this matter for you, based on your report. Unfortunately, I cannot guarantee that a direct response will be posted on this thread, but I do recommend checking on http://lodestone.finalfantasyxiv.com/ or http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/f...40-Patch-Notes for any information that may be provided regarding the development team's investigation. Thanks again for your report!
