FFXIV targeting circle:
Left to Right

What it suppose to be:
Nearest to Furthest



what's the opposite word for nearest? Far, Further, Furthest?

It's more nearest from the screen center

I have "target nearest enemy" on key a and "target enemy who attacked you last" on key d and it works good.

Targeting is my only gripe on functionality. While other things need some fine tuning, targeting is by far the worst.

What is it about FFXI's targeting system that seemed light years ahead of this one? I never had problems on FFXI, but I can't think out why it was so much better.

As far as I recall targeting in XI is the same as XIV, it targets left to right... regardless of distance however far.

The pointer in XI is much more clear which object you are targeting in XI though, better than both of the 2 display options XIV gives you. The circle is difficult to figure out exactly which target you are on, and the above arrow sits sooo high above your target its either off screen or too high above the target its on to usually tell exactly whom you have targeted.

As in XI there are generally 2 options to target better... pre-click someone to the left of where you assume the target you want will be (so that left->right tabbing is quicker) or always position yourself to F8 will get whom you want.

I never had a problem with targeting in XI... I believe it was target nearest to farthest in a left to right manner, lol.

nearest to farthest did not take priority of left to right. As far as I can tell that is the exact same. Also the XI click targeting is just as bad really, in fact I believe the circle target is the default in XI.

By the way has anyone on keyboard been playing with the directional arrow targeting? I was playing around with it the other day and it worked very well... but I am still locked into tab/nearest npc styles.
