Dark Passenger facing away from mobs

[Rampage]

Dark Passenger is a conal spell going from character foward to enemies. Currently you do not face the enemy automatically if you are running around. This may be because it is a spell and not an ability. But I think it would be nice if we did face the enemy like abilities since it is a directional.

Pretty minor thing considering other stuff that is going on but thought Id put this out there.

Just hold still then? This is not an issue exclusive to Dark Passenger; virtually every other job can have "my move doesn't look right while running around" issues. It is still hitting in its linear (not conal) AoE despite the animation. You can turn around during weaponskills and spells too. DP is an ability.

Forcing you to retain facing would be jarrin. Separating the effect from your character) is obviously resource-intensive for a not-cripping visual disparity.

If you're talking about it just not firing while you're kiting because of facing, I dunno what to tell you. Works fine for every other DRK. You sure you have autofacetarget on?

Yeah im just saying autoface target, doesnt seem to be working. Not looking for a lock facing forward. Sorry if that wasnt clear.

The ability "snapshots" when you use it. I've gotten off a DA Dark Passenger on a pack of mobs, but turned around for a mechanic or something RIGHT as it fired and it fired, visually, behind me, but mousing through the mobs shows them all damaged and blinded.

It doesn't matter what direction you shoot it as it will always hit in front of you, the graphic effect is just for show.

But it currently looks really bad.

Other abilities with similar effects don't do this, do they? Warrior overpower, dragoon doomspike, monk howling fist? They need to fix dark passenger to work like those do.
