It takes practice. I personally just tab target in dungeons and the like when I play SCH.

^ These cycle through enemies - and only enemies. I use up/down on the d-pad (D>D gets to the tank) to target party members. I have L3 set to /facetarget and R3 set to lock-on, and I swear by both. /facetarget is nice when playing BLM or SCH and the boss moves around - it stops your casts from breaking. You could very easily replace /facetarget with the target-of-target thing, though.

I used to have L3 as lock-on, and I find it clunky and nearly impossible to use effectively as a melee dps. You're constantly moving. Moderating the pressure on your left stick to click when you need to is a lot more complicated than clicking the right stick (the one you use for camera motion anyway, which gets modified by lock-on) in my experience. Make each thumb have one job, rather than giving two to your left.
