    The problem with TNE is that even if you do switch it out for tab target it still doesn't cycle nor does it even target the enemy you're on correctly it's not proximity of your character but rather how the screen is facing a certain way. You must have your screen a certain way as to always have your cycle going through each mob the way you're facing rather than how the games tab target is set up.

    As for PvP it's a nightmare to tab target to get to a kill target friends that I play with we have to focus target each other, call out a target, and then focus it down. It's really tedious to do instead of how tab target should normally react, no one wants to tab 102090239 times to get that white mage that's already back in enemy lines because you couldn't target him/her.

    I have nothing to compare it to. This is the way I have always played. It's worked so far. The biggest nuisance using the mouse to target a specific person for me, is when I need to target another player (to heal them) when they're not in my party, they're running frantically away from a mob and trying not to die... that takes a bit of coordination, aye... "Hold STILL for just a moment, will ya...?"

    I'd decided it WASN'T tolerable in PvE. I came over from SWTOR, where TAB was default "Target Nearest Enemy" and I could not figure out for the longest time, why, here, when i hit TAB, it would target a mob far away, in the back of the room. "No! Not that one! The one about to eat me -!"

    That's why I keybound "Target Nearest Enemy" to TAB, and use my mouse (G502) to pick out specific enemies in PvE - the healers, the mages... same as my old SWTOR habit.

    I will certainly agree, we could use more and better logical targeting options.
