    /facetarget does root you if your moving the opposite direction. Its not like you can just fire whilst running away.
    ...no it doesnt, i do it regularly via the manual macro, are you using standard movement type or legacy? video coming soon

    edit: video is up :https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dipBCBLzYPU

    /facetarget is only good if you use legacy movement. With standard camera lock is better.

    I dont think they should change it its not that bad and most people dont use it. Yes u cant go for positionals but in pvp its pointless to go for positionals except trick attack.

    No. No, it's really not pointless.

    You can do this basically without facetarget..you just press V to see behind you, and Bio or any attack as you're running away so you can target people who are chasing you...
    Is that really a cheat?

    Anyways, thanks for letting us know about this. If this fools people like you, it's good for some use in PVP.

    And yes, you have to be using legacy controls to be able to run backwards quickly and easily. They are way better for PVPers anyways. Why everyone is not using Legacy Controls is beyond me.

    That's on the same level as spamming a macro...not nearly as mindless to do and will break your wrist. It has nothing to do with fooling anyone it's a very real thing. I don't think you're fully grasping what is being discussed here. As are many other people, who are also missing the point and pretending to be knowledgeable.

    Then please explain to me what is happening. You believe someone is sprinting away but somehow still looking and using a speedhack and this is a Summoner?

    It is very clearly described in the original post as well as someone else posting a video of it later on. It allows a person with legacy controls to run away from an enemy at full speed while still facing them the entire time. This (VERY) effectively keeps them from ever exposing their back/flank to the enemy which is reducing the effectiveness of certain classes and skills. While it can be accomplished by macros you would have to spam the macro 2-3 times a second so many people resort to 3rd party software to auto-fire their face target keybind in the background so they don't have to think about it.

    NO.

    Simply, not.

    This is not something that would affect PvP only, it also affects PvE.
    Some melees who hate camera locking (Hi, me here) have macros to spam face target so we don't miss auto attacks while moving, and thus, we don't lose DPS that is so valuable in raids. Basically, camera locking is awful, gives me tunnel vision and I can't trespass a monster or boss hitbox but just circle around... Makes me clumsy in mechanics so I decided to stop using it, but the difference of not using it makes you lose 50-100 DPS because auto attacks (At least in monk) and you can't afford that, so I made my own method, facetarget spam. Now I'm not in disadvantage with camera lockers, all the opposite.

    Also, I still thinking, if someone gets the effort to spam that, why not? They should stop the third programs, but, using macros to spam the facetarget is totally legit. (I don't have any macro just in order to not stop my facetarget macro, as, other macros would interrupt it).

    PS: I'm pretty surprised you noticed all the benefits about it, too bad you decided to comment, I hope SE won't take this in mind, (Can't help, I have to be honest) because it affects me straight, mostly in PvE. (In PvP with a single facetarget per casting is enough for me. )
