Changes to subtarget.

Yes, these changes are much needed, I keep targeting enemies that have already been killed off.

Agreed, now if only we can lose the ability to target things that are very far away

Is there ever going to be a fix to when Subtargeting is off and you are targeted on an enemy and attempt to cure yourself? As it stands now you have to change the target back to yourself just to cure, then back to the target to resume attacking, making subtarget off more of a nuisance than anything.

This.

Truthfully I cannot even recall if you can cure undead in this game for damage, but either way as a Paladin it is a royal pain to try and self-heal while targeting the mob I am tanking with subtarget off (which is how I'm supposed to play using a keyboard and mouse, and not just because Yoshi-P says so). Can there be some sort of auto self-cast option added for things like heals so that when you're targeting a hostile, they automatically go to you? Sure I could fix this with a macro but seems unfair for the game to not offer this at some point.

Also thank you for getting rid of targeting dead enemies, it's been getting in my way a lot recently!

2 options here:
config > targeting > subtarget actions
make a macro 1 line: /action "Cure" <stpc>

This is what macros are made for, not just switching class/job.

That whole /targetnpc "name" hopefully won't happen, and using /action "npcname" shouldn't either, it would open up the whole wall between the open door and open window for NM-claim-bots, it'll be bad enough when someone finds a way to track/target them before they spawn, making it easier to claim is not something you want to do.

THIS, so much THIS.

It drove me mad in XI and it's no better here. WTF's the point of targeting something so far away NO SKILL AT ALL can interact with it?

As for dead mobs no longer being targetable; about time! Why XIV can't have XI's auto-retarget I have no idea, I hate the fact I have to manually re-target in a group of mobs when one's dead, the lag is terrible and TABbing around to get to the one that's currently hitting me is a pain.
