Cone targeting should be character relative.

[SamSmoot]

Trying to find a way to target only the closest enemy in front of me.
Keybind: "Target Closest Enemy" works nicely. but it will target the closest enemy even if it's directly behind you.

I thought the Cone target option in Character Configuration, Target would help, but Target Closest still selects things behind me.
It turns out the cone isn't some sweep angle in front of your character, but your camera view. If you can see it on screen, and it's the closest thing, it gets targeted.

The targeting cone needs to be relative to your character, perhaps 30 degrees (or adjustable in the config)

I prefer it to be able to target behind me on a tank because enemies surround me a lot.

I feel this is how you get everything becoming circular aoes

Targeting should be a lot of things that it clearly isn't. Why are there so many objects/npcs that can be targeted with no point to targeting them?

[Rein_eon_Osborne]

Or even better? Does not require a target. I don't mind the nuances of targeting however and very much miss them on WAR's old Overpower.

But I’d keep my wish to myself. Because if we know anything about the dev, they’d almost definitely replace it with circles. Gameplay nuances are an abomination in their dictionary, for better or worse.

Controller targeting is much better. The target filters don't apply to tab targeting. The controller targeting can be bound to tab and you can check "change target circle to target select", but SE should just make target filters apply to tab targeting.

Wait... can you set controller targeting to tab without having a controller? If yes, how? I'm being driven crazy with the tab targeting in this game.

That's right. Go to keybinds, click System and bind "Mouse Cursor/Target Cursor Right" to tab. Go to character configuration, then control settings. Under target, check "Switch target circle to target select" then go to filters and set sheathed and drawn filters. For sheathed I have Enemies and for drawn I have Engaged Enemies.

The problem with it is if you pull multiple packs on a tank then you need to sheath again so you can target a second pack, but it's convenient the rest of the time.
