Cone targeting should be character relative.

What I find even more annoying is when you tab target and it keeps targeting out of range ennemies. Give me something I can at least hit!

This is why there is the cone setting.

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.

Thank you!

Targeting would need a lot of work overall, it's a real pain in PvP where you basically just use the party bars to click targets when not dealing with the closest enemy because of how clunky tabbing is.

I think some people are confused here.
OP is talking about the targetting option in settings called cone.
Some people in the replies seem to be talking about cone aoes.
Apples and oranges.

And I totally agree, OP, I thought having a new targetting option would finally fix tab-targetting clunkiness but it really didn't. And this keeps being especially a problem in Frontlines, where enemies are a lot and all over the place, and move too much to be easily selectable individually.

Rarely have issues targeting what i want with controller :|

Tab cycling through targets on a controller sucks, what are you talking about? Especially on massive pulls.
