Easier Crossbar & Targeting VIDEO Tutorial

[johnbeck1000]

Jonathan12uiz thanks for the great videos...i've watched all of them and I've learned quite a bit from you. I made all my classes into the changing the hot bar with a drawn weapon style. I had started playing FF14 the default way and when I switched it took a lot to change. I do have a question though...sometimes when I'm attacked by an enemy it automatically selects them so when I pull my weapon out it doesn't pull my weapon out but it zooms in the selected target and I have to remember to deselect the target and then pull my weapon out. Do you have a fix for this?

I know that the L3 button draws the weapon IF you do not have a target selected, if you have a target selected... it WILL apply LOCK-ON for the camera. I know sometimes this can be an issue, I've been looking for a workaround, but haven't found any except IF you know you will be switching to attack something... just quickly double tap "O" to cancel any selected targets...

Well, there is a solution. At the cost of one button. Just use the sheath/unsheath main action. That's what I did because I was getting crazy.

Still you didn't mention that this setting messes up with the weaver configuration! Not a big deal, one just needs to add the crafing log in the DoH action hotbar.

I haven't tried the weaver class yet... although i have it setup... but i have logs pertaining to each class always on my hotbars. ie... hunting log on battle class.. fishing log on fisher... etc.

I haven't thought about using the main action for stance... i think i will actually implement this to my R2+O crossbar because I noticed that if I am already locked onto a target, i sometimes accidentally activate that skill... which is "mark to ignore 1" lol.... my party is always like... "huh!?!?" haha

Yesterday it was a mess. I switched to CNK to do some dungeons fast (you get selected immediately as a healer) for the loot, and the new setting drove me crazy. That stupid Lock is ridiculous! Why didn't SE put a single button for sheathe/unsheathe?! I am going to write a bug report for that. And I want it on L1. Such a great job the did with the game on PS3 ruined by the most stupid things.

yeah that's what I've been doing, just thought there might be an easier way

looking into it, because I wanted to send a suggestion to SE about it if I can for sure make sure that all the settings can't alleviate this issue somehow.

I wonder if you could change the function of the button...What does the "lock on target" function do anyway?

Lock on, locks the camera so that you are always looking at your target. I use it a lot with my archer class, but nothing else really

just noticed that youtube and SE are having issues with something with some of my videos... can you guys still watch this video or is it currently unavailable?
