Auto-target problems for Archers and Mages

Well, basically, this is a simple Feedback, and it’s also a Question that i have:

When archers use their skills, like oblique shot, the Stamina Crystal on maps sometimes is targetted by the skill, so let’s suppose you’re fighting against 2 mobs, and there’s a crystal nearby, i would obviously miss one of them, because the arrow finds more interesting shotting the thing that can’t harm you at all, and has no value for you since archers can’t dash like Swordsmans.

And, it’s the same problem for mages too.

I also think that almost every class that has a Auto-target skill will suffer from this. Stamina Cystals should not be considered as monsters (at least for skills), the player must choose to auto-attack it, and that’s all. The skills were made for monsters only. What do you guys think ? Is that intended ? (it’s not a really bad problem like PING or Channel Congestion, but it can be annoying sometimes and impact the gameplay in certain ways. Also, there’s no development logic behind it, so the player must find it unreasonable and, again, impact the game negatively.)

+1 for this , very annoying for me

Totally agree, finding this very irritating on my Archer.

have you tried locking targets? (ctrl)
and cycle targets? (Tab)

i found playing mages a pain until i started doing the above, but i didn’t play it past lvl 40 but i understand the targeting thing you’re having

Use tab, fam. Just hit Thaumaturge and decided to farm mats to get the White Hair achievement. Works wonders.

irritating like hell as a wizard and also the lock on target especially boss gone if you move too far away from him during fights and need to relock on his again.

i think what the TC is refering to is how oblique shot BOUNCES off the first target and randomly hits a second target. seeing as there are 2 secondary targets it will sometimes bounce to the stamina crystal making his oblique shot fustrating to waste sp to kill something of 0 priority.

Ah, that makes a lot more sense now.
If that’s the case they should definitely do something to eliminate that sort of issue

idk you guys, but for me, even with Lock Target don’t work with some skills like Oblique Shot and Barrage
