Which controller options to use?

Hi guys.
What kind of controller you guys use with your archers?
I’ve been playing ToS with my PS3 controller but now that I’m playing archer I’m having some problems with targeting. The game shows that the right stick can be used to change targets, but it doesn’t happen to me. I know it is not broken because I can lock target by pressing it.
So I’ve been thinking of changing to WASD + Mouse.
Is it more appropriate for Archers than a joystick? What do you guys think?

Thx.
:relaxed:

I think Mouse + Keyboard is the best

You can choose your target precisely
I have use controller before but its so annoying when you get to world boss hunting and you keep shooting on Templeshooter or fireball

Mouse + Keyboard if you can handle it. For me, Keyboard settings are better since I’m more used to its layout.

The controller’s switch target function is a bit of an idiot. You need to be harsher with it. Sometimes Up+Down works, sometimes Left+Right. I used to swivel it around just to find the correct direction since it changes according to the situation.

even in mousemode targeting is stell messy: mouseover an enemy and your target will change to that one, despite beeing locked before.
High ping can let you fire arrows in running direction instead of turning to your (locked) target and a lot of other ‘fun’ stuff.
Super annoying if you have to kite a screen full of mobs.

I guess mouse & keyboard is still the best option, but it feels clunky and not as smooth as it should.
My Gamepad arrives tomorrow, then I see how it works out
