If someone is truly using the soft-targeting/auto-target crap, then you are complaining about a feature that was added to help noobs play the game.

Hm, that could be my problem, I dont use T, I use  right mouse button for mouselook.

And if you have a mob selected and try to use an ability like manyshot or stun, you must to smash the fucking button because it just don't work in the first time.

q? you mean tab?

been busted since u21

Soft Targeting is something great. I use it all the time.

I go hard targeting ( click or delete for me ) only when I want to gank a given mob, the rest of hte time I just use soft targeting.

Probably.  Fuck Turdbine.  This gets me so angry every time I play.

Example:  Invising through content, I want to have that lever ahead of me hard targetted so I can hit it, reinvis instantly and keep going.  Even with no mobs between me and the lever, I cannot hard target the lever any more.  The q/tab targetting simply doesn't work 90% of the time any more.

So what happens?  Well, some mobs catch up to me.  I'm busy mashing q trying to cycle through targets to find the lever.  That doesn't work either... So now I'm busy clicking trying to hit the lever, and it's impossible to click on it with any mobs around.  Same with Dimension Door.

Hell, it's next to impossible to click anything anyway.  You just swing at the air half the time.

I rarely use hard targeting. It feels like playing a bad MMO where you have to select a target and mash hotkeys 1-2-3-4 until it dies.

Q is used for the hotbar and Tab is my map on/off button.

I aim my bow with mouselook and click on the party member list to buff/heal others.

Also my F1 is used to select dialog option #1.

My problems with targeting don't seem as bad compared to some complaints here.  Its not constant for any of my toons, yet.

There's your problem. It's IMARANGER. For all we know, he's not hitting the q key and is just repeatedly tapping and raging on the tab key.

Now that's a damn good idea!

But sadly, no.  I prefer to use Q instead of Tab, given how often I hard target.  The left ring finger slides up from A to Q much easier than from A to Tab.  I think some use Q and E for strafing, but strafing is for pussies.

Folks who rely on soft-targeting almost exclusively are gimped as all hell.  I want my goddamn hard-targetting back.

Here's yet another example of the nuisance.  My Jungles of Khyber runs take more time now since I can't find the fucking runes without running everywhere.

I'm starting to suspect MajMal introduced this "feature" to slow people down and piss them off.  It's actually an anti-zerging mechanic like doors and dungeon alert.
