View Full Version : Game Mechanics: Mob Pounding on you does not get autotargeted

My target dialog is cleared and I get nailed by a mob. On live EQ that mob would appear in the target window. You could attack, stun, root, mez, dd, wtf you do. Here you have to f8 or click the mob in order to target it.

Example:

lvl 2 warrior fighting orcs and bats outside Freeport. The warrior is fighting a bat and an orc starts pounding on the little warrior. The bat dies and his target clears. The warrior then has to turn around and target the orc beating on him.

Works fine for me. In fact, I utilize this function to defend myself when I'm unable to reach the mouse, like when I'm on the phone. Something hits me, I hit esc, wait for it to hit me, okay now it's targetted, auto attack on, continue talking on phone.

Maybe there's a setting to turn this on/off under options? Not sure.

Ahhh an option... interesting. I think mine must be off too, because it's not auto-targetting for me either. Will check on this.

I don't use Macroquest. What would be the point on a classic server?

Turn off macroquest.
Do you want us to test and confirm this?

Laff ...
