Action Combat Mode Targeting Feedback from Ranger's perspective.

As a ranger player i felt like i cant use anything else except for the action combat mode, cuz it made me feel so much cooler. so i have some feedback about it.

There is an issue, that ive heard people talk about with the action combat, that involves mob targetting. Currently as it is in game, when youre in action combat mode and you press or spam TAB button it'll just circle through all the closest enemies visible on the screen. I however have a feedback on how you can make it much smoother, better and more intuitive for players.

I think, that there should be an invisible square/rectangle around the action combat targeting triangle/circle, that is more or less the size shown on the screenshots (I am using a 2560x1440 screen resolution). The way i envisioned it to work is that when you have a couple of targets within that yellow rectangle then when you press TAB it should hard lock-on focus the target nearst to your targeting circle, and if you have mobs/targets outside of it then the TAB button should work as it works now - just circle through the enemies. In case of pvp it'd allow players to distance the camera from their character, look down (so we see the enemy well) and quickly target the enemy fighter that jumped straight into us.

    I tried Action Combat before, but I felt like something is not right for me and I stayed in TAB Targeting.
    Reading this post makes me feel like it might be the missing part I need.

    Having the possibility to easily change target to the one you need in the current moment is very important in fast combat situation, where it might be too late for you when you target incorrect enemy.

    @Piran thats the same thing i felt missing especially when we started doing friendly mass pvp trainings. I found myself getting out of the action combat mode to manually find the target of my choice and click on him and then go back to the action combat. I think that there should be no feeling or thought of neccessity of doing it, if action combat is supposed to be a viable choice equal in usefullness to the tab target
