Just started a melee build and the auto targeting is getting quite annoying. There are many times when trying to attack where I am standing leads to the auto target having me run over into the middle of a group of mobs (or it will have me turn and attack a single mob behind me when I am trying to hit the group of mobs in front of me).
PoE allows you to click on an equipped ability and choose whether you want that feature or not. I highly recommend the same for this game.
Having a lot of fun still, excited to see where Last Epoch will go!
Afaik there isnt any way to deal with this (yet?). The devs have promised “full” controller support/customisation as part of 1.0 but what this would include I dont think we know yet.
Bit confused as to exactly what you are trying to describe. Never noticed auto targetting with keyboard and mouse - everyone who usually complains about that is using a controller. I use keyboard and mouse and have played with virtually every skill in the game and I cannot say I am experiencing what you refer to.
Do you mean the Setting in Options that moves you into melee range if you are not close enough? That can be switched off if you want.
If not, can you elaborate on your setup? What skills you are trying to use on what build etc.
How have I missed this setting, that is exactly what I am talking about. This is what happens when I do things without sleep lol. Thank you very much Vapour!
@vapourfire On fire today! I too didnt realize that the particular option in question existed for a bit, disabling was a literal game changer. Does anybody actually use it? If so, why? Seems more a detriment than anything.
Yeah its a tricky setting based on how EHG has implemented it.
I personally find it ok for up close and personal kinda builds where melee range is a little wonky and it helps “move” you that little bit closer, but its not perfect and most definitely can cause problems depending on the playstyle and skills used.
I have a feeling its part of the reason people occassionally ask for a key binding for “stand in place when attacking”.
