turns out controller is as good and cool as y'all said, who knew

i'm still slow and unwieldy at it, ESPECIALLY at targeting in aoe/single target situations (oh my god any tips to make that easier/more accurate appreciated :gonk:), but actually controlling the character is smooth and silky, even with my slightly odd crossbar layout.

You can cycle through target (like, pressing tab on m+kb) using LT/RT and the bumpers. Left bumper + d-pad up and down cycles through enemy aggro list. For ground targetted stuff... macros work pretty good, but I just have the circle set to target me and i swivel the camera around to target it manually.

I use JoyToKey to map L2 to tab so that controller targeting works exactly like keyboard targeting

Humanity's real enemy is me!
Hya hya foowah!
targeting specific enemies in aoe situations kinda sucks with a controller but there are a couple ways i've figured out how to make it a bit easier.

-rotate the camera so only relevant monsters are visible. especially if you're in a big room where there are monsters wandering around in the background (think the first room of aurum vale). Or if there's like just too many enemies in a single pull and you need to prioritize one to target, you can rotate your camera so some of them temporarily aren't visible, and you won't target them.

-you can cycle between enemies both to your left and to your right using the respective shoulder buttons.

-If you untarget an enemy and then re-engage, it will usually target the enemy nearest to your character. So if you're a tank and there's a big group of monsters in front of you, and a stray add is approaching your healer from your right side, you can untarget your current enemy, move slightly to the right of the big group of monsters, and re-engage. It'll have you target one of the rightmost enemies in the pack. Then you can just use the right shoulder button to shift to the stray add because it's the only monster to your right.

I don't see an option anywhere to enable bumper-targeting like you're all talking about in this confounding configuration menu. :argh:

There’s a tab in the config that lets you set what targeting will target. The default will have enemies and objects (i can’t remember the actual word) on left/right and party list on up/down.

L1/R1 or LB/RB transform from their normal functions to "change target left/right" when your crossbar is up (so by default, when you're holding a trigger).

Uh... Kupo?

Holding down LB and pressing up or down allows you to navigate the threat list.

This is crucial for good BRDing in AoE situations (and other DoTs).

The bumpers don't seem to do anything at all when triggers are held, for me. :confused:

(e) Nevermind, changing some option or another in character configuration fixed the problem. :ms:

the WXHB is something that I fully admit I need to learn at a certain point and it's probably 200% better than my current method, but sorry, I'm too used to having two hotbars and double clicking to get past the general action hot bar (and to this day, I still gently caress up every now and then, only single click, and press something on that hot bar instead of an attack for a GCD).
