Auto-Target is the biggest proglem in the game

Auto target is the only challenge n the game at the moment. It is impossible to hit bosses which spawns small minions. Auto-Target is 100% turning to small minions instead of hitting the boss. 95% of my deaths are because of this bad auto-target design.

Right stick can be used for direction at least but still it is targeting the most useless enemy 90% of the time. Besides that it is hard to roll with that setup unless the binding is set to right or left buttons. Then again another problem comes with skill because then we can't use that button for skills and left to mercy of auto-target again.

It is not always targeting closest enemy or rarest enemy. It is just random.

Possible solution: It should have a set rule (a choice for player in settings would be better for different builds). This way a player can manage his moves according to this rule. A drop-down list in settings could be like this:
- Closest enemy
- Farthest enemy
- Enemy with most life
- Enemy with least life

Or just do whatever POE1 was doing by default, and let people change it to whatever this is if they prefer it instead. I only play melee and I've never felt this was a problem that needed fixing.

Okay, but you will face other problems in many different situations (in your encounters) btw. For example, if you are fighting with boss, you would try to bit a boss not trash mobs around (I mean in case where they are so far from you). But in case where all trash are close to you - you need to kill them firstly and then bit a boss. Am I right here? Your decision just a first step to improve Poe-player’s quality of life :) Hopefully, GGG will provide us some flexible settings for targeting in combat. But I think there are a lot of common issues (with highest priority) such as performance issues on console (xsx, ps 5), many glitches and crushes. We still have no LF on console (/cryingallthetime) etc etc etc..infinite list of problems))) I wish GGG will fix it asap :<

Turn auto-aim off.
Get a feeling for the standard mode.

My biggest issue with aiming with the right stick is lack of skill buttons.

I use B for roll, which leaves A X Y, right bumper and both triggers for skills. Thats only six skill slots.

Left bumper is health pot so i dont have to stop moving to heal.

On some characters i need more skills, which means pushing another button to activate the second skill setup. This means thumb off left or right stick to do this.

I play the entire game with auto aim so my right thumb can activate skills and roll.

The auto aim needs to improve, but my biggest issue is lack of buttons for skills. I just wish there was mouse and keyboard support for xbox so I could play the way I want on my couch.
