Cannot activate and run DEATH CRYSTALS for Ascendancy on Console!

Worst thing in the game for console players right now is this, hands down. Please watch this Youtube video first.

You cannot play in a team with PC because they can loot faster than you can because of this reason.. If any monster enemies are on the screen you cannot pickup and it automatically attacks them instead of pick up the loot near your feet!! DEADZONE adjustment in options menu does nothing! It's even hard with the directional they implemented with R3!! Plus, you cannot use the directional R3 and X button at the same time unless you severely finagle your fingers on PS5 to activate things like in the video below (WHICH I tried in the video and it didn't work to activate the Death Crystal anyway!). I tried and died multiple times. It's super wonky, BRING BACK THE PoE1 system! It was perfectly fine in that game. If you don't bring that system back, then PLEASE fix it where DEATH CRYSTALS for the Ascendancy are above ALL in selections, and not the enemies all around it!

PLEASE ADD THIS TO QoL.. IT'S NOT COOL! I, myself, have lost hours. I don't want to COMPLETELY AVOID Escape for the rest of my life because Escape mode has a technicality which hinders console players! I'm sure nobody likes this auto locking enemy feature! It should be you press the L3 for that direction to a certain point and when you let go the mouse cursor would go back to the middle where you stand (There is no mouse cursor, just an example on how it should work)!

I would RATHER pick up items than have it NOT PICK UP items.

Thanks.

I had the same Problem. I Solved this with a Simple Trick. i Put on L1 the Hand(Pick up Loot and Aktivate). So i Can run the Crystals and Klick with Mobs around and also Loot with Mobs arround.
+1 me too, after that, it was easy
Auto aim is prioritizing enemy instead of poor, basically you gotta kill everyone close by first to click crystal/loot items
No, completly wrong. No need to kill the mobs to be able to click the crystal. Was already provided a better solution by changing the bind keys
