Or just use /assist instead of implied targeting through the tank...

Instead of targetting through the tank like a noob use an assist macro.

Tab targets my closest mob which is not always the one the tank is on. Regardless, I dont use that or an assist key anyway...I just click the mob I want to attack, but if the person is having issues leaving auto attack on and ranged attacking mobs that aren't engaged tab is not going to solve that issue...it will probably just make it worse.

Tab targets some random bollocks at the other end of the room.
The code must be fucking awesome, because whatever is going on, it will ensure that
- it never targets what you actually want to target
- it never targets anything that you are already engaged to
I would not know how to program such a thing...

Some people change what keys do what. He made his tab do what F8 does.

It was a rant about the shittiness and inconsistency of actual TAB-targeting.

Let me put "target self" on tab, and swoosh! I TAB da awesomez. Will never accidently pull a mob. Ahem.

Anyway, TAB seems to cycle through all visible targets if not engaged. If engaged, it seems to prefer the encounter you are currently targetting, but sometimes will, instead of targetting a 2nd encounter you're engaged to (if applicable), jump to a non engaged target. That's BS. There is no fucking reason tab should jump to a non-engaged target if you're engaged yourself. Likewise, tab should never jump to objects (such as harvesting nodes, NPCs, etc) if you're engaged.

As our Russian customers here at work like to say..... "It shouldnt be too hard to realize."
