Summary0020718: Game randomly switches friendly or hostile targets
DescriptionReporter: bosli42

I have no idea if this bug was ever posted since it might be as old as the game, couldn't find anything related. I'm 99% sure it's a bug of the client/engine and not of any addons, because friends that didn't have any (not with client download included) addons installed yet also had it happen.

At seemingly random intervals, the game sometimes switches friendly or hostile targets. I cannot determine the trigger, and it seems very inconsistent, usually happening a couple minutes in a row at random, then stopping for possibly days. It could be tied to a zone loading or even login / launch glitch, but it can happen a couple times then not again for hours without restarting.

It can target friendly or hostile when nothing is selected, even when the game is not focused and no mouseclick interaction would even be possible. I do know of specific cases where in or out of combat, it would override the selected friendly target mostly with the player selftarget even when doing nothing, like when as a tank you keep a certain def target focused to quickswitch guard, or you are focus healing someone and it randomly switches friendly target.

With the event of the enemy realm invading the city it also very often targets an enemy that may not even be in the rendered FoV (so not tabbable), and when you are unflagged, so no combat / aura or whatever interaction happens. I can't remember the bug ever overriding an already selected hostile target though, only if you have none selected yet.

It's a fairly minor bug but can be very irritating if it keeps happening for a whole scenario match. No idea if it's worth investigating, maybe another player has more input.

Hey,

yeah I have such a similar issue, but it's only when I target friendly target.
Without any reasons my current friendly target always switches to me.
I thought it's my key board or keybindings or so. But I reinstalled the game so many times and the issue still occures.
