    Heya,
    So, about the couple in Bloodhunt: indeed, there is a moment during that fight when, after the knockback, “the dude” taunts you (as you can taunt NPC’s, sometimes, rare, but still happening, NPC’s taunts you too). There is no way to prevent that, is a “feature” of that fight and you simply have to switch target back to the one you want to fight. As a side note, the mechanics of that fights actually requires that you always attack the dude, when he is present and finish of “the chick” after you finish off “the dude”.
    As to address your issue, there is a feature in sw:tor that might be helpful for you (personally i use it very rarely, only when i play tank or in some specific fights, like TC, when i play in adds group). The feature is “focus target” and can be activated (on my interface) with Alt-F. This will display in the middle of teh screen the icon of the focused target, so you can see it even if you’re not selecting it. It can be useful at least in 2 ways: 1. for seeing what that specific target does even when you’re not actually targeting it; and 2. to be able to quickly re-targeting it, if you loose target. But for the 2nd case, this is usually useful for range dps, not for malee, as when you play malee, you should be close to that target and actually seeing it at all times, and hence, is quicker to reselect it with a tab.
    Also, usually, in large groups, when there are multiple dps that needs to focus on the same target, that target usually gets marked, and you select it by simply circling through tabs, until you see the mark symbol, on its icon.
    I know what you mean by target’s target or ally’s target, i used it alot in STO, but i never used that feature in sw:tor (not sure is even exists).
    I hope this helped.
    All the best,
    Kara

    Thanks “Doll”, I’ll need to set up something. My main concern is switching targets in large groups and/or staying on the target I want… maybe a
    “lock target” is what I’m looking for? Here’s an example of what I mean… the couple in “Bloodhunt”, though not a large group situation, should illustrate
    my problem… When the guy is present, I focus my DPS on him, but almost every time I’m in there, at least once during the fight, I’ll attempt to attack
    dude and end up leaping to the chick. Maybe her “knock back” forces me to lose target, I’m not sure. Of course this particular fight is no big deal, but
    this is the issue I’m having… losing my target, and getting it back on track, especially with more than one potential target in view…

    8pm Bucharest is 6pm UTC – I have posted all the times in UTC. Bucharest must be UTC+2 according to my time converter.

    I left that post, to see if I could catch Zez ingame, but ended up with unexpected company. What I would like to know, what’s the “#1” targeting option
    in anyone’s opinion. There are several different options in the keybindings, but I’m starting to run low on my really convenient keys. Which do you guys
    use the most… “nearest target”, “target ally’s target”, etc. ?

    Ok I have gone through and changed all the times to UTC. This seems the most reasonable way of doing it. I have also added days to the International times so that theres no confusion.

    If anyone spots and errors, please let me know asap.

    Ok we are all seeing the same time. I have set the board to UTC/GMT standard.

    I guess its important to let members know to check the local times I have also posted instead or relying on the actual calendar times. I will re-do all the Events correlating the local time in each region of the event with the UTC equivalent. I will try to do this today sometime.

    Thanks Zez! We’ll definitely go over anything you have to add, when you find the time. At this point I’m thinking I may need to adjust my “rotation”
    a bit. Once I’m sure of the order of things, my “abilities” and “key bindings” will need to be dialed in. That’s assuming I find something that needs
    to be changed. Something that may make a significant difference, is “targeting”. I’ve been “cursor clicking” my targets, which in general works fine,
    but there are some issues that come up at the worst times… especially fighting “big bosses” and/or groups. Big Bosses will overwhelm my screen, meaning
    I’ll see an add, think I targeted it, but ended up back on boss… when “leaping to my targets the majority of the time, this can be a huge problem…

    That’s what it shows for me as well but remember that is based on plasmas time zone, I don’t know if it’s possible to change to local user time

    11:30 am: Operations Schedule – USA East Coast
    2:30 pm: Operations Schedule – USA West Coast
    8:00 pm: Operations Schedule – Oce
    Which is a bit messed up ….
    EU should be at 8 pm ….
    Oce around 11:30 am
    EST around 2:30 am
    PST around 6:30 am ….

    I have set the 4 time-zone Ops times into the Events system and set them to recur on my Sat/Sun until June. I have given a 3-hour duration to each event. The thing with that is it gives us 8 events a weekend, but I am just setting up the events so they are laid out. We will need to work out what days we want to set certain time-zone events.

    I need someone to access the calendar and confirm that the times in the Events calendar are showing up in your local time.

    The board is set to UTC/GMT, however when I post an event I have posted it in my local time GMT+10:30 Adelaide (Daylight Savings), I just need to know that it is then showing up in YOUR local time when you view it.
