nearest enemy aint bad to have, still it's nothing u use when RvRing really as you need to be selective.

Really? so why is it that it takes me ages to target anything when i am stuck in a tower with my ranger when i am having to deal with both lag and a bad targetting system with mouse pointer and target nearest enemy don't work period.

Conversely, if u are in DF surrounded by grey con aggro which ofc is not aggro at all and ur trying to get to the real enemy and it picks say a plated fiend or a lilli spawn instead of the real target enemy u want? ehm no sorry it blows, and likewise for casters also. Works prolly about 20% of the time for assist train in fgs otherwise it sucks a fleshy lollipop :p

nearest enemy works if just a small numer of enemies preferably only 1 ;P still I never use it in RvR neways, still Target nearest aint to smart as a ranger if ur trying to snipe something I guess ;P

nono mates you got it all wrong..
you are a being hit by a random merc, now you ofcause hit F8 to target him, but the game instead targets the sorc standing 500 units away behind a tree..see the game is telling you much better to kill sorc first, then deal with merc.
It aint broken..it's brilliant :-P

You can use last attacker if you already have a target and someone is nuking you. Mezz/kill the nuker and go back to your initial target :)

Nearest target can come in handy when you run around a corner, stumble upon someone and have no time to target him/her first.
