This is supposed to be about aiming skills and whatnot right? Why is there a aim assist? Moreover why am I forced to use this aim assist.

I'd have to assume this was thrown in to help controller people match keyboard&mouse people. But, using mouse n keys I don't need no stinking aim assist, please at the very least add a way to turn it off.

If you haven't noticed it before its painfully obvious using charges, lunging charge etc. You could have the cursor wayyy off of a target and it'll zoom you straight to the enemy.

Never noticed it. I've toyed around with lancer, berserker, priest, sorcerer and archer- when I don't aim at the target, I miss.

I know hit boxes are slightly bigger than the target, but it shouldn't be that much that you can aim off of them and still hit.

it does it.

Its super noticeable with all the charge-like skills lnacer/zker war etc, also very noticeable with caster projectiles, and its very lame , and I really think it should be something you should be able to turn off.

The reason I really dislike it is mostly that i'm leading my targets, but whatever it is I use, still will go straight towards them.

the shots gets registered when the client shoots it so it curves on ur screen, there is no autoaim, not with a mouse anywayz

Maybe that's why I don't notice it- I use a mouse. As a priest, I know Triple Nemisis has slight homing (it won't follow a target religiously and will still miss if I don't actually aim), and debuffs will always land as long as the monster isn't under something.

If there's aim assist, I'm not receiving any. Would sure as hell like to at times though! Stupid Slow arse Void Pulse even missing with Celerity up at 8m range...

I do not understand how you could not notice it. Aim for the head of target - arrow will hit middle body. Aim for the moving target - arrow will make curve to hit it. Completly do not need predict future target position.

Auto Aim assist does exist for ranged melee like the rush attacks for Slayer, Berserker and Lancer.


Projectile attacks don't have auto aim, but a few later ones do have limited homing (Triple Nemesis).

Stuff like targetted Sleep/Debuffs/Dots are actually lock-on homing, not auto aim.



The auto aim for melee moves is a bad idea.

I've seen Slayers and Lancers use their rush moves in an attempt to get past/behind their target, only for auto aim to 'help' them hit their target straight on and get stuck inside.

I think it's a disservice in more ways than one.

Not all skills use auto aim.
Sorcer - only basic attack have it.
Archer - all skills have it expect this one on lock on.
Warrior - dash
Slayer - dash, distance blade and one more.
Lancer - dash and one chain
Mystic - basic attack
