    Default 1.2 update. Unable to target monsters

    When you double Tap to change target like in 1.1 it doesn't allow it anymore. Annnd suuuper laaagggy

    I confirm this. It makes fast farming quite challenging

    Yes, this is an issue. Unfortunately, it requires a client update to fix. We'll let the dust settle from 1.2 and see about getting 1.2.1 submitted.

    Yeah but the targeting is messed up, spacetime I say don't rush as much test your product heavily before releasing.

    AND DON"T TELL US WHEN YOU SUBMIT IT!!

    Sorry for the caps, but much of the spam on these forums the past few days was about 1.2.. Apple is inconsistent at best. They could take 3 days or up to 2+ weeks to approve an app.. Just let us know like a few days after you submit if you feel the need to tell us. All other communication with us is greatly appreciated so don't stop it. Just don't let us know when you submit an app to Apple.

    Uh, this is getting me killed a lot. Too bad we probably need to wait several weeks for the fix

    It's getting me killed a lot, too. Even as a warrior Mage, I die almost immediately. Farming now is difficult if not almost impossible without a lot of bears helping. I can't target at all. The boss kills me while I'm stuck killing some wee trident croc It's not fun

    It's too bad it will take a few weeks But I know it takes time to make an update.
    I'll just change my gameplay & concentrate more on bringing Chagall my archer up to 35

    I know will be great when it all works

    Not true.

    You can target in PVP, you just can't target in pve.

    In either game type, you can always untarget an enemy by taping your own character.

    Default This works for me

    Instead of trying to change targets just tap yourself until you have no target then reposition yourself and once the mob you want is closest to you then you should be able to target the new mob/player np.

    It rarely works with huge mob around u and trying to target one boss in it when u can't barely move due to constant hits

    I posted elsewhere, but maybe (how possible) the "TAB" system of cycling through targets (& locking) to give more choice? Definitely one of the key/core COMBAT mechanics to address. Thanks.

    Anyway this can be fixed sooner? Targetting is a crucial aspect of the game, and as it currently plays is becoming very fustrating. Thanks in advance

    If they submit 1.2.1 as an emergency "fix" to 1.2 because it was "game breaking", shouldn't Apple get it through faster!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

    This is true, and is what I have been doing mostly anyway, since tap to target is not great on a small screen with many bad guys. It's true it doesn't always work, but it's a decent work around.

    Royce & Dbawlz- you are right. It does help. I discovered last night that if I moved or waited, I could sometimes target my intended target. Sounds funny lol.

    BUT, Cooz is right. It rarely works in a large mob. If there is a boss in the swamp who comes up to me, and I cannot target him/her/, I die basically instantly while attacking some lesser insignificant bad guy

    I will say though that while it does negatively impact playing... It requires different gameplay, but it turns out I can still play what I want. I originally thought that I'd be stuck just lvling out my other characters because I kept dying... But trying to sneak up on the target or wait to target them lessens the dying so...

    I'll be thrilled when they can update & fix the prob, but I am ok in the meantime
