    Default Serious auto-target annoyance

    There appears to be some skill (possibly Suppression) that can cause other players' auto-target to switch away from an enemy. This happened today while we were in Uncharted Ruins, fighting a Vular Tankoid, causing me to fire at the other Vular Tankoid next to it (waking it up, and causing me to be under attack from both!) before I realized what was happening. We recovered, but this is very irritating.

    I agree...very irritating, especially when some people spam it constantly.

    Suppression was patched a while back so that target is dropped by everybody targeting a suppressed mob, so it's less likely to be broken.

    Yes, and it is very annoying. I tend to target the newest tough baddie with pain as an engineer, and this annoys me to no end. Let me do my job, do not change my target. It more often does more harm then good.

    The skill in question is definitely Suppression - My engineer still loses target when I use it on a mob, and I'm sure that all the other players lose target as well when the enemy is in suppression.
