Ray Execute can't hit target in crosshair when multiple targets in area.

How did this get passed beta? I aim my crosshair and I shoot. Yet the beam goes on to somebody nowhere near my crosshair, someone further than the target, someone behind the target, someone out of my view box....(21:9 btw)..This unreliability is causing me matches! You can smart heal, smart this, smart that.. but you can't smart execute? We don't have choice otherwise it would NOT be going on people nowhere near the crosshairs. This is SABATAUGE!!

Now I see why spinning is the best execute. News flash, NBs don't matter because they are built for 1 v 1 as they can disappear when things go south. Templar needs a huge rework. it's skill just make no sense anymore in an offensive sense. It's outdated. Like the templar ulti heal....Resistances don't mean ANYTHING nowadays...EXPECIALLY WHEN YOU STUCK STANDING IN ONE PLACE!! Then its a HEAL OVER TIME ...1 burst per second... here's a quick fix... since we can't move anyways. Make us invincible during the channel...that should fix it.

Now I have to go run around closing time rifts because undo is more viable than the templar ulti. Simply because I GET TO MOVE!! Also the resto ult...that thing is simply amazing. I want to use it but it requires a resto staff. If Dual Wield didn't have the speed buff I'd be on it. I might go ahead and do that. Hmm..closing time rifts or farming for a resto staff...oh wait! I am using a crafted set!!! CYA!!! Tell me, oh great ones, why haven't you made another ULTI that has the person sit in one place? Either you know it's BS to require that or you want templars to use paid heal avenues. Simply thinking it is fine, is a low probability.

    There is this really unique and groundbreaking feature called 'Tab Targeting' that you might want to look into.

    I concur on the targeting....my zoom is so far out that sometimes I'm forced to specifically target an enemy.

    Tab targeting does not do anything except highlight.

    That's not accurate. Tab target a dragon and then try to target another enemy nearby—sometimes it even makes you target them when facing away from them.

    It doesn't fix OP's issue all the way, but it helps. The rest of it is just positioning and aiming. I personally like how it can take spacing and a clear shot to aim well. I mean, except when I accidentally hit a spider with it.

    Tab targeting in ESO (aka Preferred Target) makes the game client ignore targetable objects between your character and the tabbed target. In other words, if something is in the way of your tabbed target then you will still attack it.

    This is very important for PvP and PvE raids/arenas.

    Tab targeting, the time it takes to hit and toggle through that button, you'll be dead in PVP... end of story...This ain't skyrim. That second when they are below 25 to 60% is the time it takes to hit that button.

    Tab is NOT an option.

    Well, if your fingers don't work, I suppose you're SOL. Imagine calling for a huge class rework because you can't be bothered to use Tab Targeting.

    'This ain't Skyrim'

    Right, so you should learn how to tab target.

    It has nothing to do with my fingers not working. Did you understand what I said in the previous comment?

    By the time you hit the tab button and shuffle through the targets to get the right target, the person will have already healed out of the execute range rendering the skill useless.

    Where did I ever say I wanted a class rework? I stated I wanted the aiming system to be accurate. Not rely on the current smart targeting system it has. Heals can heal the lowest target without any input. Why can't ranged executes hit the lowest target in view and range? If they can't make it truly aim on the right person through the crosshairs? Why would anybody target the highest healthed person with an execute? In fact this needs to be extended to that psijic heal as well.

    This is a simple fix and no rework is needed.

    Take a step back and wonder why you are on the offensive on a real problem in the game. What is it you are gaining or losing and why does it bother you? Then explain yourself instead of missing the mark of the conversation started here.

    This would be hilarious and super overpowered with Endless Fury + Gladiator set.

    Allow it. I don't mind at all. I should be a little clearer though I don't mean the full viewing screen. I mean near the crosshairs. Nobody aims at a full healthed person in PVP. Nobody. It's not OP, it's dead to rights.

    So it would be an area of a straight line from the user to whatever target is in that straight area path that is slightly wider than the width of the user. IT only lies from the user to how ever distance the skill goes from the plane that includes the crosshair.

    I hope that is not too confusing. Kind of like...warden....subterranian area. It will seek the lowest healthed person in it.

    It has to happen. Now I am willing to listen to why it shouldn't. So long as it's a single target ranged execute...you know this needs to be added to more skills actually. I'd love tossing the blade in dual wield if it went to the lowest healthed targets.

    I have targets tabbed and my shot still hits something else. Usually the pet or a close by dremora. Targeting and location really need a good checking and refresh.
