Hello,
Have you guys encountered what happens below or it is my fault for not understanding something?

It happens at times that the game itself automatically shifts your target, and in one of those scenarios, where you use your villain Catherine to attack enemy villain using her first ability and where you normally target enemy villain before tapping ability button, it happens at times that after having targeted enemy villain, the game shifts your targeting onto surrounding mob the moment you tap your ability button and as a result, you fail to strike enemy villain thus lose one of your opportunities in battle and at times you lose the battle which you otherwise would have won. (Note: It happens while the enemy villain is NOT out of sight,but instead,is in front of you.)

What is your opinion?

Should the game developer look into this targeting mechanism and look for possible improvement? Or it is fine the way it is?

No that never happens, it's probably your own device that's malfunctioning

Ok,***boy,what do you mean by malfunctioning?

Well I will help and put it in a way that you will understand, YOUR DEVICE IS F****** BROKEN.

**** you

Hey Aeris, make sure you're not tapping on the enemy hero and the ability at the same time, some devices will then shift the touch to between the two point, so keep it as two distict taps.

Try being a little kinder, people are only trying to help.

Damn, so much salt, an ocean couldn't hold it.

This only happens to me when the enemy hero dies before I get to him.

So my Catherine turns around and stuns the minion closest to her.

It's probably because the enemy hero got out of range. Since you targeted him first, that means Catherine will go towards him unless canceled via tapping elsewhere. However, if the enemy hero moves away from your sight range while you are dashing towards, Catherine will attack the nearest enemy.

Instead of first targeting an enemy, I usually dash first so this rarely happens.

You are absolutely right. That is exactly what happens to me, I will next time try waiting a bit before tapping ability although it could be a bit frustrating since there is need to tap ability as soon as enemy villain is targeted. Also, I'm using iPad mini 2, could the issue be related to iPad or other iOS device?



I really wish they were trying to help, but all i received from them so far is their impertinence.



Bad community.




Yes, that is one scenario where your Catherine misses enemy villain, however, in case you did not notice, I have stated in my OP that enemy villain wasn't out of sight when it happens as what I experienced was something else, which Shagalicious seems to have answered accurately.



It is a good quick fix though.
