Target lock is a great option especially for some like me who have messed up hands and can’t really manipulate 2 sticks as fast in a fight, i tend to use it quite a bit and have noticed that it could do with a range extension of possibly 10 to 15 feet.
It seems target lock is at the range of the distance when an npc will start their attack.
So being able to lock on before all this would really help in a fight, especially when a lot of Npcs begin with a massive lunge attack that will either hit you or miss you and put them behind you on the missed attack, for me without target lock i cant spin around fast enough to block the next attack after they just MISSED their own attack.
Please consider extending target lock by a few extra feet as honestly it’s not gonna hurt anything in the end
