Better Lock on Concept

The current method of locking on to monster parts is very difficult and inconsistent. Many times a player selects the wrong target due to close proximity, or unclear what part of a monster the reticle belonged to. This generally wastes valuable scarce time, and makes certain drops difficult to obtain depending on the weapon choice.

This solution could be more reliable, and allow blademaster players an easier way to roll for rare drops in order to progress, as well as more overall convenience.

This would be huge! Hopefully this change would also allow us to select parts such as wings?

On second thought, while I do still like this, I don’t necessarily think it is feasible. It would be really hard, using this method, to differentiate between locking onto, for example, right vs left hind leg on any of our Brute Wyverns. Do you have a way around that issue?

When i think this looks good, especially with the graphic image and all, i feel like it would still act a bit hassle to move the finger that far, especially when using one hand

personally it would be easier if it was nearer to the current lock on button, and can be selected by holding the lock on button, and then swipe to specific direction

current concept of what i think could be used

so the larger menu is only(with option to always) appear when holding the lock on button, and the swipe to like up to lock on to head, and swipe upper left to lock on to left forelegs/left wing (still thinking if it should be left/right depends on point of view), and swipe down for tail

for stomach of jagras, it could be on the back part, as long as its persistent between most monster, so its easier to remember with muscle memory

probably could look like this in full view

I like this idea but there is too much variety in how monsters have lock-on spots. Take Barroth, for example. It has lock on for both its front and hind legs.

People stated that it could auto lock to the closer side, ei left leg if youre on the left side of a monster.
