I have been using a PS4 controller since a few hours into Diablo 4 - wanted a bit better control/targeting precision for my rogue so I am trying to switch back to keyboard and mouse and it’s like I am incapable of adapting.

Keyboard and mouse feels so weird, but I know plenty of people prefer it so it can’t just be BAD. Anyone have any suggestions how to make keyboard and mouse a little less awkward? Keybindings maybe?

You know what’s weird is I have never used the controller for another game on PC, always stuck with keyboard.

    First diablo I play with a controller.

    It’s pretty good. But I get annoyed by the targeting, middle of a big batte?

    Let’s shoot that barrel off to the side instead of the mobs in front of us!

      Pushing in right analog stick lets you toggle between auto targeting (default) and manual targeting. Manual targeting keeps the red icon above one enemies head and you move the right stick to switch between enemies. That way you can choose who you’re targeting.

      I tried to use manual targeting for some of my druid skills (trample) but couldn’t get the hang of it. It was too much to micro manage while trying to stay alive in a fight. You may find it works for you though.

        It is kinda essential for bosses though, at least with a kiting class/build. Went from „this is impossible „ to acing one immediately.
