    I find it to be very disorienting when I fight one mob, but constantly turn to face another. I took this video at Area: Eastreach Gap (Novia_R4_Desert01_EastreachGap) Loc: (-132.0, 130.0, -124.3), but it's in issue everywhere. Not sure if bug or intended mechanic, but it can be annoying.

    +1 to this. As a GM 2 handed mace fighter, that can hit up to 3 mobs at once, this problem happens to me all the time.

    This used to annoy me too. I think it happens when a mob moves out of range. Avatar will turn to hit nearest mob, but resume the primary target when it comes back in range. Actually I think now that I like this behavior.

    Can force yourself to stay looking one direction with the right mouse held down. Bad design currently.

    Not exactly what's in the video, but I've seen Death Touch turn me to face the selected (targeted) opponent, while swinging a bludgeon glyph turns my avatar to face "forward" based on the camera.
