Shift Attack Q.

[Dennis_KoreanGuy]

Hey. I have a short question on shift attack.

If you hold shift and attack, any opponent / monster that comes within range of your weapon will automaticall be targeted, even though its 180 degrees away from the direction you are attacking in?

So it would automatically turn my char around if I was facing in exact opposite direction? Or must I be facing the general way for it to work?

I think it has to be in their general direction. There are exceptions like Fury.

Hmm that's what I thought too when I tested with fallens / zombies.

thx. unless anyone can prove otherwise. :smiley:

Any attack that automatically switches between monsters in range will work with shift-attack regardless of direction.

He meant that Fury is an exception to the rule that you need to target in the general direction of the thing you want to hit in order to actually hit it, so he was actually right.

Fury, Zeal, and Fend are the three auto-aim melee skills that come to mind.

Frenzy is an "adjacent targets" skill too, I believe.
