I've been off and on into GW2 for a few years now and was planning to come back right before EOD hits, I never knew this existed lol. Thank you for the great tutorial!
2:14 Can you explain how this is done? When I use left click I de-target my target and what key do you use to turn back around after hitting about face?
Hey sorry for the late reply. Clicking too quickly will detarget so you want to hold left click for a brief moment either before you press your about face key or as you're pressing your about face key. So the whole sequence would go like: 1. Hold W the entire time 2. Hold own left click 3. (after or simultaneously) Press about face key 4. Let go of left click 5. Right click to make your character turn around Hopefully that makes sense!
I hit my lock autotarget key before gs3 to detarget but once in a while the target UI takes a second to go away, so my guess is that I reclicked on the target before it went away and accidentally made it look like I never detargeted.
@@tchevensky7802 Yeah before you turn your character forward again, you have to wait about 3/4 of a second before using RMB otherwise the camera will not stay locked. I think practicing about facing with engi grenades is the best way to get good at it since the timing is pretty much the same as a grenade throw, give it a try!

Thanks for the pointers. This is the first beginner-friendly video I’ve found on the subject that actually explains what is going on.

Hi, how did you do that? 0:16 You had a target, but using skill 3 you ran through ?
I hit my lock autotarget key before gs3 to detarget but once in a while the target UI takes a second to go away, so my guess is that I reclicked on the target before it went away and accidentally made it look like I never detargeted.
Is there some modification which will press left mouse button automatically on about face, so then you just press about face only?
There isn't, it has to be done manually.
3:55 but when i rmb im gonna miss the target, so i need to retarget right ?
RMB wouldn't drop target but LMB would if you do a rapid click. If you hold LMB for a few frames after about facing it should not drop the target.
@@noz_fx but i need to wait a small delay to prevent the camera on following when im about to face eh? i think im doing it too quickly
