Auto Target After Attack

[DaHobbit]

I think there should be some type of setting where a player can automatically target another player once that player attacks. Maybe even a warning sign that displays a message that another player has targeted you, and maybe then asks if you want to target that player? It can be frustrating when another player attacks and you have to try to lock onto that player, which can sometimes be very difficult if there are numerous players or monsters around. While you are trying to mount a defense, the other player has free access to kill you. Depending on the levels of the players, the attacker can kill you before you can finally get a lock.

Though this may not be a solid idea as I can see some issues with an auto target, or messages about being targeted.

If a player is border fighting or there are many other players/monsters around, some type of auto target would be very useful in order to make the fight fair, or at least have a chance to defend oneself.

Please understand I do not PvP, so this is coming from someone with no experience. I think the notification that comes up saying ' player so and so attacked you' would be better if you were notified ' player so and so has targeted you'. Maybe with the notification you could be given the option to target them? Press to target them, or press to leave them alone.
