Problem with targeting

[Kaynin]

I'm not sure if my way is the best way to do it or not, but I have a macro that I assign to my "X" key for all my toons. That macro is to /assist maintoon. With my main, I select my target with my mouse, press the X button, all other toons automatically targt the mains target. It can get a little tedious doing it for every mob, but it works. If anyone has a better way, I'd love to hear it.

That is -the- way of lets say your main is a tank and your alts the dps. That way you can retarget at will on your main while your alts remain on theirs.

For PvP however, I'd go with the above described way. you generally always focus the same target on your mains as well as alts and focusing your main while using [target=focustarget] macro's would then save the problem of pressing an extra key.
Or put the /assist maintoon inside the dps macro's. Though personally I prefer using focus myself, not sure why though.

If you have CC, you should use assist tho since your cc's will need focus for their CC. But that's the only reason not to use focus on your main. And a seperate button for targeting will only matter in PvE when your main is tanking multiple mobs/ switching targets. In all other situations I can think off, you should just combine it with the dps keys.
