Still undecided as well, may just wait a weekend and see how everyone fares - kinda need a break after super try-harding POE1.

I don’t remember when I played bells, but I’ve never had a hard time targeting anything with controller.

Speaking of controller, really hope they fasttrack hotswapping to keyboard/mouse for 1.0. I played some of the D4 expac and a controller really does feel great for some of the classes/builds. Still would want a kb/m setup for stash and trading but just blasting maps I think I want a controller from now on.

Generally speaking it works really well, but it all comes down to target priority. Some skills/builds are absolute garbage with controller though. Lightning Arrow immediately comes to mind; LA itself is fantastic and gamepad auto-target is so good that it was vastly superior to using m/k for clearing maps, which required a massive dps hit from nova projectiles to accomplish the same thing (I'm talking pre nova rework, obviously). Unfortunately, Lightning Rod & Tornado Shot made the build complete ass to play vs. bosses where you actually need your max dps because those skills never go where you actually want them to when you use a controller.

Shit even on MnK it was hard to place a bell where you wanted it, right on top of the boss in the heat of battle, so it always ended up either behind him or way off to the side so then youre hitting the boss but not the bell. Or having to just reposition. I guess this is a gamer issue not a game issue, though, right? So you just have to be more conscious where your cursor is while hitting that bell button. This was on ice strike, which kinda has some "aim" to it even on MnK.
