Auto-Targetting on Monk is quite bad (console)

I've been leveling up a Monk, now at act 3. Primarily using Ice strike, together with Tempest Bell, Frost Wall and Frost Bomb. Under the dynamic targeting, it says it would target based on enemy distance and character facing. However, for casting Spells like Frost Wall and Frost Bomb it seems to always cast it a distance even when the enemy is just next to me. Also there seems to be this strong magnet attracting me to the Tempest Bell. Sometimes I've finished killing one mob with the Bell, I'm trying to move on to the next enemy, but my Ice strike will just port me over to the Bell. Its the same for the Frost Wall. Sometimes I'm facing an enemy directly, but with Ict Strike I leap towards hitting the Frost Wall, which is further away from the enemy from where I am, and also not in the direction of where my character is facing.

Having little positional control over your character is just not a good feeling.
