Description

This bug is affecting all meleeclasses and their way of using stylecombos, in advanced combat!
Normally you should be able to continue your stylecombos(for example 3chain stylecombo PA + creeping death + stunning stab) even if you switch target during the performance!
For example a stealther wanna hit on a duo(playerA + playerB)
He opens fight with a "PA" on playerA, switches over to playerB and performs "creeping death" which stuns playerB, switches again to playerA and performs "stunning stab" etc.

On uthgard this doesnt work atm. Your combo will always be restricted to the first target you started styling on and if you try to switch targets during your combo the game will tell you "You must perform the X style before this one!" and you pretty much fail your whole combo:/

Bug is present in both, rvr and pve.

This has huge impact on meleeclass that rely on their strong stylecombos(reaver,svg,vw and infi/sb/ns i could think of)

Maybe these issues are linked somehow with...
https://uthgard.org/tracker/issue/2516/@/Reactionary_styles_not_lasting_through_stuns


https://uthgard.org/tracker/issue/2500/@/VW_meleebug:_Missing_special_mechanic_when_evade/parry

And that makes it the second "missing" meleemechanic hurting VW, bleh!

Reproduction Steps

1. Log any melee that has access to stylechains that have a opener (evade/parry) or side/back etc. Infi/sb/ns also works with the PA-combo
2. Find several enemies in rvr or pve(grey mobs or testnpc do the job)
3. Start your stylecombo on a target and try to perform the followup on a different target that is nearby.
4. compare with live

Intended Behavior

Fix the mechanic to appear "livelike". pls ! ! !

Live: Infi successfully performs his PA-combo on 3 different mobs
