When a card or ability says "target opponent", "chosen opponent" or "target player", do you roll for the target?

Several experienced players agree that cards let you choose the target and only offensive abilities roll for it.

Usually not. Cards and abilities that name a target or a chosen opponent let you pick the target yourself, with no targeting roll, and that holds in any player count. A targeting roll applies to an offensive ability's effects that have no choice, such as dealing damage or inflicting a status effect, and one roll covers all such statements. In a two-player game the roll is skipped.
