Hey,

This phenomenon has been happening all the time, in every singe Battleground.

So what is it?
It seems like the positions/actions of the players don't get updated frequently enough or one of their past positions/animation gets stuck, and they just keep running in one place. Even the map shows them to be in that position. But when I wait like 10 seconds near them, they then get updated, and show their real position.

Example: I just joined Eye of the Storm, probably like a few seconds after it has begun. There were already 3 players stuck in constant movement, but remaining in one place. Then when I got closer to them that "illusion" disappeared, and they re-appeared in their real position further away.
Thankfully this doesn't really happen in close combat though.

This is an extremely strange happening. And it is the most annoying bug there is. It completely ruins proper coordination and awareness on the map. It is also really infuriating just to see it multiple times in just one battleground.

Any way to fix this? What could cause it?
/I have 40ms ping so the problem is not on my end, definitely server-side/

Have you thought of changing servers? Updating it? Because it seems like there are some real stability issues.

their position stuck when and where players going out of your "visual detect" radius (max range where you can see those players) and getting updated when you actually comeback into that range with those players. we have it for a very long time already, at least 4+ month (might be more, i just can't remember).

There is some similar shit with pets(lock hunter)

pets stuck for different reason actually, there are something with dual spec.

It's pretty frustrating though. Did Henry really have to make this compromise?...

But dual spec tho.

Oh thank god, I'm not the only one who sees this shit. I see this on pets more frequently than players, but everyone I told had no idea what I was talking about.
