Paracausal Fragment of Frostmourne causing target flicker

[Thistle-boulderfist]

This trinket causes other players to target you for 1/10th of a second, then untarget you, over and over and over. Friendly, neutral, hostile, doesn’t matter. If someone in town is wearing that trinket, their portrait will be flickering on your interface.

The only way to tell what the hell is going on is the /targetlasttarget command. It happens too quickly to see who is responsible.

Yeah this issue has been going on since 10.1.5 and was reported back then. I was hoping we’d move away from it with the trinkets being made irrelevant but then they boosted the item level of all Dreamsurge and Time Rift rewards, so here we are.

Here’s the original thread. This trinket wasn’t discovered as the source until further in.

Flicker targeting of other players

I’m not sure if this is a bug, but I’ve noticed this odd thing over the last few days. I’ll be flying around the Dragon Isles, and for a brief instant I’ll auto-target another player, and then stop targeting them. (I assumed I was losing target is because I’m flying out of range of them, but I started doing very quick turns where I shouldn’t be out of range, and the de-targeting still happens.) But I have no idea why I’m targeting them in the first place. I’m not typing much of anything when f…

Re: Random targeting/un-targeting

Not entirely sure how to explain this, I’ll be running around Valdrakken and randomly my game will start targeting and un-targeting players in an instant, too fast to get a look at who is actually being targeted. On a similar note, I’ll be running around with my dressing room window open looking at appearances and then the game will randomly shuffle between 2-3 other players gear sets and put them on my character in the dressing room… keep in mind I turn with my mouse so I’m not targeting anyone…

Probably. The issue has been around the block a few times, to say the least.
