Since 10.1, I’ve had this issue in arenas.
Sometimes, in my party frames, a teammate will randomly fade out as if they’re out of range. But, they’re not actually out of range. It’s really disconcerting during combat because you think you can’t heal that teammate.
When I was watching Absterge’s stream, he had this issue too.
Has anyone else experienced this?
I have as well
Looks like it’s something new that came up like this week sometime. I been noticing this a lot.
Since the start of the season its been happening afaik
But why? Like it makes no sense…
wtb fix paying 10g
Felt like something was off, I’d be.getting trained barely moving and fall off range on frames
Would notice my healer rushing to me to while we’re only like 25y apart
I’d submit a bug report, but I wasn’t sure if this is a widespread problem for healers.
Or maybe it only happens to a few people, and it’s because of some addon, and it has nothing to do with Blizzard’s UI.
i think its using evoker ranges for some reason, but yeah having same issue.
I think this is a Devoker ability doing it. I’m pretty sure their fire breath either acts as a line of sight pillar the same way the mage frost wall does, or there’s some other mechanic behind it.
Edit:
It’s an honor talent called Divide and Conquer.
“Deep Breath forms a wall of fire for 8 sec, preventing line of sight through the wall. Enemies who cross through the wall are damaged for x.”
I checked Absterge’s VOD, there was no Evoker in the game.

That might be what’s going on.
I wanted to check if other healers were experiencing this issue too.
Or maybe someone already found a solution.
it was happening to me too I was noticing I couldn’t coil or fear cuz it was out of range. And it was always against a shaman. Then I found out it’s the new spell burrow. Look again at what happened in the video the shaman burrowed in the opener outta range of Absterge.
But the issue is the party frame indicates they’re out of range by fading out, but they’re actually still in range.
You would have been able to coil/fear them.
But the shaman was in range because Absterge was still healing him. His party frame just made it look like he was out of range by fading out.
It’s because he’s underground. Untargable with attacks. Idk if he can still be healed.
Idk I just noticed everytime a shaman burrows it shows them out of range even if he is burrowing to me.
Also, based on their conversation after the game, I think Absterge was having issues with the warlock’s range too.
Thanks for bringing this up though. The next time I notice this issue, I’ll check to see if it’s related to a shaman.
Ah then maybe I’m wrong. I just noticed I was having targeting/range issues with burrowing shamans and saw the shaman use burrow in the opener in that video. But might be something else.
I might have misunderstood their conversation after the game in the VOD.
To me, it seemed like Absterge was saying he was having issues with the warlock’s range.
Later in the conversation, Absterge brought up that he was also having issues with the shaman’s range at the beginning of the game.
So, his party frame’s range indicator was just messed up in general.
I don’t know, maybe another high rated PvPer can watch the VOD and listen to Absterge’s conversation after the game to see if I’m confused.
