While playing the game this last weekend I noticed that my Shaman and Monk both would have a random auto-drop on mouse cursor when using any totems that are placed with the green circle (ie. earthen wall, surging totem, spirit link) or using my exploding keg also a placed spell. It is completely random when it happens with the exception that the first peaceable spell I use always works right. I disabled all my add-ons and the issue was still present. I did find that Turning “press and hold casting” in the settings off stopped the auto-drop and when it was turned back on it went back to auto-dropping at random.
Did an in game report but wanted to add it here for others to find if they have the same problem.
Since it’s only happening sometimes, it’s possible you are holding the key-bind a tad longer than you need. If you click your abilities, there is some weird bug where the game sometimes double-clicks even if you only press the button once.
With press and hold, you would need to hold the button (keyboard or mouse) until it’s in the position you want, then it will drop when you let go. So it could even be latency.
To clarify the random is that it might be the second cast or the 4th cast never the first. It happens every time i play my monk and shaman (the only ones i have played on). I also tested what you said. I have everything key bound so no clicking. I did try clicking them however and did not get the issue.
I also tried what you said in the second part about pressing and holding until its in the spot you want then releasing it. That does not work that way on my game if i press and hold it then release it nothing happens I have to mouse click on the ground for it to place it in world unless it does its wired auto-drop (its working just like the drop at cursor macro i see a lot of people use).
Thank you for your thoughts
