So I tested this in the PTR, and had issues with the Raid frames in BG’s and raids showing the correct distant for people in the raid. I reported it on the PTR on every character I had I was healing on. I tested this with no addons, repaired the client and even uninstalled and installed a new client. Reported what I found.
Fast forward to TBC pre patch, the bug is still there. New client, repaired client, with addons or without. It makes healing unplayable. The only option at this point it to either stop playing healer or /console reloadui every time you move and want to heal.

Noticed this as well, disabled all addons and still had the issue. Just not playing healer until it is fixed cause ya, frustrating.

I also tested this on the PTR. I bug reported this on the PTR. I assumed PTR was there to fix bugs prior to release of patches onto the live game. Guess.. not?
Blizzard is trying to move away from addons in retail you’d think they would have systems in place to not need them on tbc. This has been an issue since day1 of the PTR.
I personally haven’t seen any single comment from blizz about this, and it’s a MAIN aspect of healer gameplay. The lack of communication really makes it difficult to trust they are even aware of, or reading bug reports if they were put in back during PTR.
Currently without an Addon, healing in the game feels like trash with the frames being broken the way they are. My only “fix” without going the addon rout is turning on friendly name plates, which is a horrible way to heal.
I hope they prio this and fix it asap. It’s a major part of the game that sure, we can go get an addon for but… we shouldn’t have to. The frames in classic worked so much better, and tbh I enjoyed them. I had 0 issues with the classic raid frames, 5, 10, 15, 40man didn’t matter they worked great. I have no idea why these are so busted, still. And why you can’t adjust them by groups/sort them the way you want etc. It feels like a step backwards in my opinion.
Here’s to hoping this fix will come sooner rather than later.

Same issue it’s EXTREMELY annoying especially in BGS. In 5 man ive reverted back to default UI frames instead of raid frames.
