    Again, you are all missing the point.
    You are in a Duty, DDing or maybe curing another party member when you realize, time to cure the tank. So You target the tank.

    The tank is targeted.
    The tank is in range.
    The tank STAYS in Range and STAYS targeted as you cast Cure, but it does NOT cure on them, it hiccups and cures you. It happens with or without macros.

    I don't know what causes it other than to say, it seemingly only happens when I switch from the mob as my target to the tank or from the tank to a party member for a targeted cure and don't wait a second. Basically, what I think is happening is some of us, have faster reaction times than the game and are switching targets and casting cures before the games delay catches up with us (IE lag). So for the SAME reason some people go 'DUDE I was out of that plume!...and you in fact see on video, they were on their screen, occasionally, in the heat of the moment, the same thing can happen with a Cure...that the game didn't process the switch in target but DID catch that you are casting a new spell'

    No, we're not too dumb to see that we don't have the tank targeted.
    No we're not all using macros.
    No we're not talking about when someone runs out of range... yes the same 'effect' happens, but that isn't what is being discussed.

    And no: Having to write Macro's to circumvent the issue isn't an answer. I'm faster than your macro..the only reason it is working is because the macro adds in the 1-2 seconds of delay you need for the data center to catch up to the information you are sending.

    I don't record my gameplay, but if there are WHM's having this problem who DO...can you record a couple instances of it happening and maybe post what those videos both here and in the bugs forum? It might be the only way to maybe get closer to remedying the issue. But until people can actually see I think it's going to be a 'your macro is wrong' debate, and not an oh...yeah wish that would stop happening too conversation.
