I select a target with my mouse, it’s highlighted and its health info appears at top of screen as normal BUT when I go to fire at it two things happen:

(1) My arrows streak off at the closest neutral or enemy target.
(2) The arrows thud straight down into the ground at my feet.

I’m finding it happening more and more in the last few days (started 3 days ago tops) and it’s making it hard for me to play as my ranger.

Personally I hope this wasn’t being done to try and stop the ranger bots which swarm orr and other areas. Anyone else having this problem?

Yes, I’m having this problem too. I target a mob, start firing, but the target changes quite arbitrarily, while the mob I’ve selected is still well and truly alive and bouncing. There appears to be no pattern as to which mob becomes the target. It started within the last week, no more. It can be incredibly frustrating trying to to find the original target in a big event, and I’m losing kills and drops because I can’t stay on a target. If someone calls target, my character responds appropriately, but targets still become deselected randomly thereafter. It’s frustrating and depressing. If I’m in a group, frankly, I’d just like to cry. It’s worse than useless when you pull something other than the original selected boss down on your party.
