Guild Wars 2

The squad marker for targets, used to behave tag-like on the mini map, with the marker following along the target. However, now it doesn’t and behave like a fixed position marker on the mini map.

In WvW I’ve noticed that it seems to apply correctly to the player targeted, but the display of the icon seems only accurate to within some range of the initial application site. The range itself doesnt appear to be a raw static distance, but within a session seems to be the same. At times seen it only work in melee range of the application and other times I can walk around an entire objective with it displayed just fine. When it disappears it EITHER does so instantly OR bit by bit from either the top or the bottom like it’s getting pushed out of view. The minimap location of the marked player is almost always static.

This makes it a huge pain to use for ‘off target’ following, such as ‘stand here for heals’ or ‘Squads XYZ follow this guy for pincer style tactics’

Also squad markers can disappear from screen depending on camera angle, rotation and/or location.
