Druid gets stuck in water indefinitely

[Toney001]

Hey guys!

I bought Honorbuddy last week and I'm loving it... except for one thing:
Like the title says, my druid gets randomly stuck jumping in water trying to flight form while using gatherbuddy (happens when questing too).

I've looked around and saw something about a macro for bar3 button 1, but that didn't work.
Hell, I've put the macro in every single button of every single bar, with no success.

The macro is fine, when I manually hit it, the toon mounts up.

Plz help. It's quite frustrating.
It's afkability is hit and miss. It'll either go for 5 hours without a hitch, or get stuck 20 mins after I leave the house.

Thanks in advance!

PS. I've been blackspotting stuck positions, but it always seems to find another place to get stuck.

This is a known bug with the last few drops of Honorbuddy.

The timing is waaaay off between when the Druid jumps out of the water, and when it tries to insta-cast flight form. Honorbuddy is not smart enough to 'fall back' to a normal mount after a few such failed attempts to use Flight Form.

Unfortunately, the Druid flying code is somewhat hard-coded, so there is no viable work-around at the moment either.

The 'Bar3' stuff you found is for Gatherbuddy1, and doesn't apply to Honorbuddy/Gatherbuddy2.

Thanks for the reply.

That said, this is a pretty obscene bug, and it's upsetting to know it's been known for long. This should have priority to be fixed, considering druids are the best herbalists in the game.
Now I'll have to level yet another toon (I started a fresh account as to not risk losing the account I have a legendary staff in)... sigh...

does this happen when you are herbing in vashjir?

Haven't tried yet, my druid is L77.
I got a fresh account to go with HB. It's happened in Zangarmarsh, Borean Tundra, Howling Fjord and Sholazar (which are the only places I've really been to that have water).

I'm kinda afraid to let it go without my supervision (which is the point of HB). It just got stuck again after 15 mins of turning it on.
If It happens overnight and someone sees it jumping on the water all night long, then I'm fucked .

Guess I'll have to farm deepholm until I get a Paladin leveled up...

This is a god damn horrible bug. It ruins my farming, and yesterday I came back to see someone watching me just jump up and down.
