Truly what is the point in PTR when so many things don't get addressed

I spent a chunk of time in PTR testing specs for S2 keys and stumbled upon the ping bug many times, pinging an enemy sometimes gets me stuck on the ping animation making it impossible to target players and use mouse overs which is obviously a yikes for anyone but healing with this was impossible.

I reported it over and over on the PTR, and oh would you look here, what's this you say on live KR second boss when I'm frantically pinging adds as a hpala cause my HOG is on cool down and I need DPS to kick the group wiper. There it is, the bug again! And up until today the only fix I knew of is a hard reload, which for obvious reasons is a big nono when healing a group of vastly undergeared players in a 14. Apparently spamming ping can also fix it, although you may confuse your team mates!

I love this game and generally tend to be more on the apologist side of the room most of the time shamefully. But the absolute slop that blizzard is churning out recently is inexcusable. A bug like this should never and in years past would never have made it into live, let alone in a setting where you are literally limited by time which is further punished by wipes if your healer is unable to heal. Genuinely stunned in the worst possible way. People aren't even exaggerating when they talk about little to no QA.
