Strange party arrow behaviour

[Pjotr84]

Earlier tonight I was trying to reach someone in my buddy list by partying him and following the arrow. He did the same, but the weird thing was that both our arrows pointed to middle left. How do I have to interpret this? Are we just so far apart the game directed one of us to go around the map first?

Don't trust them arrows D:

Your best option is to right click the party symbol of your buddy and click follow, this will send you in the general direction.

Ok, I'll try that the next time, thanks.

Or you could just left click their icons and your character will head to them.

The arrows are known to be buggy and commonly mess up when a party is formed, or when leaving/entering a house/cave. Left clicking the party portrait should send you directly to them.
