I just traveled 9k to find out my markran off the map. And thats definitely not the first time this has happened. I also get fail the mission when my mark is in a large body of water. Seems to happen alot, especially on corellia for some reason.
anyone have any tips on saving myself from wasting my time on these bugged missions?

If you stay around 500m away from the mark when they are over the water and wait they will move inland - It can take upto a seeker cycle for it to happen.
When you get within a certain range 200-300m the NPC actually spawns so if he's over water it will incomplete the mission.

I actually did that the last time and the mark moved to what seemed to be land, but just my luck, still over water - mission incomplete.
and I just had an elite boss mark with 34k health just disappear on me in the middle of the fight. I had him half way down and poof. And before that I had a mark spawn in a tree and I couldn't attack it.
this crap gets me completely frustated, especially when I'm out in the middle of nowhere in a non build planet where the nearest starport is 5k+ away

I just started getting into the habit of cancelling the mission if I see it's too close to the edge of a map or in the middle of a body of water. In the time it takes to travel all that way and get hosed, I can easily pick up another mission and be well onmy way.
Oh, and I had a boss NPC disappearduring the fighttoday also on Dantooine, but I'm betting it had more to do with general Dantooine grinderlag then anything else.

the one that disappeared on me was on yavin, i was 56m away and he didn't seem to be doing any dmg to me. It was odd and then when his health was halfway down he decided it was time to go to swg bug heaven.

As far as the rocks and trees, I've heard dropping a basic camp kit will fix that most of the time.

I will try that, these elite boss marks are hard to come by and drop the best stuff. Though I have to travel 24 thousand meters to kill this frickin thing since I don't have any resources on me

If you're out in the boonies, why not just kill a few random mobs and harvest enough for a camp kit? Well, I guess that wouldn't help unless you carry your general crafting tool around with you, but I do anyway since I'm an old smuggler lol.
