after i target the mob i run up to about 50 meters from it, i find the easist way to deal the magic crab proning i just kneel wait about 3-4 then go prone, and don't move till i kill everything, loot. then hit the nest once and start again.
try it.

Im so happy Im not the only one...so Im sad we ahve to deal with this. What i do is kneel first, then go prone. If I remeber correctly, this works also.

I've had this problem even beofre I made Novice Rifleman, so I don't think it's realated to skills. I usually kneel first then go prone, but I will still teleport even doing this if I do not wait a full 3 to 4 seconds kneeling before moving to prone. I believe it is linked to the time delay of the aforementioned "You cannot perform this action while running" issue. Waiting 4 seconds isn't always a good idea though, (nor is it fun for the impatient). I'll have to try the retargeting approach, anything that I can do to keep this from happening is a very welcome suggestion.
