    Shaman can see distant herbs using Far Sight and Find Herbs ability on his minimap.

    Problem is that gathermate known circles are still appearing based on current player location instead of the far sight target location. (Rendering the circles on wrong positions on minimap)

    However I am not sure if there is API support to get that coords from shaman Far Sight...

    This is also an issue for hunter talent Eagle Eye.

    This is something I would second as well. The minimap update's it's view based on Farsight, but the note locations do not. It looks like pin locations are based on self, is there a way to get the minimap coords for the minimap?

    The issue is in a library called HereBeDragons, which uses UnitPosition("player") to determine the current location.

     

    I've looked through the WoW API but I cannot find any API call that returns the correct coordinates when using Far Sight. So it seems to be impossible to do without action from Blizzard. Source: https://wow.gamepedia.com/World_of_Warcraft_API

     

    Correct me if I'm wrong!

    I am not aware of a way to determine the position of where your Far Sight currently is. The only API we have is specifically for a unit, eg. the player, not its camera, unfortunately.
