The path finding behaviour works perfectly... but perhaps you are making some mistakes with it's use. It can be tricky to get it working as expected if you haven't had much experience with it. I don't use it often myself - but I've had some successful experiments with it in the past.
The main things I would suggest to be careful of, is telling the behaviour to calculate the destination path too frequently. Once every 1-2 seconds is usually more than enough unless you have moving obstacles or incredibly fast moving objects. A common mistake that people make it getting the path to calculate every tick or every 0.2 seconds or similar.
Another common mistake is having cell sizes that are not an appropriate sizing for the design of sprites and game environment. Having cells that are too big or too small can make weird things happen.
Moving solids CAN pose problems, but there are even work-arounds and methods for dealing with this also.
I suggest you try path finder again, and use a simpler movement method once close to your point of "last seen".
