Like the title says. It's pretty annoying and I hope there's a fix for this.

    Starting last week, the game has been freezing up every time I try to inspect someone who is not in front of me.

    It doesn't matter which map I'm on, and it happens whether I am inspecting by right-clicking a name from the chat screen or right-clicking a name from a queue group.

    Using ctrl-f to inspect someone in view still works without crashing.

    Please approve Gameclient.exe in Windows Defender and see if that fixes your issue.

    Excluding Gameclient.exe did seem to fix the crashing on inspection for me.

    same issue -no fix on exclude
    Please fix Zhentarim Warlock companion's skill "Arcane Warping" to the originally intended "Arcane Boost"

    Pure -> Transcendent Plague Fire weapon enchantment giving 80damge/20 seconds for 500k+ AD is a joke.

    same issue here, when I am in line of site and inspect it works but if I am inspecting on friends list or find player menu it crashes

    I've had this problem triggered by 2 interfaces. The game freezes (NO fps and music/cursor still working) for around 30 to 90 seconds. I also noticed the startup time of the gameclient (after clicking "play" in launcher) is delayed by atmost 10 seconds.

    1) Inspecting other players, not necessarily from a certain location. (not always triggered)
    2) Opening companions screen. (only first time)

    I don't know what caused this issue, but it stopped happening(i rebooted couple times since). And I suspect it was caused by something in windows 10, by some search/indexing service or file-protection/scanner. (i don't use any 3rd-party firewalls/antivirus software not included in Windows OS)
