    -There's some random Chinese characters floating around here and there.

    -On the expansion launch night, I noticed that one of my assassin's skill descriptions had a typo in it. Not sure if this has been changed.
    If you find any typos or Chinese text in the future, please include a screenshot. It makes it much easier to find and fix.
    When trying to create a Tideborn character I am unable to see them. I've already checked my computer and the graphics are the required for my system so I don't think that's the problem.

    Have you tried the Verify button on the launcher?
    When I alt-tab out and in of PW, or change the resolution in the game, the game client doesn't recapture the mouse; so every time I click, the comp thinks I'm clicking on the desktop and minimizes the game client. The cursor also looks like the regular windows cursor, rather than the PW cursor.
    Running dual monitor (game client on monitor 1), 1280x1024 & 1024 x 768, on an ATI Radeon X1650 PCI Express video card. Windows XP, game version 233.
    Ever since the rising tide updates were put in the game every time i alt tab the game and try to come back it crashes, and after the release i am even scared of doing instances am bound to crash in there what the hell is wrong ?
    Try installing the East-Asian Language Packs.

    Prior to the expansion, I don't think I had this problem. Sometimes, when I hover over characters (or just am in a certain camera angle) their graphics totally mess up, as you can see in the screenshot...The thing at the left indeed is a NPC which I hovered on. This bug is really annoying, sometimes it stops, sometimes it does it for 20 minutes straight.

    Sorry for double post, I don't know how to edit. I discovered that this problem only appears after I have been in dragonfang village. If I did not go there after having logged in, the problem doesn't appear. This might be linked to the extreme lag i experience whenever I approach the Vanguard there.

    Could you post the screenshot again? It didn't parse right the first time.

    I saw someones saying that the blackscreen glitch had a commun fact ; laptop.
    I'm sorry to say that, but my boyfriend do not own a laptop and has that glitch too.
    At least, when he lower the graphics, it happens a lil bit LESS, it doesnt stop, just, that I happen more rarely.

    For the skin dismatched glitch, I wrote alot of time about it, cause it's probably one of the glitch that annoy me the most, why I found attractive this game first, was because all players looks DIFFERENTS, this is a MMORPG like most of the others, but the customisation was a real PLUS to that game. Since the Tideborne, I first had that glitch ONLY with Tideborns, now, since the new update, dunno why, but also the others classes start to have this glitch, but when I'm "far" from them. I need to be really in a close up to see them all the same color.

    Also, the Ebony something pets (get him at lvl 19 I think, near those glacial walker too), when you tame them, they change their name to Seamonster Guardian, and even their APPARENCE change, actually, doesnt matter me that much, both are cool, but kinda strange, no?

    All for the moment, gotta sleep, but the glitch that is really annoying to me, it's the skin matche color.
    Wanted a blue skin from the begining of this game (started to play almost when that game started, a year ago, even if I quit a lot and restarter a lot or char) and now that we DO have one, I cannot even get it! : /

    It may be just me, but the psy skills graphic animation of Aqua Impact and Spirit Blast seems to be mixed up.
    When i use Aqua Impact it looks like an earth attack and when i use Spirit Blast it looks like a water attack when it s supposed to be the contrary.
    But once again that may be just me

    During my travels throughout PW I have found several minor glitches/issues. The items listed below are all pretty much the same. They are either things like items missing or maybe plants stuck in stairs. If you go to each location you can't miss them.

    578 761 - Look on each side of the wall
    551 625
    581 792
    450 565
    549 681

    One other issue I have noticed with the Tideborn Expansion is that at certain times while leaping and moving forward at the same time, my character gets stuck in a jumping loop and cannot move forward. I was able to get out of several of these loops by stopping and then alternating the actions.

    Memory leak is still here. Grows from 500mb to well over 1GB after playing. It's clearly pwi's bug as it's not even using the graphical ram. It's only using 256mb of that out of the 1GB it has. But it grows from 500mb slowly to over 1GB during my play. Also it starts lagging like crazy. GOO BUGS.

    I have been getting this quite a lot. I move forward and I keep getting "rubber banned" back to my staring point. Kinda like my avatar is in a loop of some kind. I have exited the game and re-log a number of times and am still getting this. The only thing that will fix it is if I warp to the nearest town, which by the way is not very near to where I was heading! b:sad
    Here is a screen capture of where I got stuck this time. Hope you can fix this.

    From another topic
    Tidenborn see mobs with a name, other class with another

    Neon Worm = fluorescent worm
    Gnome Tombthief = Fen Grave Robber
    probable other never see every mob

    Eggs of new pet have other name:
    mob:Shadow Ranger - egg: Dark Wanderer
    mob: Ebony Hellduke - egg: seamonster guardian
    The ebony change also the image of pet from mob-pet

    mob: Icewave Siren - egg: Ochean Chanter

    and

    Venomancer make 2 jump quest at lv 4 Beast Jump quest and Tideborn Jump quest

    1)all "soul..." buffs are bugged they only increases range while lvling it up
    .....

    I believe this is like it has to be. Example first one said:

    The damage is equal to 8% of the caster's Soulforce.

    And caster's Soulforce goes higher ever you level up or make some equipment refine. So no need increase it by skil levels. It increases by your lvl progress.

    Ever since the update when I'm running around on my mount it vanishes every once in a while. Mainly when I jump or am in a crowded area. Not sure if it's just me or other people have noticed this issue as well.

    I have exactly same bug .
    My mount is an Chieftain Battlecat and it's freaking annoying when riding to see it suddenly disappear for 2-3sec.

    Can a GM pls reply if some1 is looking into this issue and the issue has been acknowledge ?

    Thank you

    1st - Why make 10 lvl for the skill then if it become better only with soulforce?

    2nd- Why put some attribut of the skill in blue if they won t even change?

    3rd- to conclude i sincerly think those skills are bugged and i won t lvl them for the fun of waisting more mp, spirit and money

    plz fix the skills b:shocked. thx and happy new year to everyone

    Scarlet Gate seems to be bugged. Went to the platform west of Dribbling Spring, got the popup, but no quest to return to 1000 Streams elder, and he doesn't have anything when I returned. Trashed and tried to repeat, don't even get the popup now.

    With the exception of venomancer and barbs, I have noticed that all female character class icons show as male on the map. For example, the red wing icon of a female cleric shows when clicking the cleric or when in a squad with one. If you are in a squad with one and you look at the map to see where your squad mates are, that icon will show as the blue/green of male. I have noticed this with all classes.

    maybe it has already been said in this thread but don't have the strenght to read everything :p.

    There is an issue with the lvl 59 spark burst for assassins :

    The skill should regen 10% mp while using it but it doesnt. The damage are effectively increased but no mp is regen.

    Before the expansion came out you were able to turn on and off a hp/mp/exp bar above your toons head. I had all 3 on before the patch. Once the new expansion came out I decided to turn them off for the rest of my pw life. But now there is no exp button to click anymore so now have a pink-ish exp bar over my head forever b:cryb:surrender

    I'd like to see the Hotkeys feature remember changes made.

    So I don't have to change shortcutbar B from V to Tab every time I log in.

    This happens for me too, not sure why... for about a week it worked fine then all of a sudden started to reset on every login. That started happening when I got the tab targeting bug reports in pvp.

    When clicking my character name on the start screen it loads up the world and during that time there is a tip on bottom of screen. The tip changes I know, but this one said "There are 3 rows of shortcut keys, use the tab key to cycle through them." The tab key is used to target mobs now and the new key to cycle the shortcuts is the 'v' key, so this tip is outdated.

    hi there, im new to posting so forgive me if i do anything wrong...
    my problem is this: i am faction leader of faction "speed" and when i open the faction screen by pressing "g" i cant see when people level up. i know for a fact that some have lvld, but on the screen they remain listed as at the level everyone was when i took the faction over. i have refreshed the page, and signed out and in, and even quit the program and re-entered, but still all the lvls remain the same as before. i have also spoken to other fac leaders to make sure im not just being dum but they have no ideas, so i can only assume its a glitch.
    just to confuse things, when i lvl up it shows up once i have re-logged. only me and no one else.
    many thanks
