Drencrom replied to the thread eqgame.exe - Entry Point Not Found.

Drencrom replied to the thread Video card check for dx 11 Fatal Error.
That's definitely not a real fix for anything. Maybe your own video card has a bad HDMI port. If it was me, I'd swap video cards...

Drencrom replied to the thread Missions for Jann's Viel, how difficult?.
True. Always remember to block the "promised" line so they're forced to actually heal.

Drencrom replied to the thread Missions for Jann's Viel, how difficult?.

Drencrom replied to the thread Confirmed Inventory Screen Off-Kilter with Mouse.
No 3rd party programs. It turned out to be (gasp) the new UI. Turning the scale back down to 1.0 fixed it, for now. But scaling was...

Drencrom replied to the thread Forcing Merc to be Suspended?!.
Instead of Lorian Inn try Pal Lomen. Killing relatively easy stuff like "a fox" will give almost double the exp of a LI mob.

Drencrom replied to the thread Fixed Mobs flagged Oddly.
Gorillas in LI are considered animals and cannot be headshot. They're clearly humanoids with very obvious heads!

Drencrom replied to the thread Macro issues since last patch.

Drencrom replied to the thread Zek Mourns the Loss of a Legend (Armourcarr).
