Observed a few odd things

Hi guys,
Kinda new here. I've noticed a couple of odd things at least with my character (BO). I'd appreciate any clarification.
1. Combat bug. I get a frequent "You cannot join a scenario while in combat!" and the "Yes, I'm ready now" button is greyed out. Noticed that it always happen when leaving the SC joining RvR Batllefield Objective and going back to SC. But sometimes it just happens after a few log ins onto SC on it's own.
2. I've got a persisting bug in my Character loading screen where Cloak and Shouldaplates are visually missing, when you log into game they're there but not in the character screen. The rest of the gear is fine, only those two missing.
3. Dyes. Can you actually use dyes dropped by mobs? I've tried to use them. Got 3 but don't seem to work. At merchants dying works fine. Just those ones in my inventory seem to be useless.
Thanks a lot in advance for all the answers.
p.s. Good to be back in Warhammer, it's been a while...

Great job guys!

Having some of the same bugs. I've had my shoulderpads for days now, and I have yet to see them on the loginscreen
But you should probably report them in the Bugtracker, and not here, though
https://github.com/WarEmu/WarBugs/issues?q=is%3Aopen
And remember to make one new bug report PER bug

Thanks, I know about the bug tracker. Just wanted to share it and learn if there are others who experienced the same thing and found a "remedy", that's all.

Hey,
1) You have to re-launch the game (don't just log out), it'll be fixed then (until it happens again

)
2) Don't think there's a fix for this atm, happens on one of mine as well though.
3) Only vendor dyes work atm afaik.

Hi,
Yeah,
1. The re-log simply isn't enough with the "combat bug", noticed it's the whole game needs re-launching.
2. Not that it bothers me a lot but it's kinda weird.
3. Got ya. Thought it was me doing something wrong.
Thanks.

The stuck in combat bug was an issue way back in the old days of War as well. I was a founder and remember it happening the whole time i played from pre-launch all the way till the servers shut down....

I was not aware so many people don't know about the .unlock command.
Typing /say .unlock should remove you from combat. It's a workaround to a bug we were never able to find the source of.
Other dyes should work just fine. If they're not, it's a bug tracker item.

Dyes work, but similar to talis I think you have to have the item unequipped. Not positive on that though.
Try changing appearnace on your items, or ticking the "show item" button on your character screen. My WH wasn't showing his helm on login, but that fixed it.
And remember, you need to be in /say channel for the .unlock to work. I think it works in advice as well, but I know it sometimes doesn't in other channels. So get in the habit of /s .unlock
remember, it's DOTunlock and SLASHsay

probably not using the dye correctly, you have to rightclick them until a sort of topped over dye bottle appears,than click left on the item you want to dye...soem items cant be dyed though

A stickied "frequently asked questions in the /advice channel" thread might help with things like this. Combat bug, stuck in motion, rank 26 mounts, craft/gather skill training/respec, renown abilities disappearing and so on.
