Problem:

This is I'm sure observed by many. I was using temporary items while fighting for experience points vs spectators in abyssea - ule.

I was using a couple temporary items that were just distributed to alliance from a blue pyxides. As expected, the new items were at the bottom of the list. I used a Stalwart tonic, then started to use the dusty elixer.

While waiting for the animation to complete (and bar to fill) for using the stalwart tonic, I had already started the dusty elixer and it was at the small blue sub target arrow. I told it to proceed after the previous animation completed.


HOWEVER! when the next item was used, it was not the dusty elixer. It was my PRIMEVAL BREW. The list, AND MY ALREADY queued item had shifted by 1.

The same troublesome bug can occur with the treasure pool as well. if you are trying to lot or pass an item while other items are moving out of the treasure pool, the list will shift up, and the wrong item will be lotted or passed.

I suppose I was only motivated enough to write up this bug becasue I LOST a primeval brew.... /cry
