    Cannot allocate merit points, happening to anybody else?

    I'm just curious if anybody is having any weird issues when trying to allocate merit points. I'm currently stuck on 9999/10000 limit points and 10/10 merit points.

    I went to use the 6 points I had at the time before a merit party yesterday, I go to the one I want, select raise, select yes, and then nothing happened. The category in question didn't go up, and my points didn't go down.

    Thinking it might be whitegate lag, I teleported to home nation and tried using the moghouse there, again, same problem. I changed jobs, tried different categories, /logout, /shutdown, different computer, switching between merits/exp. Nothing.

    I sent a GM call, and got a message overnight saying they were sorry I was stuck and or having connection problems. Not exactly helpful.

    This is very annoying as most my 75s are capped, and ones that aren't are very near capped, so I can't really xp at all.

    Any ideas anybody?

    Might be a long shot, but maybe one of your "deadzones" is merit allocation. >_> Try renewing your IP?

    I've used alot of merit points before, I kind of know how it works. It can't be just lag, for two days, in any moghouse.

    Make sure you upgrading the correct category.

    For example, trying to level Sword Merits when your White Mage wont work, you would need to switch to BLU or PLD or something.

    Probably figured that out for yourself, but just incase...Happened to me a couple of times

    If you're in a category that's maxed, or unavailable to you the options are all grayed out, you don't have the option to raise.

    This is not an error between chair and keyboard issue, I promise. I may run into work and try from a computer there, since the different IP address I guess is worth trying.

    Can you raise anything at all? Or is it just that one category?

    any category. changed jobs around and tried all the job specific ones, same thing happens for all jobs. All of general but "other" are capped, so I tried raising spell interruption rate and was a no go.

    I'm almost tempted to try lowering something just to see what happens.

    Submit a bug report. If you're so hyped to EXP, go kill yourself maybe 10 times and HP, then you'll have a few hours of EXPing to do.

    A member in my LS had the same problem yesterday and fixed it by changing the .dat for the UI.
