    Yes, CUO.  They are updating it when players tell them about issues, they do not take time away from the Devs.  Very few crashes.
    Can you (or anyone else) remind me how to make action bars for me to put my spellbooks/runebooks in again please. Computer fubarred a while back and i lost all that.

    I think you're looking for two things here.

    First, you can create Counter Bars which you can then drop your runebooks in to hang around on your screen and open easily without having to look around your bag:




    To create macros which equip spell books or weapons in your hand/dress your character in the right suit:

    Part 1: go to your Agents tab and with that Plus icon, create a new Dress slot with the right name ("Demon"), equip your Demon Slayer, click Read Equipped Item. Do this for as many dress/arm macros as you want. Of note, make sure "Use Quick Dress" is checked on all of these so it auto-dresses/arms everything at once and not individually for each piece.



    Part 2: 
    Go to Game Options->Experimental and make sure "Action Bar" is enabled.


    Part 3:
    Go to Hot Keys-> Dress and hit "Display" under the action bar column for all the dress/arm macros we just made.



    By default they come in like this:


    But if you right click them individually you can "Set Icon." I like to change them to a picture which matches the slayer I'm interested in, so I can select that really fast.



    They can, of course, also be bound to traditional keys:



    I think if done right it works great!

    Cuo is totally independent and different than the two clients having issues no point  discussing it here
    except that it means it's a client issue and that could help them figure out the issue?
    I understand your point but just because a motorcycle has wheels doesn't mean we should use it to diagnosis our car problems 
    We will have to agree to disagree on this one. and if you're diagnosing a brand of wheels using a motorcycle wheel to compare to a car wheel would be relevant.

    Thank you, I got it figured out, I made Macros to "Use object" and target the runebook. did that for each one. then did the same for my spellbook. The icons are a bit tricky to navigate though. I found a spellbook but have yet to find the Runebooks. I picked an odd looking book and went with those. Put them to action bar an Bam! works like a champ.

    I've noticed more crashes since the rifted crown event started... I kind of chalked it up to Mistas because that seems to be where it happens the most (also is where I spend 90% of my time). Also chalked it up to playing on ATL lol.

    Is this correct?

    June 17, 2025 -> pub 120 event went live World Wide.
    June 21, 2025 -> crashes and hangs in pub 120 event were reported here (link).
    Sep 1, 2025 -> pub 120 event concludes.

    For pub120, that leaves a couple days to fix the issue before the event concludes.  For the EM and other events where this is still an issue, I guess there's a bit more timing flexibility?

    I decided to use some CC today.

    I put a guy on and left him at the bank.  He stayed from10am till 4:30 and I logged him off.

    Then I was decorating with CC.  1 crash to desktop.  On Atl now checking status of spawn.
    guy standing near the gate.  Spawn is not on, he crashed.

    Multiple crashes reported from players at the spawn on LS earlier.
    Focus on what you can do, not what you can't.

    Yes that sounds correct. Yesterday was by for the worst I've experienced for the entire publish though; crashing almost a dozen times within 90min. It was unplayable. I hopped in today to get likely my last champion in for the event and had no problems until about 20min ago when I was in Luna and my client crashed.

    **Update** Since posting this about 10min ago, I've crashed 3 times (all in Luna / Atlantic / CC) just sitting there not doing anything (just checking out the forums).

    Happens to me a lot since last update. Sometime takes me 3 times to login, the client just disappears. Then after about 5 min after loging in. Then about every hour. I will log in sit in Luna, come back in 30 min and the client is just gone.

    I noticed it happens after sitting still for 10-15 with no input. I tied a button down and doesnt happen. Its almost like it logs you off for in activity.

    To me it has happened either way... whether standing still with no input or whether being in the frenzy of the Event, fighting Commanders and the Boss and running all over the place so, it does not look to me that it might be related to input at all...

    Just because a person has eyeballs it does not mean they can see.  

    Why not just fix the two clients? It is a quality of life issue.  Without a stable client, there is no gameplay.

    Same, and it doesn't seem event related. These crashes and disconnects weren't only happening in Mistas during the invasions.

    I crashed today and it has nothing to do with the previous event. It started with the patch last week. This crashing shouldn’t be confused with the lost connection issue that started last December with a patch.

    The first post about crashing was June 20th.  CC and prob EC are still crashing today.

    I was just browsing the Global Vendor Search and I got yet another crash to desktop... on the Classic Client, this is.

    I am extremely excited for the NL event that started today but I am logging for the night because the game is 100% UNPLAYABLE!!! I'm running around Moonglow with only 1 client open (CC) and literally every time I get around the teleporters (where a ton of people are) my client crashes. I'm giving up after my 7th crash in 30min. Literally just running onto the screen and it crashes... this is in addition to the random crashing when I was doing the encounter earlier today (figured that was just the animations of the towns).

    I am beyond frustrated at this point and to be 100% honest if this isn't fixed soon I am not going to bother playing the event...

    CUO does not crash.  Why does it have a better connection? Needs investigating.

    I would be above angry if I crashed like that.

    I'm at Pantera in Austin in the park waiting for the Vikings to finish.   B)

    Yea I have to agree this is literally unplayable, I crashed well over 15 times with 1 character doing 1 loop of the nl event today. At one point I logged in and instantly crashed 5 times in a row.  This needs to be fixed / addressed ASAP.

    As stated in previous threads, the team is aware of the issue and is actively investigating.
