Game Mechanics: Combine bugs and text bug

[Jorgam]

Hey, I think there is an issue with combining.

The forges in Halas are not working right I don't think. When I try and combine 2 small pieces of ore in it, it says you can't combine them in this container. I've tried putting a water in with it, I've looked up recipes to make sure it actually should make metal bits. It isn't working.

Also I have a bag for Goblin Ice Necklaces from a quest in Halas. I try and combine it when full as the quest says to do and it tells me again, you can't combine these items in this container.

One last thing is that the text displayed down low towards the chat bar, doesn't show as full height unless you bump it up some. Seems to be squashed.

Thanks,

Coldstep

I am having the same problem with tailoring, I keep getting the "cannot combine in this container type" message when trying to make patchwork armor/silk threads. This is happening with the portable containers as well as the looms in cities.

[Langrisser]

jewel crafters are reportin this as well

Same for fletching. I'm trying to make arrows and getting the "you cannot combine these items in this container type" message.

Recipe I'm using:
Bundled Bone Arrow Shafts
Field Point Arrowheads
Small Groove Nocks
Several Parabolic Cut Fletchings


EDIT: I was trying to do this combine in Kelethin by the way (like August said below not working in cities). Just trying to give as much info as I can.

JC Here - doesn't work in FP either (I think last time they still worked in cities?)

It's for all combines. Pretty sure there was a combine issue that had to be resolved not too long ago.

I'm trying to combine Scaled Curskins and it does'nt work as well. Anyone knows when we will be able to combine stuff again?

Yep same thing here, my batwings and frosting just aren't the same separately~

Just finally got around to getting all of the stuff for the needlessly difficult Shaman Cudgel No. 2, and I've found to my disappointment, I cannot combine the Mandible, Jawless Skull, and Mendglow Clay.

Fix would be awesome, and while you're at it, please give the Iksar Shamans some sort of way to level alchemy, like throw a vendor in FoB or something which are the equivalent of the Grobb / Halas alchemy vendors. Been itching to level Alchemy up and I cannot due to my race.
