Did you try closing and opening the compass window and changing zoom (range) on it?

I have noticed that the hp on mobs is displayed slightly differently, it seems some fundamental changes have been done. In this case the hp bar starts at zero then suddently pops up to what it should be. I am thinking maybe lost packets and slow data like the bug where you dont get the right info on an item first time.

I've had this hp problem for a while, may be down to my slow connection (supposedly upgraded from Tiscali 150kbps to 250).

Anyone had this sort of compass problem?

The compass pointer (the little triangle showing directions) suddenly disappears. I can play hours, and then suddenly this problem strikes. It's very difficult to harvest for example, without the compass pointer. Last time I noticed it happened after respawn.

I have tried all the usual tricks to get the pointer appear back: changed targets to team mates, landmarks and north, zoomed in and out, moved the compass window, opened and closed the compass window. None have helped. Only way to get it back is quit and start the game again.

It doesn't sound like a graphics driver problem, since it usually works just fine for hours, and seems to appear after something happens, like a respawn. That sounds more like a game bug. But if no-one elsehas it, then it must be my computer's problem.

I've played 2 weeks now, and it has happened me 4times, twice with both characters.
