  • Describe the issue you are experiencing: Quest: Just Dessert, if you’re doing before the faction quest to plunder 5 chests at the quest location and then get the quest “Just Dessert”, you are not able to loot chests “again”. Usually (like faction quests) if you plunder them before timer cooldown (1 hours) you can loot chests again, but only for quest items.

  • Describe the issue you are experiencing: High input latency, FPS drops and desync

I’ve already commented on this issue in a previous thread where there haven’t been any responses from NW support or devs: Massive lag/framerate drop since december 6th patch

As mentioned, by me and several other forum posts and people by now, in that post, these performance issues became consistent and more noticeable after the winter convergence patch. I’ve performed all the basic troubleshooting suggestions that get mentioned by NW support staff on these forums – verifying Steam files (I’ve reinstalled the entire game TWICE), now of my drivers needed any updates since all of them were up to date during and before the patch itself, I only use a wired mouse and wired keyboard, not having any other apps open while playing the game, etc.
