The Shield of Legend fragments can not be dragged into the shield frame and stay in the inventory and thus occupy extra space.

I didn't (and won't) try with the Tome of Untold Legends pages but probably they should be the same.

Yep. I wrote the shield fragments specifically because the frame does not have a gather button. At least to prevent people ending up with filled up inventory space.

They are amazing at frustrating their clients.

It takes a special talent to be able to continually cock up this much and still have clients.
It speaks volumes wrt the loyalty to the IP.

They should announce that litany and abbot are going to be closed until a hotfix, would reduce the amount of support tickets asking for help to get the sigil or quest advanced by a GM.
Not sure why Turbine didn't think about that genius plan already.

Aside from all that, we STILL have to log in twice.

Last login = weeks before update.  Sounds like I am better off.

Yeah they only managed to slightly break litany flagging with the 'bag bug'. They need another try to really mess it up.

If you can afford the SSD, it is a much better soln.

The prices have come down significantly and the sizes are increasing.
You can go with a 128gb model and put your operating system and key program's on it for a nice speed boost.
Just store your data (like your poRn collection) on a normal HDD which are dirt cheap now.

I sometimes wonder if I'm the only person that has log in issues on an SSD

I've not heard of it on an SSD.
Just means your problem is not related to fragmentation and HDD thrashing.  Could still be a flaky SSD too.  Is it an old or new SSD.  Does it support TRIM command?  Might need a cleanup.

Also opens up the possibility to router issues on your local network (if you run one), to connection issues (packet loss) to potential internet routing issues (not much you can do about that).  You could try to isolate the cause (if it is just one) thru testing.
Have you tried to narrow it down?
Is the 2nd login only required after a reboot/cold start?
If you leave your PC on and go back several hours later to login, does it still require a 2nd logon.
If not, you could still have a caching issue - do you have caching enabled?

How much RAM are you running?
Do you have a page file active for RAM overflow?  (Suggest you put it on your HDD, not the SSD).

Lastly, I would check your vid card drivers.  Depends on when the first login craps out, but if it is during a transition, it might be a vid card driver issue that your OS error traps and repairs for the 2nd login.

Just a couple of ideas from problems I have seen over the years.

If you're running Windows, I'm pretty sure it uses the swap file for laughs no matter how much RAM you throw at it...

Why swapfile not on SSD, DropBear? Wear?

Yeah that's what I figured and also keep mine on the SSD. Curious if it was jsut wear worries or something else.
