<p>I get this bug occasionally, and more often than anyone I know, where when I click on an ability, it doesn't use the ability, and, instead, it posts the name of the ability into the chat window. For example, I'll click, say, Sniper Shot, and it won't use sniper shot. Instead, [Sniper Shot] will appear in my chat window every time I click it. I can't fix this unless I camp to desktop and then come back in. If there's any advice on how to prevent or fix this, I'd really appreciate it.</p>
