Minor XP Bar Bug

Hi, this bug was annoying and finally figured out the exact steps to reproduce it so that the devs can squash it.

Description:
It is possible to cause the XP Bar Tool Tip to appear whenever the mouse button is left clicked while for an attack.

Steps to Replicate:
- Go to the end of an area instance say 'Upper Submerged Passage'
- Click on the exit to the next instance, say 'Ledge'
- Now quickly before the loading screen appears hover your mouse pointer over the XP bar
- Keep it there until the loading screen appears
- Now quickly move the mouse cursor away from where the xp bar is during the loading screen

When you enter the new area you'll see the XP Tool Tip is already bugged on the bar. If you then go and attack monsters the XP Tool Tip will start appearing whereever you click.

Note, the player just has to move the mouse cursor back over the XP bar again to get rid of the problem.

I am guessing that some mouse move event is not firing when the loading screen appears.

Regards, squash that bug :)

Bumping for visibility.

Just wanted to add that the same bug seems to apply to any tooltip, e.g. if you hover over one of your skills in the skillbar it will also bug.

I'm using this bug sometimes on purpose lol, love to see my exp bar fill up when I'm leveling some new chars =D

LOL, it's quite funny how bugs are sometimes seen as features by the users.

Though it begs the question if having a running xp number would be better than the xp bar, and should it be made into an enhancement toggle.
