Just recently I started getting this problem with dedicated noxious potions from the cure icon. All 3 other pots worked fine. The problem just appeared suddenly; I have no idea why it started. Relogging didn't fix the issue.

I noticed in the file 'UI.log' in /Sony/EverquestII/ there where error references to a file 'map_links.xml' on about line 630 is this text:

Tooltip="Nektulos Forest (ID:23506:Zone in & out of Nektulos Forest)"

I opened this file in DevStudio and it compiled with an error; complaining about the ampersand &. What I did was replace the '&' with 'and' and it fixed the compile error. When I logged back in, this issue went away and I could fire off my nox pots.

But I was still getting the same warning message in chat saying 'You may only use items in your inventory'. And the UI.log file was complaining about not finding a resource in file 'eq2ui_examine_.xml'. Now, this file doesn't exist in the profit UI directory, but 'eq2ui_examine.xml' does. I tried renaming this file with an underscore but the messages were still there and the UI.log file had entries in it:

Couldn't load .xml
Encountered data outside of container tags

...

Renaming the file didn't seem to break anything but I'll rename it back to original.

Anyway I stopped looking at this, since I can use nox pots, I'm good. But something definitely fishy with these files; the dev should investigate and fix.
