2.0.7 - dismount first, THEN use skill

  • Before 2.0.7:
    I used to press a skill to dismount AND activate that skill immediately after (eg: Dark Cloak while being sniped)
  • After 2.0.7:
    I press a skill to dismount but the skill doesn't activate and just lets you dismount (same as using "dismount" button). To use the skill I have to wait for the dismount animation to end and press the button again.

Did you guys notice the same?

I'd like to know if it's intended and, if not, if the old mechanism will be reverted.

I predict Snipers will enjoy this 2.0.7...

    I noticed the weird dismount animation last night as well. I do not like it either.. it looks like I'm clumsily falling off my horse.. not dismounting properly.

    I absolutely hate this animation. I hope this was not intentional...

    The old adage fix one bug intro another. This was a 'slow downed' dismount action that I believe is mount to counter the 'mount hop' we had prior. When I first saw it I said ya that sooks, now you found the reason it sooks. I hadnt been hit yet but this is a problem if we are locked out for that 2 ish seconds.

    I really cannot grasp the reasoning behind this change, if it was intended

    Everyone report that this dismount bug is giving you extra XP like the fungal crabs and you would be less inclined to buy an XP pot from the clown store.

    Then it will be hotfixed immediately. Otherwise this will remain in the game for months without a fix.

    Ok, it wasn't intended and will be fixed.

    In the meantime, you can bypass the dismount animation by, irony of ironies, opening and closing the crown store menu. I setup a macro to open and close it - give it a try.

    Proof that the crown store provides actual tactical advantages!

    More than likely they tried to fix something and broke something else
