Shade polymorph induced lag

Hi All,

I've noticed that when entering a delve / outlaw refuge with a character using the Shade polymorph then once the delve / outlaw refuge loads up, my character is stuck for a second or two and won't move. This does not happen if I remove the polymorph or use a different polymorph and I experience it when using controller as well as keyboard and mouse. Is anyone else experiencing this when using the Shade polymorph or is it just me ?

    posted about this before when it first came out.

    if youre wearing it, you get a delay every time you travel or enter anything

    Thanks. At least I can stop trying to work out if something has gone wrong on my side.

    this happens with all polymorphs, not just the shade one

    not sure if its lag, or if its doing some kind of weird processing (because normally your frozen for a second while the polymorph is turned on, and i think it might be like "turning it on" when you re-zone somewhere)

    Greetings,

    This thread has been moved to the Bug Reports section, as it is better suited there.

    Thank you for your understanding.

    I've personally found this to only happen with the Shade polymorph and no other polymorph.

    i have 9 of my 10 character using polymorphs and have noticed this issue for at least a year+, well before the shade event existed

    i just never found it to be much of an issue, but a minor annoyance
