The Softlock

xKyrio

Just checking if this is just me, a few times now since 1.3 i think, ive been getting these softlocks.
Ive noticed that it only happends if i get stunned during a casting animations, for example i start casting CF and before its done i get stunned or knockbacked by an enemy. When this happends my character is softlocked in place and cant move, i can still cast spell and move by blink, but wsad does nothing.
The game still runs and everything, only problem is i cant move, its only solved by relogging. Kinda annoying when in group dungeons and this happends...


Anyone else had this problem? Or is it just me?

I get this now and then, mostly in Cyro. Its been happening to me alot longer than 1.3. Probably since release if I had to guess.

I'v been getting items that are suppose to be interactive (i.e. doors, chests, quest items) that are not selectable. They require a ui reload or a relog. If you problem is persistent I'd put it in the tech support forums after searching for a fix.

There has been some lag or disconnect introduced in the last patch. Some got introduced in the prior patch, but that seemed to be mostly fixed after a few days.

What I do is wait it out. After about 30 seconds, the game will respond again. Better than logging out then in again which is not something you can do in every dungeon instance.

Had this happen several times. Crystal Frag seems to be a popular one. Wrecking Blow also.

I get the opposite. I think it has to do with a leftover issue from the NB skill lockout.

I'll be able to move, but my skill bar becomes inactive. I can use potions, crouch, sprint, and change weapons, but # keys don't work.

Also, since 1.3.3 went live there appears to be no prevention from being stunned. All stunning attacks always stun me 100%. Before 1.3.3 only maybe 3-5% of stun attacks would take. Now, it's ALL THE TIME. So the loss of skills is now an issue again for me.

Well good to see im not the only one, that means its nothing on my end atleast.

Hope they find a solution for this, guessing theres already some tickets regarding this?
