[BUG] Sudden Increase in Animation Speed

Anyone else getting this?

I put the weapon away and walk normally. I draw the weapon and return to Keystone Cops mode. It's amusing in a way that looks like it was faked to be like that.

I posted a bug report on it a couple of weeks back but it went away....then it recently returned.

Alas, I cannot reproduce it. Thus I'm hoping someone else has discerned a pattern to it as that's the only way it's going to get fixed.

Well, when you take shorter steps, you tend to have to take them faster to continue moving the same speed.

I used to get this all the time, most recently before 1.6. It would happen after I first started running after arriving at a wayshrine or leaving a crafting station or after checking a container. Stopping for second before running again would clear it.

Taking shorter steps Not quite sure what you mean....or how one would do that, but it's a theory

Well, as you can see, stopping does not fix it. Putting the weapon away does and she runs normally. Taking the weapon out brings it back when the glitch is active.

It doesn't happen often. At first I thought it was triggered by the bow passive that kicks you into fast motion for two seconds after a dodge/roll but I tested that and it does not bring it on.

Just one of those odd bugs I guess. Unlike some, it does not impair her ability to fight. Thus it's more a make-you-giggle bug than a make-you-smash-something one.

It happens on my NB using DW and Bow. No idea if the weapon used is relevant, but I noticed in your video that you're using bow as well. It seems to happen after I loot something, usually a dead body. It's not consistent, though, so I can't reproduce it at will. Also, I've noticed swapping weapons fixes it for me.

I will say, I've NEVER gotten it on my 2H DPS (DK) or tank/healer (Templar), neither of whom use DW or bow. Again, no idea if the weapon is the common denominator.

That gal's a Templar. Thus the only common element is the weapon.

And she has The Ritual as her mundus stone, not The Steed. So it can't be that....oy vey....goodness knows

Interesting. I've used The Tower, The Shadow, The Thief, and The Warrior Mundus stones, but never The Steed or The Ritual.

I also noticed once that when Evil Hunter was active on my bow, and I swapped to DW, the glow from the skill still showed up on my back in the shape of a bow. Unfortunately, I didn't take a screenshot of it, and I'm at work so I don't know if it's a reproducible thing. But I digress (don't wanna hijack the thread with a different issue entirely )

To be honest, I wouldn't mind the speed-up if it didn't look so weird...

The Ritual is an odd choice that's supposed to increase the effectiveness of your healing. Not sure how effective it is or whether The Mage or Apprentice would be better (if spell penetration meant better healing the way spell critical is).

Yes, the Evil Hunter weapon swapping grapics bug is of long standing, alas.

And I agree with your last point....I wouldn't mind if it didn't make me laugh

I got this for the first time a few days ago and was kinda bummed when it fixed itself, it was hilarious XD.

For the record it was when I was using a Bow as well, iirc.

I have this issue since orsinium dlc, but for me the short steps walking appears only when my weapons are "not" drawn. Very annoying:

I too get this sometimes.I wind up hitting my run key and rolling to get it to stop when it does.

Thought oohh when I saw the keystone mode.. then noticed it was a Templar and went aaahhh.
