You Can't Do That While In Combat

N00BxV1

Can we please get some things changed so that I CAN do these things while in combat? It's so frustrating not being able to do the simplest of things because I'm stuck in combat, or more likely the game thinks I'm in combat. Things like:

- Harvesting nodes
- Unlocking chests
- Using doors
- Mounting
- Other basic interactions

And this isn't a 'while in combat' issue, but can I please Mount while in stealth? Just un-stealth me and mount already...

You forget one thing: Charge weapon with poison. I hate that if you loose all your poisons and you can't charge weapon with another poison.

So yes. I want change this thing. We have that Warden bug too. Wardens are sometimes in combat without reason.

Nodes and chests make sense and would reduce the chance to steal resources, but the doors and mounting make sense to be unable to be used during combat

Would love to harvest nodes while in combat, but it doesn't make sense right?

I mean a big guy is swinging a sword at me and I'm picking flowers??

It usually plays out the other way though. You trying to grab a resource stuck in combat and someone runs up and grabs it while your bugged out.

Maybe they could allow it, but you would be one-shot killed if you actually got hit while harvesting a node, etc. So if you turn your back to an enemy to mine some ore, you get one-shot.

Get one-shot by trash mobs? What game are you playing. lol

During keep defense. You are not engaged at all but cannot swap in skills because you are 'in combat'
Mounting still has it issues with end of combat too
Really annoying.

There is "in combat" and there is "in combat".

"In combat" happens when you are actually getting hit.

"In combat", however, is when you are not even close to any enemies or they all died 3 minutes ago.

...that would actually be a most reasonable suggestion.
But pretty unreasonable to actually happen, which is why the character saying "nope, I won't do that when I still think there may be some enemy just waiting to drive their rusty dagger into my back the moment I turn it to open that door / pick that flower / climb that horse / get out my lockpicks!" may be the better option.

What I myself would love to see is some skill that -ends- combat status for your character only (ninja smoke bomb? Waving white flag? Whatever...).
So you can use it if you for some reason remain stuck in combat. After all, if there actually are still enemies around, combat status will simply resume as soon as they hit you again. And if not... you can pick those flowers, open that door, pick that lock, mount that horse...

Even freaking mailbox can't be opened in combat which is a bit unclear to me why. You can view achievements, skills, quests in combat but no mailbox?
