Why is my Orc stuck in the sprint animation?

as the title say...

I did a test by creating a new Orc and it runs normally.

Do I need to put in a ticket or is this normal?

    Finally figured it out - Mundus stone: the Steed... alters run animation!

    The real sprint animation or the one you get when using the Jailbreaker set or other speed boosts?

    Check in the settings of the game -> controls-> autorun which action activates it, maybe you accidentally toggled it.

    EDIT: if you mean your are continuously running .

    Steed, jailbreaker, swift?

    Also, is there a stamina drain? Sometimes the game decides it's time to sprint regardless of the buttons being pressed.

    Not on auto-run, this is when I decide to run - not sprint - my Orc appears to be in the sprint animation. That is - not the normal run animation.

    I removed all skill points, all champion points and all gear, and yet it persists.

    Edit: for clarity.

    The only difference between normal running and sprinting is the speed at which my character moves.
    ie: if I only depress the w key (forward momentum) My Orc runs with the sprint (shift w) animation.

    Only other thing I can think of that alters the way your character behaves, is that you have a "Personality" toggled on. (i.e Thief, Assassin, Dutchess etc). Tough to get an idea of your problem without a moving picture.

    Do you have a video showing your character walking / running / sprinting?

    I am not using a personality, so that is not it.

    no idea on how to get a video of the game onto my pc let alone onto the forum.

    If your Orc is still stuck sprinting, you may want to try the following in order to get unstuck.
    • Try sprinting a second time.
    • Attempt a dodge roll.
    • Sheath or re-equip your weapons.
    • Drain your stamina to 0.
    • Have your character die.

    thank you for the advice, however;

    My orc is NOT stuck in sprint MODE.

    My orc has the sprint mode animation whether running or sprinting.

    If I use sprint, my orc just goes faster - the animation does not change as it does with my other characters.

    Apart from the animation - everything is working fine.

    It appears that the problem has resolved itself.
