This happens to me several times a day and all I can do is die, or log off and back on again to fix this. I have tried all the key combos everyone says to use, but this never works. This issue happens on all three of my V16 players. My NB it happens when I use Caltrops and then go into a fight. That seems to be the common trigger. Not every time of course, but when it happens, that is the trigger. My two DK players I haven't clued in on what triggers it for them yet.
Are you not entertained?

    Happens on my Templar to a lesser extent. If I somehow survive the battle it sometimes fixes itself. Definitely sux dieing because you can't use any abilities

    where does this happen?
    "I still do not understand why I followed the advice of Captain Rana to bring the villagers of Bleakrock into safety. We should have fought for our village and not have backed down, with our tail between our legs. Now my home village is in shambles, the houses burning, the invaders feasting.I swear every day to Shor that after Molag Bal has been defeated, I will hunt down the invaders and restore peace in Bleakrock and drink my mead with my friends at the market place".PC-EU

    It happens anywhere I am fighting. It sucks when you are in IC and have 500+ stones on you and all you can do is let the other players kill u and take your stones without a fight...

    Happens on my temp a lot. Skill bar shows no skills can be used. Have to hit SHIFT key to re-set it. If you see it immediately can be fixed fast, but if you are spamming keys and nothing happens then you look at skill bar, you are often dead before you can get back on track. I have three other classes at VR16 and it only happens on the temp, so I know it is not me mis-hitting something.

    Frozen ability bar, not always.

    Unable to swap weapons, yes, and it happens VERY often, and has to be the most frustrating bug there is currently. It's completely random and fixes itself after sometimes 2, 3, 5 or even 15 seconds. Needless to say that not being able to swap weapons for 15 seconds means you're usually dead.

    Using shift, dodge roll, looking at inventory, spinning your char in crown store... Nothing seems to fix it.

    for me, it isn't just weapon swap... it is the fact I cant use any ability at all either. at least if my abilities where active on the one weapon, I might have some chance....

    Only happens to me on my templar.

    Can't swap, cast and it's stick in sprint.

    Takes about 30 seconds then goes.

    Ridiculous this exists

    I've had this on my templar in PvE, usually when I use toppling charge.

    Happened to me a few times. I found that if I open inventory and close it again, it often fixes the issue... if not, yeah, it really sucks, since its kinda hard to survive a fight if you can't do sh... uhm... anything. ;)
