"in combat" bug?

Hi! So I started playing again, and I noticed that a lot of times when I'm done with combat the game still thinks, for several seconds (up to 1 min), that I'm in combat, which results in not be able to interact with objects. This is especially annoying when I'm in dungeon and I need to move through door, but game won't let (doesn't show "enter" title). I never had this problem before.
I play on PC, eu server!

    Can confirm that sometimes you just wont get out of combat.

    Oncew i Ran from BRK farm, to lumber and was still in Combat with the Farm Guards when I reached mine. (I didnt engage mine guards)

    It's pretty annoing in PVP when you just cannot mount up.

    The PvP version of this problem is different than the PvE dungeon version.

    In PvE dungeons, this is almost always caused by an enemy that has glitched into an inaccessible location. Like stuck inside a wall. They are in combat with you, but can't attack you, and you can't attack them (and often can't even see them). As a result, this isn't a single bug, but rather it's the result of a number of locations in various dungeons where the terrain, meshes, and collision need adjustment. Which is why there will never be an easy fix, since each likely-to-glitch location requires an adjustment of their own.

    Sorry for bumping this topic, but devs, plz fix this bug. Happened twice in dungeon runs, where we couldn't interact with an object and we couldn't continue until someone said to try /reloadui.

    One of the causes is the netch pet. Seems like sometimes the game thinks u killed a good-old-days-critter when it despawns.

    This is an even bigger problem on a warden. For some reason they take longer than other characters to go out of combat. As said above maybe it's due to the netch pet. I'm fairly new to warden however but it's noticeable right off the bat when everyone else in your group is long past the door in a dungeon and you're still on the other side waiting to get out of combat. Annoying when trying to do a speed-run.

    Do a Dodge Roll and it clears this condition. I think mashing the Escape Key to get back to a Menu a few times can do this too, but the Dodge Roll is more reliable.

    Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.

    This also happens when you kill a non-combative creature like rabbits and deer. The game believes you're still in combat for some reason and you can't mount or interact with things for a few seconds.

    Yeah for some reason killing bait and meat providing critters causes an extra long wait to get out of combat. Super annoying when farming mats.

    I too have noticed that this is a much bigger problem on a Warden than others, especially in pve. It's really common that my entire group goes through a door or portal, and I'm stuck behind for up to 2 min before I drop out of combat and can go through.

    Well that would explain a lot. I get this bug all the time, and I way more frequently than those I'm grouped with. Also why sometimes its there only to disappear before I'm actually through the door, even once the screen has gone black like I was actually loading

    Does recasting the Netch help at all? My friends jokingly call it my rotation. I get to a door and HA, Dodge Roll, Crouch, go into the menu, come back out and HA a few more times. Can I just add cast Netch to my rotation?

    @Nestor No, no it doesn't. See my post above this one
