"Break free" move - how to use it?

Hi,

This "Break Free" feature is often mentioned on the Internet. Supposedly, it allows a player to escape all disabling effects except for Knockdown by spending stamina.

Was it removed from the game? If not, how do I use it?

Thanks!

    You click right and left mouse buttons at the same time in order to spend stamina to break free.

    I don't know whether it works for roots and things - but certainly works for stuns and most disabling effects.

    I'm pretty sure the break free move is also in the in-game guide/help thingy.

    Thanks, I'll try LMB+RMB.

    Didn't find this info in the in-game guide, but maybe I missed it.

    I rebound it to a single key and used my mouse buttons for something else.

    It's not a instant break free, most of the time you have to tap the key multiple times.

    Not sure if this is intended, but it worked on a knockback for me. I hit my LMB+RMB when I got knocked back and my character jumped back up as soon as he hit the ground (along with the temporary swirly CC-immunity graphic indicator around his feet).

    the break free button is the same as the interrupt button

    Dumb Q:
    It seems to only work like 1/2 the time, which makes me think I'm not doing it correctly.
    Is it:

    - "Click right and left mouse buttons at the same time"
    or
    - "Hold Right Mouse Button + then Click Left Mouse Button"

    The instruction "RMB+LMB" is unclear on this point.

    Find that holding RMB first then clicking LMB works better than trying to mash both at the same time or indeed for easier use keybind it to a key.
