When I try to move by pressing WASD while simultaneously holding down and clicking the left mouse button, it causes my character to move uncontrollably for 0.5–1 seconds. It's like I'm under a charm effect – my character moves involuntarily."It makes me feel like I'm sliding on ice or rune of uncanny adoration from arcanist.
I've reinstalled the game, replaced the mouse and keyboard, disabled all plugins, and reinstalled the drivers, but I still haven't identified the cause of this issue.
So I'd like to ask if anyone else has experienced a similar issue – if so, I'm asking for solutions plz :)

    Could be your mouse’s polling rate. If you have a desktop app that allows you to change settings of your mouse, look for the polling rate (not the same thing as acceleration or pointer speed) and change it to something like 250 HZ or less.
    See if that helps.

    I have this same issue when I play ESO on my Windows gaming laptop, especially when I'm using Steam to play ESO remotely on my laptop but controlling it from my desktop PC. I'll have to look into the mouse settings to see if I can resolve it that way. Thank you for the tip!
