Guild Wars 2

Like some others, total skill lock. Couldn’t do anything but run around and take damage. Seems like this happened after this last patch

I’ve also had this happen no cure but to relog

It may be Lag. Try clocking up your CPU for the next event.

This has happened to me before; it is definitely unrelated to skill lag (happened before in the middle of the night when hardly anyone was online in WvW). The only thing that I’ve ever done to fix it (other than logging out/changing maps) is to pick up supply in WvW. But you can’t do that in PvE, so the only way I know of to fix it there is to relog.

I had this too. I only got out of it when I ran purposely into an enemy static field. It somehow reset me.

If you try to pickup an object and it disappears in between the time your character begins to pick it up and when you actually grab it, like when multiple people try to pick something up at the same time, your character can get stuck where all skills will fail to activate except for those with 0s casts. All you have to do is pickup another item or interact with something like a gathering node.

Happened to me as well, not lag related.
Had to relog and of course was then put in overflow where event was not happening.

I have had this happen and the main way to fix this is to get knocked down or get downed and revive. this bug happens when you pick up something like the repair wrench and drop it like you would do a kit item.

The old weapon swap bug is in play too. If in combat when teleporting to Marienette and the brief cutscene, I can’t switch weapon without going through the Hero panel equipment screen and clicking the swap button there once. Maybe it’s related to the skills not working, try not to be in combat when porting.

It’s not lag, it’s a bug. It’s been around for a while~ I tried all kinds of things to fix it; tonics, bundles, swapping weapons from menu, re-equiping things, dying, picking up stuff and so on. Only relogging seems to fix it.

From the last time it happened to me I believe it was caused by accidentally picking up someone’s banner when I was trying to loot while either someone else picked it up at the same time, or it despawned. I think I sent a bug report, don’t remember.

This has now happened twice out of four marionette events, others in the last event were complaining of the same problem. Fixed itself on death.
