Guild Wars 2

I would write this in the bug forum but it probably has about 1000 threads and it’s still not fixed.

Title says it all. Needs fix.

steps to reproduce?

Since you don’t give any details such as time, server, IP, character, map, what you were doing, surounding events, etc… It’s useless as a bug report.

Don’t expect a fix based on worthless information such as “immobilized in midair”

I get this bug quite often on my guardian because I like to jump around and also use GS skill 3 often.

What is especially annoying about it is that when you’re in mid-air, you can’t use skills. Some immobilisation is pretty long, so it’s fairly frustrating.

I know this is all just anecdotal evidence on my part, but I can certainly vouch that this happens.

EDIT: Just want to clarify that the immobilisation I’ve experienced only occurs when hit with an immobilising skill. Usually you’ll be pulled straight onto the ground if you’re in mid-air, but sometimes you’ll be barely floating (and vibrating, for lack of a better term). Most commonly I’ve found that this happens when the terrain isn’t flat- trees, rocks etc are most commonly the cause.

It does happen but that bug is not easy to replicate.

The only way I can reproduce it all is falling and quickly wp. Even that is not a complete guarantee.

I honestly can’t think of a single time where I experienced something like this. Huh.

ye it sucks. i was on skyhammer the other day trying to get away from some people, jumped unable to use anything so waited for respawn.

There’s actually 2 bugs.

The first bug occurs when you are jumping/leaping/falling and you acquire the Immobilized condition before you hit the ground. In this case, you cannot use any skills whatsoever to get out of it, you remain there as a sitting duck, and have to wait for Immobilized to end(specially annoying when people keep stacking more Immobilized). This occurs because you cannot use any skills or drop bundles while in midair. This is very annoying, specially in PvP/WvW. Another issue is getting Immobilized in WvW/PvE while on water surface. You have no skills while swimming, you cannot remove the Immobilized, you are a soon to be dead duck at the surface of the pond(passive condition removal such as Signet of Resolve still tick while on water surface).

The second bug occurs when you waypoint and the game sends you to the waypoint at the incorrect height. This happens specially often when using a Waypoint that is on land while you are currently under water. You remain stuck in midair with no weapon skills(since the game detects you are no longer under water). This can also happen when you use a waypoint while falling from very high(happens often in EotM, where you try to waypoint to avoid death if you fell through a hole). You can get out of this one by using a leap/shadowstep/movement skill.

Very easy to replicate: dodge+jump while in PvP and have someone put an immobilize on you. It happens to be every other match it seems.

Then you really havn’t played alot,the bug has been going on since i can remember tbh.
It can happen when you jump or leap and when in mid air you get immobi applied on you..Making your character Compltely uncontrollable,cant use skills,cant use utils,your char is stuck doing this jumping up and down animation.

I’ve played consistently since beta. The only time I remember something like this was back when it was more common for people to get stuck while waypointing to an area with a lot of people. I’ve never had it happen while I was in combat, even when I have been immobilized while jumping/leaping.

I used death blossom a lot if I got immobilized on mid air. I am totally screwed. please fix it. This bug happen right around Point of No return patch.
