Guild Wars 2

I am finding when playing my guardian that I am often getting routed on completion of skills when I am not actually immobilised. Is this a problem anyone else has noticed?

I will try to find out what skills are routing me and get back to you all, but just wanted to know if this is common.

I also get this problem quite often. I can still use all my skills but can’t move or dodge and the only thing that frees me is a movement skill like GS #3. Weapon swap also does nothing unlike those “stucked in recently built siege”-bugs. Never really tried to do an emote.

This bug just kills you when fighting multiple opponents…

Yep, and emotes work but having to type one in the middle of a fight isn’t ideal.

Maybe i should always type /me xyz before entering a combat so i just have to do Enter -> Enter or (if it happens more than once) Enter -> Up -> Enter. Not an ideal solution but might work.

Possible reason:
if you press some weapon skill+ swap weapon button at the same time, it may bug your skill animation, chaining it as well as rooting you in a place. You can’t do anything untill you use the same skill again.

It might happen in battle.

I sometimes chain some animation for the fun, and then I realize I am rooted and won’t move.

Hmm, but outside of battles i’m often using GS #3 when traveling and swap weapons mid-air thus canceling the jump to land exactly where i want to be. It has never rooted me.

Just happened again…this has to be fixed as soon as possible -.-

I’m going to open a thread in bugs forum.

This usually happens to me when I’m doing a leap and an enemy immobilizes/knocks me back. I rarely encounter it, though.

If you cast an ability like GS Symbol of Wrath and then almost immediately after casting switch weapons you will get stuck in the animation and unable to move. If that is not the issue then i don’t know. That’s the only thing I’ve ever experienced along the lines of what you’re saying, but it doesn’t happen too often

yes this is driving me crazy lately since I started playing some staff first time in a long time, seems to be happening after channeling but i’m not sure, but it has gotten me killed a couple bad times that made me want to break my keyboard

yeh; although this isnt a guardian specific problem; i also notice it seems to happen after a channeling skill

I haven’t seen this but twice, and it’s been a while ago. For me it happened using GS3 and taking falling damage on use. I tend to use it to help speed my way along, and sometimes open combat off a hill/cliff with it. When I landed I took the falling damage, and was stuck until I used another movement skill.
