Hey, this bug ain’t something which gives a character an advantage, it’s just a graphical glitch. How it works:

1) Walk
2) Swap weapons
3) Activate ‘blink’ just after the weapons swapped
4) Your character will be frozen in a certain position. You can still move, however, pressing a different move key will make your character look normal again.

What I also discovered:
5) If you activate a the Mesmer elite skill ‘time warp’ while your characters animations are frozen, your character will be frozen in another position. The ‘design’ position, as your character looks like while it’s being designed.

^This will only work if you have a staff equiped. Both screens (attachments) were taken while moving.

Cheers.

I can’t attach 2 screens at one post? This screen is from the first steps, the other one from the last.

This type of thing has been known for a long time, since beta. And tbh, it’s something that most everyone doesn’t want ‘fixed’ because it’s hilarious and does nothing to anyone at all. It’s just a few mins of that’s funny. All you have to do to get our of it is stop or change direction or put up weapons.

It was funny for the first time indeed, but after 100 times it ain’t funny anymore.

Actually you’d be surprised at how many enjoy doing it still. And I guess I am just used to quickly canceling it by a little sidestep via tapping q/e. I understand that some dislike it, but it is also sad to see fun bugs be ‘fixed’.

If you preview your post you should be able to add another image. Rinse repeat for the number of images you have.

I like the bug, btw. It’s funny, but also super easy to break if you don’t want to suffer it.
