Random Immobilize
Yes they are aware but unfortunately have not prioritized fixing it. The only advice I can give you is to use an emote to unstick yourself. I use /sit because its the shortest and fastest to type. Of course having to stop and do that mid-combat is tedious but its the only way to stop yourself from dying.
THanks for your reply. I find that it’s not so much the tedious nature of having to typing /sit, it’s having the presence of mind to do so and realising that it’s not (just) an immobilise/binding roots. Also, typing mid-combat takes up valuable staying alive time.
When I played again tonight, this bug had not been fixed (get used to messages akin to this one, I suppose spamming is the only way to get Arenanet to fix it).
