I have experienced this problem over 5 times now. I get in a fight, and get killed at a moment where my enemy isn’t dead yet but dies within a fraction of a second after me. Most of the times I don’t even see the game switch to downed state, but I do get the message: ’’Rallied’’.

Nice I survived, but only 1 problem:

I cannot move.

I can use spells (also on keyboard), I can use my mouse, I can attack enemies (when defeating them the downed state is broken, nothing else seems to be affected).
If nothing spawns, I have no further option but to logout and re-login. If nothing else happens I can sit and watch the aegis symbol for over 30 minutes. being able to do everything but move. I can switch weapons, use traits, select skills, change weapons carried (not the “`”) but in the hero screen. I can do anything except move (& jump). I see jumping as a move.

Has this been an issue for anyone else?

(I play a Necromancer)

Most of the times I have damaged the enemy 11 to 12 bleeding. so enemy death is almost simultaneous with mine. If the difference between my & enemy death is more then 1 second nothing matters, but I’m wondering if simutaneous or near simultaneous deaths can and/or already have been verified to cause this.

I will try to provide a screenshot after the next occurence…

I’ve once had about 4 micro deaths within 2 seconds (against boss in volcano fractal). It was hard to tell the exact number due to notifications overriding earlier ones :P but I think there were that many screen flicker and dings
anyways, it sometimes happens to me where I can’t move after a shocking event (like stunned, downed, etc.), but if I let go of the movement key then press it again, it works. maybe this is the issue?

I hope this works as I am not that technical. Here should be the picture:
Note the aegis sign at the yellow arrow. I am the standing Necromancer, seen from behind.

I read on and found this has to do with the Superior Rune of the Afflicted, and death nova (confirmed), and or other deaths at the exact moment of downing (to be confirmed).
The on-downed deathnova, could kill your enemy/enemies, leaving you stuck.

Guess this ends the thread as the cause seems to be located. and the solutions are easy, and there is an concrete bug.

Superior Rune of the Afflicted can and will cause moments where the player suffers a permanent downed state, leaving him unable to move.

Workarounds:
- Log-off and log on again
- /dance Emote (this one wroks didn’t try others)
- Removing/Replacing the 6th rune
- Kill another foe from the place where you standing as they respawn or wander to close. You will re-rally…
