Simple bug description:
My character would get stuck being unable to move without any condition on me. I could use skills but could not move or dodge.

Detailed Bug description and why I think it’s a bug:
I have started to play sPvP just recently. In the beginning things are quite confusing. What intrigued me the most was that at some points, my character would not be able to move just like the ‘simple bug description’, even though I could see no conditions on my character. At first, I thought it might be a skill or spell I don’t understand yet. This occurred repeatedly, usually at least once every two matches. Usually this occurs during combat and usually after someone uses a skill that immobilizes my character.

What at first seemed like something I did not understand confirmed itself as a bug when I got stuck in combat and the opposing team left the area/died. I stayed like this for at least one full minute and I can guarantee that there were no conditions on my character. I reported this issue to my teammates to see if they could help me during this time. One mentioned that I should destroy the roots of a ranger skill, but there was nothing around when I held the CTRL button.

I tested using skills and they would all work (including shouts that) remove conditions. Once other players got around me, they basically said my character seemed broken. I could only move again after I used the burst skill of my hammer, which forcibly moved my character from that spot.

Other details:
As I mentioned, I was playing sPvP. I am a warrior using a shouts build with traits 10/0/30/30/0 and a complete set of Superior Rune of the Soldier (to remove conditions). I don’t know how to properly reproduce this bug as it would only happen in PvP and it’s not an easy testing environment. If I could guess, I think I was affected by an immobilize (usually by many other conditions at the same time) and I removed the negative conditions with a shout. That left my character stuck and unable to move. Not sure, but it mostly occurred after I was affected by many conditions at the same time.

My character name is ‘Mr Tauser’.

Help on proper bug report:
I’m quite new on this game so I don’t know what other information I could provide. I would appreciate it if someone told me what else should I look for and how to gather more information on this bug.
