A question: Did waypoint and find yourself stuck in this state? I’ve noticed something similar – once in a while when I waypoint I’ll be stuck in a ‘falling’ animation. Most of the time I have to rewaypoint or relog to fix, but once in a while the fall animation will cancel and I’ll be able to seemingly move and run as normal, but still be skill locked as if I was falling.
I’m wondering if this is more of a general bug than simply interactables or waypointing, and instead some kind of disconnect in communication between player client and server player location/state.
No, I was in a middle of event when I found out that my skills were blocked. I just moved close to waypoint to avoid aggressive mobs before starting recording video.
All this lasted until I re-logged, that was at least 10 minutes, and no signs of bad connection or something.
Recently, I encountered the same bug. Not sure if it was caused by interactable object, but it looks very similar.
And I noticed another thing about it – in this “locked” state dodges don’t consume any energy, so I can dodge repeatedly. Also, my “Signet of Shadows” skill was working normally (I suppose it was because of skill specifics).
I recordered a short video about it, hope it will be of any help.
