(pc) Storm pillar randomly stops wizard being able to walk

in Bug Reports (PC)
Hi all! I have recently encountered a bug, whilst using storm pillar to clear mobs, and once finished unable to move, with the exception of being able to teleport. Only methods so far of being able to clear it... Is to die, change instance or log out and in, which is not of a pain when in an instance. Anyone else encountered this?

    Much like the game itself, this bug is approaching its 10 year Anniversary.

    I have had that happen at the worst times, sometimes you can transport out of there and go back in and begin moving, but many times you cant. Once in a great while you can just quit the game and if you are real quick the instance is still open. I wish they could fix it, I almost switched back to arcanist because of it. It isn't just storm pillar that can cause it either, because when I eliminated that once to keep that from happening it still happened.

    You can always switch back to arcanist. You just don't use Storm Pillar when you are arcanist.
    Scorching Burst of Thaumaturge has similar (if not the same) issue.

    I stopped using either one. I have not experienced any of the mentioned problem for months (if not longer) now.

    Greetings,

    We're aware and investigating regarding Storm Pillar & Scorching Burst.

    It's hard to reproduce and fix these issues, so we apologize for the delay.

    Thanks again for your patience!

    Hi Percemer, I tried it again tonight.... Found it difficult to force the bug in open world. Joined a rdq, and managed to get it to happen, perhaps trying that would help for you to reproduce it.

    I believe it happens after you cast those encounters on an enemy (or enemies) and that enemy (or those enemies) were all killed (by others) before the encounter landed. It is hard to do that in solo unless your companion happens to be able to do that at that very moment.
