Infinite Running

Searched a little bit and didn't really see anything so...

I have this problem. Actually, two problems but I'll state the main one first as mentioned in the title.

Lately it seems, while doing instances such as FF and now even Brimstone (happened while doing my FB), I get stuck into an infinite running loop...

I stop walking/running, I'm still actually running in spot even though my character is actually still in one place.

I try to attack and it takes several seconds before the skill starts to kick in...same with regular melee.

I try to meditate or sit or do other emotes but I can't...I'm still stuck in this infinite running loop.

The way to fix it is to just log out but it starts to become a hassle when it starts happening more than three times! Not only does it take a little while to log out then log back in, but my squads would have to go through the inconvenience of wasting mana trying to rebuff me because I had to log out.

I don't know WTH I'm doing that's making this happen, but it seems I'm not the only one alone in this situation. I've had plenty of other assassins complain about this same problem...and even barbarians, too! This is starting to get ridiculous!

And the other thing that other assassins and I are having problems with inside FF is doing the teleports. When something goes wrong and we try to save someone or whatever, and attempt to teleport to the monster, the skill shows as used and goes into cooldown but we never left our spot to begin with! If that made sense.

):

So please, devs., tell me what other information you need from me because this is driving me, and I'm sure many others, insane.

    Please use the mouse to click on something in the game world to navigate around the issue carefully. Or try holding the W, A, S, or D key down until you get unstuck.

    This is sorta different from what I think you might be thinking of. It's not that I'm just stuck in a specific spot. I can still move around and such but once I stop moving around, my character still animates as running...but in one spot. s: If I can ever remember to fraps it if it happens again, I'll be sure to provide video if that helps.

    That totally sounds like what happened to barbs when Bestial Rage was being changed a long time ago. Sometimes when using it caused exactly what you described.

    What I would do is play rough for a while with one skill at a time until it happens. Try multiple times with X skill until you're sure it's that one.

    Of course, this is all assuming that it's exactly like what happened to us.

    Happens once with me in FF few days ago. I tried all keys and mouse many times, but only restart of game client helped. Very "floating" bug so hard to fix, i think =(
    BTW, it's not 'sticked' key, because chat working well with all keys.

    Two things to add to this;

    Firstly, this can be caused by using distance-skills, shadow jump, etc. As with the rubber banding effect, the idea is to stop people from being caught inside terrain.

    I have personally, and seen friends get stuck in the roof and walls of instances like frost, when teleporting to a target.

    Secondly, what you described isn't so much like the above, but rather like a glitch i've seen happens a lot when embracing. I've also had it happen during normal play, although I can't think of any real reason.

    You should find the following; Your character is permanently 'running', if you jump in the air, your character will move up and down slowly, and can be 'paused' mid-jump, and if you're holding someone, and you're flying, you can remain in the air for a short period of time, when you dismount.

    I'd suggest re-logging, or trying to teleport to another target, if possible.

    Hope that helped a tiny bit.

    Oh, and as a side-note, some instances don't allow, or limit the usage of teleport and movement skills, I think this depends on the height restrictions for each instance, because I know BH29 is like this.
