After over an year without playing PW, i came back and started a new bm. But i seen to be getting stuck everywhere! I walk 6 steps and i stay freezed in mid air (even tho i dont fly yet..) and i have to relog and relog or it wont stop. I asked some people and it seens iam not the only one. Does anyone here has this problem and is there a way to fix it? Thanks in advanceb:cute

    it's called rubberbanding and it happens to everyone.

    It's one of PWI's newest features. It's supposed to make you rage quit after endless rubberbanding. And no, there is no fix for it anywhere in the future.

    Not everyone. For me, it's always the same --- very often, although not always, when I unsummon the flying mount above an NPC I get stuck like this, sometimes even in midair, when trying to walk. Getting on the mount and disembarking again usually fixes it; if it doesn't then the next time it will, or the next time, or the next time. Usually takes just one try.

    However, once I'm firmly on the ground, nothing like this has ever happened to me. As far as I'm concerned, the bug only affects getting off a flying mount, and possibly only getting off a flying mount on top of an NPC (exactly on top, as approached by the auto"pathing").

    Occasionally it even seems to fix itself --- since I fly at height 78, it somehow feels as if the client and the server don't quite agree on the speed of me falling down, so I hit the ground and walk away but the server still thinks I'm falling and the client puts me back to where I should be, until eventually they get synced again.

    Since the OP doesn't even fly, as far as I'm concerned he has hit an entirely different bug.
    Slow progress, game is getting way too grindy :-( Quests I still hope to be able to do some day: FB39, General Feng

    Not a different bug, its normal rubberbanding.

    You can get it falling off cliffs or running over certain patches of uneven ground.

    One of the more recent patches actually fixed the rubberbanding around the tideborn elders building thingy. Havent bothered with anywhere that matters though, like say HALF OF ARCHOSAUR.

    But yea, until you can fly, all you can do is relog, sorry man :(
