I encountered this annoying glitch four times already over the last two days: simply put, whenever I get knocked down (that is, one or more monsters attack me and fill my knockdown gauge) there's the possibility that I lose the ability to click on the screen with my mouse or use skills until I log off and enter again.
Here are some more detailed informations:
- I cannot move with my mouse: if I click on the screen the character doesn't move. However, I can move with WASD.
- I cannot use normal attacks on enemies because if I click on them nothing happens. Similarly, I cannot hit orbs in orbs room and open gates in dungeons.
- I cannot use skills on my skill bars. Neither clicking on them nor using hotkeys will produce the intended result. Instead, if I click on them without knuckles equipped, "You must have knuckles equipped." will appear on the screen even if the skills doesn't normally require knuckles (i.e. Firebolt, Windmill, Mana Shield, Healing, Restm, Summon Pet). If knuckles are equipped, there's no message but the skills don't work. Fighter skills don't work as well.
- Some skills (i.e. Rest) work if used from the Skill Window even if they don't work when I try to use them from my skill bars, while others (i.e. Firebolt) don't work but don't prompt any message even if knuckles are not equipped. Similarly, I can summon pets from the Pet Window.
- Hotkeyes not related to skills work (i.e. I can open the chat with "L" and the Skill Window with "Z") and I can use the mouse to navigate menus.
- I forgot to check if I can move items in my inventory. Next time it happens, I'll see if I can do it.
Here are additional information I managed to gather:
- The glitch isn't keyed to a particular zone: the first time I experienced it, I was inside an instance in a saga episode, second time in Hillwen Mine B3, third time in Rundal Normal and fourth time in Rundal Advanced.
- The glitch isn't ch-based: it happened in ch1, 4 and 7.
- The glitch doesn't seem to require more than one monster: while most of the times I was attacked by multiple enemies, in Rundal Normal I glitched after being attacked 3 times by a single Skeleton Wolf. For the same reason, it doesn't seem to require a large number of consecutive hits.
Since the possibility of having to relog every time I get hit seriously mines my chances of succesfully run any kind of dungeon or SM, I'd like to solve this glitch as soon as possible. Does anyone have any idea of what could be the problem and how to solve it? I tried to look for a similar glitch on google, but couldn't find anything. If any additional information could help solving this issue, I'll gladly provide it.
Thanks in advance!
