Character Stuck Attacking in place with Smite skill.

As the title says, my character is stuck in place, when I click the left mouse button it uses my skill as if I was holding down the shift key, but I am not touching the keyboard. I have narrowed it down to the lvl 20 23% quality Smite skill that I just traded for.

I am able to replicate this problem 100% of the time.

I swap to my old lvl 18 smite skill, no problem, left click to move, left click on a mob to attack, hold down shift to attack in place.

Swap to the new lvl 20 23% quality smite skill, cant move on left click, cannot interact with any objects with left click, character just uses smite in place as if I am holding down the shift key.

Swap back to my lvl 18 smite skill, no problem.


No other skill that I have presents with this problem. I have tried other quality 23 skills, lvl 20 skills, sub lvl 20 skills, lvl 21 skills, none of my skills present with this issue except this particular lvl 20 23% quality smite.

I have searched the forums and there seems to be people with similar issues but the solutions do not make any sense to me. Based on what I am reading, this is what I have done so far.

1. Yes my left click is bound to skill 1, as it is in the default input settings.
2. Yes I have tried restoring controls to default.
3. Yes I have tried switching to a normal attack on the left mouse button, it works fine when I do that but as soon as I select smite as my left click, the problem comes back
4. Yes I have checked that smite is on my left click.
5. Yes I have restarted both my computer and the game.
6. Yes my character has more than enough attributes to use the skill.

And just another thing I noticed, the exact same thing happens if I assign smite to my right click.

Anyone able to help me with this?

Thanks for the report.
When you left click the ability in your Skill Bar, does it show "Always Attack Without Moving" checked? If so you can uncheck it and hopefully that will solve your problem.

Wow I never knew that option was there. I just logged in to check, the option is not checked but the problem is also gone. Is there any way the option would somehow check itself for certain skills? Cos I didnt know about the option and could not have turned it on.
That option is specific to the Gem itself rather than the Skill.
So if you have 2 Smite Gems, then one might have it checked whilst the other one doesn't.
This option remains checked if you bought the gem off another player and they had the option checked originally.

Ah that explains it! The other guy probably had it checked. Thanks very much for the help, this solved my problem!
