Can’t move character on login - xbox
1,831,526,736
Can’t move characters upon login, only fix was to interact with nearby objects with a button, which would run my character to the object, upon which my control of the left analog stick was regained, nothing else has worked, and since in act 3 there are no nearby objects to interact with upon login in town, my character is effectively stuck and can’t move, have tried various solutions suggested by ingame chat such as toggling displayed items, /oos, other various things such as restarts resets, have not tried a re-install yet. Everything works except the left analog upon login, can use menu view map look at inventory, I think if I could drop something on the ground and interact with it, my character would probably be set free, but as I am in a town that can’t be done, maybe if I see some player in my area I might be set free, to be caged again upon my next login, all in theory of course.

Hi,
Have you tried another controller in case it's specific to your current one? The issue sounds like a problem with the left analog stick but it's odd that it only happens after you've logged in. Once you fix the issue, does the game appear to speed up momentarily before returning to regular speeds? | |
It’s not the controller, honestly not sure about the frames part, the analog works in inventory so it’s 100% not the controller, my only way to fix it was to hit the A button to interact with something in town at which point my character ran to that point, and my movement was back.
Right now it’s as if the analog doesn’t work, but only for movement, works everywhere else, with no way to fix it at all, it’s as if my character is doomed. The issue is local to one character only, I just created a new character to test, and he was able to move just fine, (tried the main character after, and she’s still stuck) it’s as if there’s some invisible gui in the way for my witch or something misdirecting the input, not sure, just guessing what it could be from the software standpoint. It started to happen in act two, maybe half way through, and it has plagued the character every single login since it started, but as mentioned earlier I am unable to work around the issue anymore. Just saw someone run by me in town, and I was able to interact with him, but since there was no way to make my character move to him with a follow command since it doesn’t exist, and I was able to trade with him at any range so having another player there didn’t free me. |

So there is something wrong with that character specifically, though there's nothing odd that jumps out to me about the character. Could you tell me what your key binds look like? What is bound to A, X, Y and B?
It might also pay to equip all your gems and see if that works? Certain skills prevent from you moving if they are trying, but failing, to be used. It's possible one of the skills is trying to be cast in town for some reason. | |
That was the case, un-equipping my entire character solved the issue, thank you.

Hey just wanted to check back and let you know that I have to apply this fix upon every single login on this character, I’ve narrowed it down to my 3 socket wand, with spark and double lightning supports.
Do I need more specifics? It’s quite annoying, didn’t think it would keep persisting, had to destroy some stuff to unequip so I hope you can see how this could be problematic in certain circumstances. |

Hi,
Does this happen with Spark on it's own or in another item? What button is Spark bound to when you socket it? | |
It moves with spark for me, was in a wand now in a plate, has always been linked, it was previously two attachments but now it’s expanded to 5, they are all commons store bought nothing fancy, don’t recall which exact two were the OG supports.
Light penetration - i know thats a new one for a fact Added light damage - i know thats an old one for a fact Cruelty support Spell echo support Increased critical support As always I move away from act 3 simply clicking A will unlock my movement because my character will run to interact with something in town, otherwise its the undress option. Every log in, even character swap, but when glitch is fixed won’t happen again until play session resets, I hope this is helping you guys there seems to be a lot of issues arising for others in regards to this. Just wanted to say I also have the tab issue, depositing anything reveals contents, even if the item can’t be deposited, to which my created workaround is to carry a small quest item if possible and simply try to drop it into every empty bank tab, nothing happens besides revealed contents. You know for next post I’ll do my due diligence and try to unequip some of the supports and see what sort of change they bring if any, hope to find the culprit, fingers crossed, could be just the spark itself too. 🧐 |

I do have to underline the fact it happened right after some questline thing in Act two and has happened ever since, but will check the support sockets like I said I would.

This has happened to me since the patch and also since I started a play through on the ruthless gamemode but 100% since my game updated, I am using a saboteur so no spark skill in my setup so it isn’t that skill that would cause the issue so no worries for you. I think in general it’s either a patch has ruined it or maybe it’s into do with the ruthless gamemode
