Weapon swapping between quarterstaff and crossbow breaks animations; unable to use skills.

Bug Report ID: #3674119638

If I have a quarterstaff in weapon slot 1, and then attempt to use Crossbow Shot (with a crossbow in weapon slot 2) - my character is left using the quarterstaff pose, but is now holding their crossbow.




In this state, my character is unable to swap weapons using the default keybind, nor are they able to use any of their crossbow skills, including loading the crossbow. Their movement also appears to be slowed down as if they are attacking. They are however able to swap back to the quarterstaff by using a quarterstaff skill. This seems to restore the character to the previous state (i.e. movement is back to normal).

This interaction can be prevented by first manually weapon swapping to the crossbow, and then using Crossbow Shot.

Steps to replicate:

Class: Mercenary

Weapons slot 1: Quarterstaff

Weapon slot 2: Crossbow

Equipped skills: Storm Wave, Shockburst Rounds

While holding a quarterstaff, attempt to use Shockburst Rounds

just found out the same issue

Crossbow On Slot 1 and Quarter Staff on Slot 2.

Crossbow to Ice Strike works but while holding quarter staff to use Fragmentation Rounds it causes the bug. Current workaround is to fire any grenade first then Crossbow skills work as usual.
