Crossbow weapon swap to Bow animation lockup / slowdown
When using a crossbow in weapon slot 1, and a bow in weapon slot 2 if you use a bow ability then try to use xbow basic attack (and auto-swap to xbow) it just holds the xbow as if it were a bow and reduces movement speed by 80%+ Not allowing you to attack.
You then cannot manually swap weapons with keybinding or by clicking on the I or II in character sheet. It will stay this way with movement hampered and unable to attack until you either roll or use a non-xbow skill like casting a curse or attacking with the bow ability again. This applies to several bow skills i tested, but i first noticed this when trying to use stormcaller arrow then auto-swapping back to use galvanic shards or shockburst rounds. If i had to wager a guess the root of the issue is specifically going to xbow from a bow. It's treating me holding the xbow as if i were holding down the xbow attack ability but nothing is coming out. Character walks with CROSSbow "drawn" like a bow. Amusingly if i put the mobility support into the xbow ability of choice, it actually makes this bugged state walk faster when i swap back to the xbow ability that wont fire. Almost as if when auto-swapping from bow to xbow it's internally still treating me as if i have the bow equipped, but visually showing me holding the xbow. It then starts to attack and then faults when it cant figure out if i truly have the xbow or bow equipped. For now i'm just rolling after using stormcaller arrow to pre-emptively break out of the bug, but if anyone knows any other easier way to resolve this bug temporarily i'd appreciate hearing it! Edit: A youtube video i found gives a decent visual of this: watch?v=Ac5vaccQPvU "Poe 2 weapon swap bug with crossbows" by Fallen Wind Last edited by Meleeman345#1580 on Jan 10, 2025, 11:40:01 PM Last bumped on Jan 10, 2025, 11:30:41 PM
