Character stuck in "triumphant" pose

[Ashantara.8731]

Funny bug I have encountered repeatedly, where - after using a gathering tool or interacting with a vista - the character remains stuck in this "triumphant" pose until you re-log or zone:

Ok, I admit, I giggled when I saw the screenies. I mean every epic hero needs to "paws" and rejoice in his or her victories. :-) However, that would drive me bonkers after a while. I am curious if you have tried the repair process to see if that helps.Here is the link:https://help.guildwars2.com/hc/en-us/articles/201863008-Repairing-the-Game-Client

Also there is a downloadable file that I have used previously and it worked quite well:https://help.guildwars2.com/hc/en-us/articles/231273708-Files-to-Help-Solve-Tech-Problems

Hope you get this resolved.

I too experienced that as an asura, typically after unmounting.

Same thing happened to me months ago, I should still have screens somewhere.

Had this happened to me more than a few times. Usually happens when I gain a level while doing some action like combat or mounting. Zoning or logging fixes it, easy enough.

It might indeed be connected to mounting/unmounting a lot in a short period of time.

There are other unmounting issues, too. For instance, I have had instances of not being able to attack or use any skills fo that matter after unmouting. I had to re-log to solve that issue. Mounts are still a pretty bugged feature it seems.

Everytime it happens, which is rarely, it gives me the giggles as well. ;) Swimming looks like Superman floating through the air in that pose. :3

Of course, and it is not an issue with my files, I assure you. :) Still, thanks for the links.

happens to me time to time, not only the triumph pose, but other poses too, have nothing to do with mount/unmount, been experiencing it before HoT; like getting knocked down by mobs and stuck in planking pose

I know what you mean. Unmounting often doesn't change back to my normal skill bar, I'm stuck with a broken mount bar then. Or my pet doesn't appear, even when starting attacking - I have to unstove it manually.

What I meant was that it does change back, but I am unable to use any of my skills.

In either case, yes, I have the pet issue as well on occasion. And tons of other unmounting related issues.

My guardian remained like He-man for 1 hour and a half, more or less, but even with one arm he was able to craft all the time (the power of Grayskull). As @Ashantara.8731 said, this might be caused by the very frequent mount/unmount (I did it continuously to retrieve my mats from the trading post to the crafting station).

Hah hah hah hah, this always cracks me up. =) Thanks for sharing. At least your character's mouth wasn't agape. ;)It's even funnier to look at during fights, because the stiff pose remains, no matter what (imagine my thief doing jump-rolls in that pose - gave me quite a laugh!).

Here is another occurrence of "stiffness" related to mounts (this happened to me only once, though):I call this piece of art "Griffon frozen in time". ;)

Wow, never happened with a mount. It's... interesting. And gratz for the pictures, it's the first time that I see a Charr with good proportion on a mount (usually I have pity for those mounts. Yours has no problem apparently, even without the two front paws).Here there's also the "superman" version.

Hmm, I have a more muscular, male Charr warrior as well and have not experienced any such issues with him, either.

Here there's also the "superman" version.

Why am I having horror flashbacks of the latest Star Wars episode (which, for me and many others, was the last nail in the coffin of this franchise)? ;)

That happened to my asura and I made it my new Discord avatar. :)Sadly not on my home computer so I can't share - hopefully I remember tonight!
