Lunge locking you in place

I saw in the hot fix they wanted feedback on why lunge was sometimes locking people in place and they said they couldn’t find a consistent way to replicate the issue but I noticed it happened every single time you went to Lunge at a target that wasn’t “on screen yet” (void things coming from the ground in Temple of Eterra, spiders descending from the ceiling, etc.). They are still targetable by Lunge but it just locks you in the animation. I haven’t played a multiplayer session yet so I don’t know if this also happens with other players around but I know its a consistent issue in single player.

I managed to reproduce this when I spam my lunge key at the very edge of the screen (preferably the top of the screen) It can lock onto mobs that are quite a bit outside of my view. I don’t have lunge speced in these clips.

Also seemed to happen when I tried to lunge at an enemy just as it teleported.

Hope this helps.

Just did it again while trying to lunge toward the top of the screen.

Edit 1: And another one, this time the mob was just walking at me. https://imgur.com/bXUpaso

It happens alot for me with zombies that have to come up the ground.
Im using ultra wide monitor and i can target the zombies before they start the animation of coming up the ground. And that gets me stuck everytime.
Also in party play if i lunge to a mob and it dies just as i start to lunge, i get stuck midair.

I can attest to getting stuck when the targeted mob teleports or disappears. It also feels like I’m getting stuck when the mob is around a corner or a bend.
The surprise initiative node from javelin, where you can dash towards your flag can also get you stuck mid animation, although I haven’t further tested as to how and why.
Additionally the ‘to your aid’ node, which lets me dash to allies just straight up doesn’t work at all for me.
