Bug Type: Functionality, Chain Hook

Summary: When firing the chain hook, sometimes it will not shoot the hook at the target location. It will either just sit hovering in the air at the location it was used, or nothing appears and your character sits in the "holding chain" pose. This happens with both the normal chain hook as well as the map-specific chain hooks (Abomination, Eochaid). This becomes a big issue when doing Denizen of the Deep given the very small time window to complete a series of hooks, often resulting in instant death.

Attached picture shows the issue in action during Denizen of the Deep.

    Actually is a problem with lag, you must do: stay on red circle ground, don't move then press F key
    I tried this bug to know how use it, I rotate front to right or left then press F same time caused it bug xD

    problem with lag
    Its not tied to lag because I've had it happen when I'm hosting and solo. Might be related to the engine hiccuping for whatever reason (there's enough things that cause those stutters now).

    stay on red circle ground, don't move then press F key
    It still happens if you do that. It was how I triggered the bug in the image, I just moved to show the hook stuck in place.
