Is it me or is it Vindictus? The Broken Hurk.

You can clearly see that you'll probably never hit something unless its as big as braha with the random angles you would swing at if your body was twisted up like this. NO ONE ELSE in-game that i've asked has this problem at all. Its been consistent and persistent occuring after the exact same conditions every time I play a dungeon.

The character body twisting normally happens within the first 30 seconds of a boss fight. Reguardless of weather I use my gaming desktop or my laptop the game will have a random FPS drop to 0 and it'll last for about 3 to 5 seconds. Even if I'm running at 30 FPS. The one in the video I was using my laptop. The performance suffered a bit but I did not record any video during battle so I wouldn't factor that into being part of the problem. I didn't have any secondary games or browsers running either, only Vindictus.

you can see that there is a strange overlapping of animations that breaks the hurks ability to chain attacks properly without going into a rest animation or "stopping the chain". Fast forward to 0:30 in the video. This is incredibly annoying to the Hurk. For those of you who do not use the character I will explain in detail. The Hurk normally sits at 0 stamina in a battle since we don't really regen stamina too often. We use a skill called transcendence to allow us to continue attacking and chaining skills infinitely at 0 stamina, at the cost of HP. Since the hurks stamina burns out quickly and doesn't regenerate very well like others we rely on this transcendence a LOT during a fight. However whatever THIS is that is happening if I would have been using transcendence at 0:30 seconds, you'll see i will do three attacks, after the third attack I would have gotten the "tired" animation during a fight at the same time you saw my character stop and stand upright. The attack came out, but my chain was broken due to the character not moving properly. I cannot describe you guys exactly how many times its gotten me hit and almost killed during battle by attacks that were easily avoidable but instead I just eat the attack since I can't chain an evasion into my attacks.

Despite this I have been unable to find another player nor another hurk that has this same problem for over a week.

    Happens to me almost in every laggy host. Notice short freeze and after you character is holding the weapon in the weird way showed in the video. Sometimes even on the boat when new players are joining and host freeze/lag for a short time. One time happened after DK spear skill was cancelled by an attack. Lynn and Delia btw.

    This commonly happens in PvP Arena for me. Weapons will be floating outside character hands, or shifted up or down the handle. At first I thought characters now had different battle stances in the arena, but this turned out to be simply a bug.

    I have had the same issue, not with only my Hurk in PVE AND PVP but also with my Arisha, Karok and have heard complaints from guildies saying it's happened to their Fiona, Evie and Delia under the same circumstances and I only have poor hosting for Neam so the hosting issue is irrelevant especially if it happens during solo battles.
