Bug Report: Hex Dark Side

[Araxerleth]

Seems there's a couple of bugs with this one. First, holding down attack will sometimes use your weapon's charged move instead of the fire balls.

second: You freeze up and can only move by dodging - leaving the room seems to work or recasting dark side, but not every build is going to be a mana burner.

Experienced all of these too

The second one JUST happened to me for the first time, lost me a run against Eris.

Additional bug with Dark Side: my cast reverted back to the base cast skill after Dark Side ran out. Can't even charge it up. I was using Storm Ring if that matters. It didn't fix until I moved onto the next location, but it put a big dent in my build as I was using it on a boss.

yeah this hex seems incredibly buggy. something about activating the hex and then charging a cast seems to mess with it (especially if you get a boon or upgrade that lets you charge a cast longer than normal)

not entirely sure if it was the same issue or not but i also experienced a moment where mel was oriented in one direction no matter where i moved (more of just a visual bug), and sprinting was disabled so i could only dash to avoid cerberus's laser attack until it fixed itself eventually

[newmillenniumenglish]

Yes, expirienced the same

Sorry, Dark Side isn't working properly at the moment, you may want to avoid using it until we can get it fixed in an upcoming patch.

for those wondering how to (I assume at least) consistently recreate the bug where you can't move after Hex Dark Side: it happens when the duration of the Hex ends and you instantly cast something (for me it was the special block with the axe).

You can't walk, but you can dash and sprint.

i had another using the version of it that allows you to use your normal cast while in the hex mode. my normal cast, using boons, was to choose the location of the cast, and the cast would create a fire dot. after going into hex form it did neither of those things and reverted back to the default cast for the remainder of the fight. it very nearly killed me during a chronos fight. ever since i avoid it completely

Had similar problems but couldn't recast dark side and had to abanden the run.
