R2 button not working (using a PS4 controller)

[Arumi-chan]

Literally every button works except for the R2 button and because of that, I can't do heavy attacks. Checked if my R2 button was faulty, but it worked fine on other games.

The only way I can use a heavy attack is on mouse and keyboard lol.

Try disabling the Steam Input then closing Steam after that use the DS4Windows tool (also tick the "Hide DS4 Controller" box) to connect your controller, this fixed the problem for me

Also, this:
"Hey found a fix, go to Elden Ring in library, right click and manage>controller config then go to right trigger keybind and make the soft pull action right trigger also and make the soft pull point the lowest it can go and just in case change trigger response to aggressive. Got it working FINALLY." fix from Reddit worked for people as well

Yeah that's what I did. I was just messing with the controller settings earlier and when I checked the "Soft Pull action trigger" option, it suddenly started working. Thought it was just a random stroke of luck that it started working again but it seems that this method is the temporary fix to the problem.

I think maybe it's a bug in the game that for some reason doesn't detect the R2 click normally.
