Thread: 2.16: Delay in changing cross hotbar sets

Platform: Windows
Control type: Gamepad

Since patch 2.16 went live, every time you use an ability or a weapon skill, you are locked from changing cross hotbar sets for about 0.25 seconds. I sure hope it's not working as intended, because I've been using the wrong abilities every single time I try to change sets.

I'm experiencing the same thing.

I can confirm this is an issue on PS3 as well. I just logged in after the patch and tried to do Duty Roulette, and my DPS was significantly impacted by this.

I hope it's a bug, and that they fix it soon. I couldn't do EX primals or Coil like this.

I am getting the same problem as well. It is making things ... difficult to say the least. I am using a 360 controller on the pc version.

Yeah, I went through a dungeon trying to tank and its definitely a problem for those who's used to no delay. Really hope this is fixed.

I can confirm this as well, I was just helping out some lovely people with their Relic Quests and noticed my Hotbar wouldn't quickly change to my next set when I normally pop the LB as soon as I hear the chime, ended up doing something else and initially thinking "Did I rearrange my Hotbar or something"... nope SE either messed up a variable in the UI with Patch 2.16 or they're about to come out and say it's "working as intended"... I hope to god it's not the latter because I absolutely cannot do high level fights like this.

OMG. I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST ME. I was freaking out, thought my system was going out, my controller going out because I keep dropping it, blah blah blah.....

So disappointing... I couldn't save someone in time today because my swiftcast is on a separate crossbar page and my heals are on the other page..... After pressing swiftcast I can usually flip the pages but nope! I have to waste like 2-3 seconds for it to FINISH the animation and then for me to flip it. If I cast something, I have to wait for the animation to finish before flipping pages. The dungeon tonight could have been less messy if it wasnt for the huge delay because I like to flip through crossbars....

I'm on a PS3. Just logged in after the DL patch as well.

I'm not sure but i think you were able to switch hotbars even when one of the highlighting buttons (L2/R2 or whatever someone has them assigned to). right now you have to release the button completely and a bit... really annoying.

guess it has to do with the new grund targeting thing

Yes I have the same issue as well since patch 2.16 :'( I hope this gets fix asap. I am using Ps3 controller connected via USB to PC, Windows platform, and a Motionjoypad gamepad tool software
