Shift while moving using arrow keys stops movement

[Niraves]

ive been playing for a while, and this has always bugged me. google doesnt seem to bring up any useful information.

yes, im a weirdo that plays using the arrow keys (not numpad, actual arrow keys) and a 20 button mouse for my keybinds.

every time im moving, then press the shift key, i will completely stop moving, until i press a direction again.

im using a logitech g910, so its not ghosting, i can hold down literally every single button on my keyboard and they will all work.

its not a key binding issue, i dont have shift + arrow keys bound to anything, and i even tried binding them to movement to see if that would fix it, it doesnt, then i removed the binds and it still stops me.

if i try to move whole holding left/right click and press shift, it doesnt stop me. if i use wasd and press shift, it doesnt stop me. this only seems to happen with arrow keys, which is the way ive played any and every game for the last 20ish years.

using arrow keys doesnt put me at a disadvantage. 20 button mouse + shift/control covers any and all keybinds, so i dont feel like reteaching my 20 year muscle memory a new way to play.

if anyone knows a fix for this, it would be greatly appreciated.

The only workaround I know is to pre-shift before a move if I anticipate that I will need one of my shift binds, as the arrow keys work again after shift keydown. It is still, however, troublesome, and has proven fatal at least once where I was moving and then used an unanticipated shift bar ability, stopping my movement for just long enough to be too long to get out of an AoE.

yeah thats what ive been doing. but like you said, it can prove to be fatal was hoping there was an actual fix for this.

bump for great justice?

My suggestion would be to use WASD instead of arrow keys.
I've done some mild testing for you and it seems there's no way that I've found to resolve your issue.
