    Battleship gets stuck randomly when you mount immediately after certain attack skills.

    GIF shown below is just one example:

    [Invisible shot] >> [Battleship] >> (anything else)
    Right arrow key is held down the whole time.

    You can see a moment that my character is not moving. During that time, I can't move or use any skills. Essentially frozen.

    Invisible shot is just an example, also happens for other skills like Double Shot and Blank Shot.

    This is also happening very frequently on:

    EDIT:
    Correction, this is happening on almost every "Skill into battleship", whether you use it in a skill macro or not

    This is not about practice, it's about inconsistent skill behavior that requires fixing

    I can't remember if this is an issue that arose after battle ship delay was reduced and we get on ship real quick while the previous skill's casting delay isn't finished yet (octo off ship, air strike, even homing beacon if you ship immediately after cast).

    Yes, I understand that you have much more experience as a corsair than I have, but it sounds more like you have just endured and accepted this skill behavior. You have even identified it as a "classical problem" yourself.

    Just because it has been a problem for a long time doesn't mean it shouldn't be changed.

    Why I feel this freezing is a problem that needs fixing:
    • Can't be replicated consistently
    • Penalizes players for trying to be faster/more efficient
    • Brickwalls players from getting creative with their skill rotations
    Definitely feels like this is an unintended skill behavior. The best way is to have the admins weigh in on this, saying whether this was intended and whether they want to keep it this way.

    Can confirm that the ship has a strange delay behavior after skill casts. It’s annoying and clunky, especially since it also happens if you remount too quickly right after casting Homing Beacon.
    This is not a skill or practice issue, but a bug that should be looked into.
    As a side note, the octo+ship+gaviota macro is mainly used for dismounting so you can Rapid Fire sooner than with manually casting dismount followed by octo+gaviota. It’s not really meant for remounting due to the delay. It is still a viable dismount macro, even though the effect is less noticeable after the reduced mount delay change.
