Fishing with Ivara's wire

[Shininkira]

Hello, love what you are doing De!
This little bug has been here since plain of eidolon  I really enjoy taking Ivara fishing with her wire, the only problem is that there is a huge latency when you throw your spear from that wire (it does the same for your friend)!
Also, not a bug but why can't we use the bait on the wire?

Thank you and have a nice day!

Hi Shininkira,

Just letting you know that we've been able to reproduce the issue with the delayed spear in-house and we are currently in the process of looking for a solution. We'll try to have one for you in a timely manner.

Thanks!

Ah Linkski, thank you for taking a look a this. Ivara dashwire fishing has been a really unique fishing activity and we have been enjoying it since day one of PoE's release, albeit with its own set of bugs. We've been wanting to have it get looked at for a while so that it becomes a much more smoother experience and less cumbersome to utilize.

In regards to the delayed spear on dashwire, the community work-around suggestion was to either tap 'right-mouse click followed by left-mouse click in quick succession of each other' or do it vice-versa (either way would result in the spear being thrown instantly while on dashwire). If others couldn't get the timing down right, then trying to press both buttons at the same time, usually resulted in the same effect. We've been suggesting these techniques to work around the delayed spear issue on dashwire until a fix has occurred, but I also wanted to please draw attention to other important issues that @Shininkira has pointed out in their OP as well.

1. While on dashwire, we can't use the fishing menu 1/2/3 to change the fishing spear, nor change bait, nor change the dye. The fishing menu cannot be opened while on dashwire which means we have to constantly get on and off the dashwire, just for the sake of changing spears and bait. This makes for a cumbersome experience. Can this be adjusted?
2. In relation to point 1, we cannot throw bait or dye while being on the dashwire. If we try to throw bait/dye from dashwire, we get animation locked for a few seconds and nothing actually happens (we can't move and no bait or dye is deployed). Can we please be allowed to throw bait and dye while sitting on the dashwire, instead of getting animation locked?
3. Minor thing, usually we press spacebar (jump button) to quickly skip the fish captured cut-scene. However, if you're on the dashwire, this will occasionally register as an actual jump input which results in you falling off the dashwire and into the water, causing a position reset. Does not always happen, but not fun to deal with constantly either. Is it possible to have this adjusted as well?

Points 1 and 2 are really the major things we'd like to get looked at/fixed. May they please be considered for hotfixes in the future?

Any possible update on this? Still in the works right DE?

Yep, still in the works. Unfortunately the fix is a bit complicated, but I can assure you that this is still on our radar.

BTW there new bug or glitch call freeze frame rate (or as you call it scene shot that cannot moving), it turn your game into photo, but the funny thing is you hear frame moving hear and background nosic.

Something I just wanted to add (and again, thank you Linkski for keeping this on the radar), while doing some of the nightwave fishing challenges (both in PoE and and Orb Vallis), Dashwire fishing with Ivara has slightly different unusual interactions between the two locations. Coming back to what I wrote earlier (about point 3), where if you press space bar (jump button by default), to skip the fish capture scene, Ivara will jump off of her dashwire by accident. This actually happens in Orb Vallis, not so in PoE (but PoE has a slightly new bug now). In orb vallis, most likely the space bar is being registered as an actual jump instead of being registered to skip the fish captured scene (it's easy to tell when the player spams pressing space bar to hurry up the fish capture scene). It's only an issue in Orb Vallis. In PoE, a new bug has occurred, where spamming space bar to skip the fish capture scene may accidentally cause some sort of weird animation lock for Ivara, where she can't move on her dashwire for about 1 second. She luckily doesn't jump off her dashwire in PoE, but the animation lock on PoE seems to be new? Just some things I observed and wanted to report on, while dashwire fishing.
