The new archwing contols

[(XBOX)PandaMonium7651]

The new archwing controls are really weird like I try to do the new universal blink thing and I cant, does anyone else have this problem, like I can only move up and down. I've tried many different button combinations and it doesn't work. is it just broken or am I dumb?

The changes that refined Afterburner and brought Blink to all Archwings were not included in this Update because we could not get them to work properly in time, and we did not want to hold the rest of the content. We were optimistic we could include it, but it was apparent in our testing that we’d cause quite a few binding blunders releasing it in its current state. So we are putting time into releasing a more controller friendly version of the changes for our console Tenno. That said, one Archwing change we did include in this update from the batch in PC’s Update 26.1 is Itzal's new ability “ARCH LINE”. This means that Blink will be temporarily unavailable until we release it on all Archwings with sensible bindings. It goes without saying that we know this is extremely disruptive for our Tridolon hunters who heavily rely on the ability - we will be resolving this in the next Update! We know this is not ideal, we apologize for the temporary hold on Blink while we work to improve overall Archwing controls on controllers. 

 

I think it's not possible to blink with a controller

Consoles just got Empyrean like a couple days or so ago, it says we can in the patch notes, but we still can't blink. Its not entirely specific, it comes down to tap L1 or Double tap, but neither of those work, at least for me.

I dont like using it since you can shoot or use powers on its cooldown
