Characters moving slowly

I did the “Frozen Freestyle” quest in Tiragarde Sound on my monk and since then all of my characters are moving slowly. When logged in on my mage, I am running very slowly and sometimes sliding on ice, in Boralus. I have ofc. tried pressing /, but that just made my character walk. When I pressed it again, my character returned to running very slowly. I have also logged out for an hour, but that didn’t help either.

Hello Adelena,

Please try and sign up for an arena match, that should remove all visible and unvisble buffs.

Kind regards


What’s your opinion?

I have now done a random battleground and an “Arena Skirmish”, but I am still running at about half speed compared to everyone else here on Vek’nilash.

Hello again,

Have you possibly done this here while being in Tiragarde Sound?

Kind regards


What’s your opinion?

No, I have not clicked on an anchor before. Just to be certain, I went to the underwater bar, clicked on an anchor and then removed the buf. That did not help. My problem is: when I press down the W key, then my character runs at half speed. If I then, while holding down W, press A or D then my character speeds up and runs at normal speed.

hi. i have same issue. when i move with keyboard button my character. as i move slow by pushing keyborad buttons (w, a, s, d doesn’t matter) if i press any other keyborad button my character’s move fixed.

what is resolved this issue

In my case the problem was my ASUS ROG Claymore keyboard’s “Repeat Acceleration” that I by accident had enabled. When I pressed a key, my keyboard sent the key-press event multiple times to the game. Disabling this solved my problem.
