Herald's Footpads Not Working in Path of Ascension

The footpads aren’t always giving me the dash action. It looks like they work the first time in and then every time afterwards they leave my character in place but swimming in the air. I have to leave the area entirely and then reenter, but the problem still occurs after the first dash. It started on the Craven challenge but I wasn’t using them on the two before so not sure. If I select to rechallenge, the footpads will still continue to fail.

Also, sorry for the 2nd post. I deleted the first thinking I was in the classic forums.

I’m also having this issue as well. My guy never dashes just ports in place and starts to levitate there. I can’t really do one of my bosses because of it.

Same issue here… Does not dash me forward, it makes Pelagos float and move slower than walking speed. Can’t progress until this is FIXED. Annoying.

Same issue with the Craven challenge. No dash, just floats.

Seemed to work a couple of weeks ago when I used it one the first challenge.

Is there seriously no response to this? They were working this morning, now nothing. Waste of time even trying to progress the Path.

Same issue. I trigger the boots and I’m just kind of levitating without the dash and to top it off if you are floating/levitating like that you cannot get the absorb shield from your third ability. You have to cast your 1 or 4 to get your feet back on the ground.

same thing here. wasted 4 tries !!!

I sent in a bug report a few weeks back. tried again today to do Craven Corinth. I got the boots to work twice over 4 attempts. Still unreliable. Stands in place and when I move after it looks like I’m swimming.

More than a month later, this is STILL broken.

Should change the tool tip to

Herald’s Footpads: pops you into the air and nerfs you to swim speed

Because that’s what it actually does.

Same for me on my 60 - the Herald’s footpads have NEVER worked correctly (they work fine for my friend’s toon), and always work to make my 60 move more slowly/swim. At this point it’s not even worth me doing Path of Ascension at all.

I’m also getting this issue. I though this swimming movement was just how it worked, but got confused because it made me slower instead of faster (i.e. it’s not worth using at all). Came to the forum, looked up some videos, and realised it’s never worked for me.

Still horrendously bugged. Can’t even do any of the fights that require quick movement cause Pelagos thinks he’s a bloody fish and moves even slower.

august 2021, still freaking bugged…c’mon blizz.

literally CANNOT BEAT mad morimter on Humility with pelagos b/c the stupid footpads only work like 25 percent of the time…can’t build distance and whats worse…it wont let you use confront memories if you are not on the ground. It is ABSOLUTELY ridiculous that this has been going on so long.

9.1.5 still bugged, this is absolutely ridiculous blizzard how has no moderator even acknowledge this? Can’t beat the first fight on humility with pelagos without these.

Just switched to Kyrian and started doing the Path of Ascension and it is still bugged

Blizzard has no intention of fixing this and many other bugs. It’s not even like they don’t know how or can’t get around to it. They just aren’t bothered.
