Makes sprinting so much better

Omg thank you for this tip

Thank you!! Sprinting felt so clunky with WASD

This is a game breaker wow thanks

Taking this further if u see a pack in front of u let go of space and hold it again to cancel into a quick roll to sprint. This also works for taking quick turns

I feel like the majority of the people who say sprint is unusable don’t know this. Does the system need amelioration? Yes, but it is far from unusable

This does not seem to be working correctly for me - Might be because of my resolution or something (5120x1440), but no matter what my character always run directly right if I’m not holding a WASD key.

Sprinting feels fine on WASD, though. Not sure if people are feeling weird because they’re holding W or something while turning?

MVP OF TIPS

I could kiss you rn

I’ll have to try this tomorrow when I log in.

Beginning of Act III all I could think of was that Simpson’s clip with Sideshow Bob and the rakes.

Just remember,

Don’t chat and drive!

Stay safe on the roads exiles.

Life changing

WOW! This changes so much! Thanks!

Now they just need a tiny bit more left/right control so it isn’t as stiff and remove the animation after running and the game will be fixed for movement for the most part!

12 hours of squishing WASD, then I read this…

I’m confused, wouldn’t letting go of movement make you stop moving entirely and do that dumb slowdown/stagger animation thing? 

I noticed this after some trial and error. Feels better too, zippy

This makes it sound like Sion ult

This feels more like a bug report than a tip tbh. Like why would i want to move with my mouse when im using wasd to move the rest of the time? Just let me turn properly with wasd

Why is this not mentioned anywhere

it feels so so much better when you do this. its so difficult to handle with wasd and smooth with cursor

I’ve actually gotten quite good at sprinting with WASD now.

The big thing for that was: look at the character and the area directly. Do not have the map open. Look first where you want to sprint, remember the path, turn off the map overlay and LOOK where you are going.

Sounds simple, but after years of overlay map walking this was harder than I expected

Can I get the sprint tip to decouple it from the dodge hotkey and map it to its own hotkey instead?

So it’s like moving with your mouse instead. Huh, Poe2 becoming Poe1 by the day

Its better but it feels really awkward to just let go of wasd. I wish i could hold w to move forward and use mouse to steer.

Holy shiet, that’s life changing

Thank you. Never thought of that

How do i sprint?

Thanks for the tip, but i literally can’t let go of WASD. Decades of playing, made my fingers never let go of it, no matter what. It’s on subconscious level.

Holding space kinda defeats the purpose for me though, I specifically changed it so I wouldn’t have to hold space.

So they do have the technology to make blink target cursor on WASD…

About to name my character Sion

This is what it feels like default sprinting on controller. Playing on steam deck and was confused about everyone saying sprinting felt clunky. It feels so smooth on gamepad except for the weird stopping end sprint animation.

Sprint with WASD is extremely unintuitive for me. Make this a PSA pls!
