I've had this same problem many times. It happens with various heroes but more often when I'm playing light side.After Darth Vader's choke, Boba Fett's Concussion Rocket, or some other stuns, if you survive afterward often you can't use any abilities or jump for the rest of that life until you die (then everything resumes working again). I've had it happen most often with Rey but I think also with Boba.

Hello David.Yes, as I have written above, the stun works fine and it temporarily disables your abilities. However, sometimes your abilities won't become active again after you have been stunned. If you take a close look at this 20-second video here https://youtu.be/xvMq2nTCtPs?t=2m5s you can see exactly what I mean. In the video, you see me as Han Solo fighting Kylo. He stuns me (freeze ability) after which I escape and survive. Around the 2:20 mark my middle ability comes out of cooldown, but turns instantly grey, which means I cant use it.The only way to use them again is to die/respawn. If there is anything else you would like to know, feel free to reply to me.

This bug also disables jumping in my case when playing as Rey. Blocking and dodging still works though.

"@EA_David I have played HvV today and watched closely for this bug. I have the updated version of the game and this bug is still present on PC (04-12-2017 23:02). Here is a clip I filmed today (after the update). You can see me as Han Solo using the middle (sharpshooter) ability. Then the right ability goes into grey modes (not usable), which is as expected. Then the right ability comes online after I finished the middle one (this is visible in the video by playing it back slowly, you can do this in youtube under settings)Then Darth Chokes me. After he did that, my right ability can't be used anymore. You can see this in the video at the grey colour. I tried to use it but that doesn't work. It's really short: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tkLWGub8tRA&feature=youtu.be(from the 0:13 I should be able to use it)Since it is out of cooldown after he chokes Han, it should be directly usable instead of being grey.

@TinogiggedyDo you have any footage to show this? I'm not sure if I got your explanation correctly, but by saying you have to deplete your stamina so blocking works again, you're probably talking about the Disabled Block BUG: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/Disabled-Block-BUG/td-p/6762835In that thread I showed a video where by triggering another BUG (one I called the Half-Block BUG), I can then trigger the Disabled Block BUG on purpose, which makes my lightsaber hero's blocking to stop working at all, despite still slowing me down when I push the block button. And if I deplete my stamina, blocking comes back to normal.However, while affected by the Disabled Block BUG, my blocking animation doesn't work at all, which is in contrast to your explanation I believe. And this BUG is situational, as it happens due to some trigger during a match, so it starts fine (rarely it already starts Bugged), and it doesn't carry over to other matches (unlike the Disabled Run BUG which does carry over).If you are with the Disabled Block BUG, then you'll never be able to block anything kylo does, actually anything at all (only by Dodge Blocking), but then you should have been able to block him earlier, before he triggered the Disabled Block BUG on you. And the reason for triggering the Disabled Block BUG is still a mystery, but restraining, forced movement or immobilizing effects seem to have something to do with it. In the video I mentioned I can consistently trigger this BUG during Vader's Choke.

Yes this problem has been posted on the forums since the release of the game. Admins have worded that they are aware of the bug and that they thought it might have been fixed with the last update. However, this doesn't seem to be the case. Let's hope that they can find the cause and fix it in the next update!

Not only that, but Rush tends to go through targets with no damage or block detection. Happens frequently enough to be game-influencing.

I have encountered this problem far too many times. It is mostly the result of being Force Choked, but it can happen from Freeze as well. The only solution is to kill yourself or be hit by a Force power again, which is ridiculous.

What is your issue related to? General
Summarize your bug BUG1: Rey (it only happened to me with Rey) gets her Block ability to stop blocking. It still makes her walk slowly, but the lightsaber don't go to the position it normally goes when blocking, and also it can't block saber attacks or blaster shots. BUG2: All of Rey's (also only happened to me with Rey) abilities stop working, together with not being able to jump. This one usually resets to normal when an enemy villain uses a paralyzing ability on Rey.
What is your gamertag/PSN ID/EA Account name? RogueZeroRendar
How often does the bug occur? Often (50% - 99%)
Can you tell us the date (MM/DD/YYYY) that you saw the bug? Everyday I play
What time did you see the bug? (HH:MM AM/PM) Many times
In what game mode did the bug occur? Heroes vs. Villains
What is your time zone? AGT (BET) - GMT - 3:00
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Just play as Rey in HvV vs Darth Vader, Emperor Palpatine and Kylo Ren and let them use many paralyzing abilities on you (including Palpatine's lightning attack) and try to dodge/block, it'll eventually happen.
What happens when the bug occurs? BUG1: I can't block incoming attacks and it only comes back to normal when I die or respawn. BUG2: All my 3 abilities can't be used, and together with that I can't jump. This one resets to normal when you die/respawn, but also when an enemy villain gets you in a paralyzing move (like Kylo's Freeze ability).
What do you expect to see? At least that it doesn't happen everyday I play. Normally in a single match it happens more then once.

Here are 2 BUGs that I found with Rey from the series of BUGs I've already found playing as Rey in Heroes vs Villains. There is also the lightsaber not turning on, the Hero Stuck in place, and the eternal choke from vader, but those I'll post as other BUGs.
Now when I play I try my best to avoid situations where this bug can happen, making my gameplay worse then it should be, which is very annoying.
The picture attached show the abilities greyer then they should be, and with no buttons indicating what to push. When normal, the abilities are whiter and have their respective buttons shown above them. You can check the full gameplay with my abilities not working in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kdnFsozDsoI
Just go to 10:50 in the video to see this bug in action (it's in the description of the video).
The no blocking BUG I can't easily show as there is no visual indication of it (besides rey walking a bit slower, like when she blocks, but remaining in her normal standing pose, not turning into the blocking pose).

Seen this issue when Kylo uses his freeze when casting something. Locks up nearly everything

It also happens in assault mode with any heroes. Pretty annoying when you use battlepoints. I've also noticed similar bug when you use sentry on heavy assault soldier. You're fat as if you were using the sentry but you don't, it dissapear when you use it again.

Your bug2 in which you couldn't use any of your abilities (they are grey) and you couldn't jump is acknowledged by the admins here. There are already many posts about this issue. In this topic you can read that the admins thought it was fixed in the Crait update but it sadly wasn't. https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/HvV-can-t-use-abilities-after-stun/m-p/6470892#M1710
It seems to happen a lot when you get stunned by an enemy villain. I have encountered this bug many times when playing as a hero. After some other enemy stuns you again (or hit with lightsaber), you are probably freed from the bug. When one of your abilities was in cooldown when the bug occurs, it will complete its animation cycle but when it comes online it will turn grey and you cannot use it anymore.
