Death By Crowbar 1213 Posted June 17, 2015 Trying to see what my options are. I log in, was completely healthy before, now a sprained ankle. Tried a splint - no dice. Any way to get relief from a sprained ankle? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
too-easy 56 Posted June 17, 2015 Only a guess:It might go away after some time.Can you still run/sprint?Maybe in the future you can't run anymore with a sprained ankle and the chance of breaking the foot gets higher. Would be nice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bororm 1156 Posted June 17, 2015 I had a sprained ankle the other day, from jumping off one of those two story sandbag bunkers with the netting. I tried morphine and a splint as well to no effect. I had healing status, and either due to that or simply relogging it was gone the next time I played. It seemed to have no ill effects on me while it was up, though my assumption was that maybe you'd be closer to breaking your legs with it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

phoboss 224 Posted June 17, 2015 Go find a bush, take out your axe, gather some wood, so you get wooden sticks. combine those with a duct tape, a bandage or some rags and create a wooden splint. use that to "cure" your ankle. morphine works as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Neither worked for me as stated, and the splint didn't work for the OP. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Evil Minion 943 Posted June 17, 2015 I got this at some point after running around, jumping and dropping form very low heights (that did not do any noticable damage). Whatever the reason I was able to cure it using a splint - or at least the indicator disappeared. You may try a splint again or it actually did work but did not show until relog.

randomspawn 215 Posted June 17, 2015 Def a lot of bugged status stuff now. I've had sessions where I would drink 10 bottles of water and still be just dark green hydrated. Log out and back in later, and boom, status updates and I vomit everywhere. Ooh, nasty! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Incorrect. I used a splint, then I tried a second actually, neither did anything. The ankle remained sprained. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
too-easy 56 Posted June 17, 2015 Did you log out and in again to make sure it's not just a status bug? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Death By Crowbar 1213 Posted June 17, 2015 So yeah, to bring this to closure - nothing I tried would fix it. After logging in again a few hours later the status is gone. I guess it was just a status bug? Or maybe it healed up? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
