Why Are My Skills Grayed Out in the Game?

-

I’ve been playing almost every day and consider myself fairly experienced, though not a hardcore gamer. While I was playing with my son, who is a longtime player, all my skills except for skill number two went gray. I can still mount and fast travel to the city, and I’ve already tried restarting my computer. I even checked out other characters, but they’re also grayed out. I’ve reviewed the key assignments and looked for answers on Reddit and Google. Can anyone offer some advice on what might be going wrong?

It’s pretty strange! What specific skills are you trying to use? And is this happening with other characters too?

ConsoleViking -

Just curious, are you playing on PC or console?

I’m on PC.

Did you forget to re-equip your weapon? Sometimes it’s easy to miss, and you might have weapons in both slots. Double-check that!

Blush… my weapon… fixed it!

Haha, I did that once too! Always check your gear.

First off, check if your skills other than the second one require a resource to use. If you’re out of resources, that would explain why they’re grayed out. Also, it might help to post a screenshot of what you’re seeing—sometimes visual clues help a lot!

Ah! That makes sense. I had the same issue once when I ran low on resources.
