Does your X look like this?
if it does it should work to both loot and interact during combat and when surrounded by mobs.
If there's another icon then it will not work, and even if you haven't specifically bound anything to X on purpose, it will i.e automatically equip a skill from a weapon if you equip one.
I got 700 something hours played on PS5, and I've been running ALOT of trials and I do not have the issues you're talking about.
But I agree it's not a great priority to not have interact as the #1 function when you're near loot/interactable object if a skill is also bound to the interact button. H zzz

If you mapped an Attack to X button , you certainly can't interact with the X button during combat because you'll attack instead .

So don't map anything on X .

Tell me you don't play Poe2 on console without telling me you don't play.

[Removed by Support] On console for example PS5, you cannot interact with any object if the mobs are around you or you are in fight, you can't pick up any dropped items neither does not matter how you mapped your interaction button.

Its a common issue players experiencing on console.

For your information, the button X on PS5 is configured out of the box to interact within the game, this button is not mapped to any attack skills

No my X button does not look like that. My X button does not have any attack spells assigned, how many times do I have to repeat this?. My X button on my pad is only for Object interactions (Activating maps, entering portal, picking up dropped items, etc). No attack spells assigned

That is how your X button looks by default when you create a character and how it should look for it to act like you want it to. Assign interact to X and make it look like that. Once you do than your problem will be solved.
