there's a video on youtube @SGXHQ about 5 minutes long it should tell in more detail

Please, try reinstalling the tablet driver or resetting the tablet driver settings. From your description, it sounds like https://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=281&t=163518, for instance. There have been other reports of blobby or dotty lines, but they came down to driver problems, not bugs in Krita.

A note about making bug reports: a link to a video is much easier to follow, but it would be better to supply the information in the bug report:

* Attach a screenshot
* Tell us exactly what hardware you have (computer, display, tablet)
* What version the driver is
* What version of Krita you're using
* The results of testing your pen with the tablet tester (settings->configure Krita->tablet->tablet tester)
* And possibly the contents of help->system information for bug reports.

So I switched to (windows ink) in tablet settings and not ITS WORKING. For those of you who are wondering, I have a dell inspiron 15.6 and I’m useing a xp pen artist 12 pro. I appreciate the quick replies and the support, I was literally at it for hours trying to figure out how to fix it

Wth so my previous comment said it’s not working I meant it’s WORKING. Sorry.

Ok, thanks! 
Please next time in case of an issue like this when you see that Krita cannot be used at all, so it's surprising other people can use it fine, please go to krita-artists.org to get help because it's often because of the system or configuration.
