Known Issues for Update 5

demonlkojipub19_ESO · November 2014

Gonna have to say this again, for the like 100th time, Siege weapons still aren't stacking to 5 as mentioned in the 1.1.2 patch notes. been waiting quite a while for this to be made a reality.

Siege equipment can be stacked to five in the inventory (with the exception of forward camps and mercenary contracts).

@ZOS_GinaBruno‌ :

After the last patch, 1.5.4, are our UI's suppose to show 1M til next level or 4M?

From what I have heard you lowered it to 1million, but my UI isn't showing that at all. It still shows it as needing 4million XP to next level.

I don't use any add-ons.

Read the patch notes.. the UI will show upto 4,000,000 but will tick over to the next rank when it hits 1,000,000. The UI will be repaired later.

Cannot enter fighter s guild in elden root -

Am I alone with this problem ?

Rasimir · November 2014

@ZOS_GinaBruno I am missing the ongoing performance and stability problems in Cyrodiil in the list of known issues. Are you even aware of it, and are you investigating?

For example, I was playing on Thornblade EU yesterday. For about an hour between 21:00 MET to 22:00 MET almost every fight for a keep lagged badly. People didn't die, doors didn't work, skills didn't activate. You can stand inmidst an enemy raid without healing yourself and try to cast spells for 10 minutes. We had a mass crash (server crash?) once during that period, lots of people in my group as well as other groups got disconnected simultanously. One Keep didn't switch colours for 15 minutes or more although our alliance had lots of People in there.

Things like this happen every evening.

I turned on the latency Display and it varied widely. lowest I saw was about 88 ms, going up to 999+.

This one hour was one of the worst experiences I had in ESO since beta.

Please tell us how we can help to finally resolve these problems, perhaps give us some diagnostics / tracing abilities to get more info about what goes on, or any other instructions what we can do to help you.

Don't ask how WE can resolve these problems because it isn't us. The day they finally lower the pop cap or fix their servers is when this lag will go away. The problem lessens the less players are present, stable at between 2 and 3 bars of pop each. locked pops = server disaster all the time.

Another update...and still no word. Please respond.

Can you please confirm if the Patch Notes are written incorrectly, or if the Absorb change didn't get put in as written in the notes?

Per Patch Note:
Absorb (Defensive Posture morph): This ability now absorbs 100% of damage caused, and also heals for 15% of your maximum health.

In Game:
Absorb Magic (Defensive Posture morph): Absorbs 100% of Next Spell Projectile and heals for 15% of your maximum health.

There is a world of difference between what the patch notes imply and what is currently in game. If this is not a bug, please let us know so we don't expect something else.

You should. The addons actually show the correct amount. It would be funny if it wasn't sad. You will still level up at 1mil despite what the UI says.

I can confirm that it's still really bad. Maybe you guys need to lower the max occupancy and add an additonal instance? I'm not sure, but latency and freezing impact the game in a significant way.

Third patch since UPDATE5 and still no actions about soundFX fix?!? Are you kidding? We want our sounds back NOW!

Hey @Merrak, apologies for the delay. For the first issue, this is just a typo in the patch notes, which we'll fix now. The note was for Absorb Magic, not Absorb. For the second issue, this is something we're aware of and are fixing. The bug affects all those abilities so once it's addressed, they should all be fixed.

Enodoc · November 2014

@ZOS_GinaBruno - the following fixes were listed in the 1.5.3 Patch Notes, but aren't recorded as part of the actual partial release of 1.5.3, nor patches 1.5.4 or 1.5.5. Could you confirm whether they were actually included in the partial release, or if they have been delayed to a later patch? Thanks!

Thank you for the update @ZOS_GinaBruno‌.

I was hoping the Absorb thing was real, dreams shattered.

I would like to see a comment from any @ZOS admins about Enchanting Survey: Craglorn III (drops only III, but it seems noone saw I or II).

Mavrick24 · November 2014

Any update on the group finder tool? I haven't done any group dungeons since the update due to this issue as I don't enjoy spamming the zone chat.

ZOS_GinaBruno · November 2014

Not yet, @Maverick24. The team is still trying to nail down the exact issues and how to address them.

@ZOS_GinaBruno
The Restoration staff ability "Regeneration" and its morphs still fail to heal pets. This has been bugged since 1.5.2.
Pet bugs were the first bugs reported when 1.5.2 went live and though there has been responses to several other issues we still haven't seen a response or acknowledgement regarding this one.

Can we get a response that it is at least being looked into?
Or is it being ignored because it only affects Sorcerers?

Sir_Xalvador · November 2014

will be a fix for the way you walk after looting a container or get detected so you dont walk funny?

smee_z · November 2014

Quicksand in Myrkwasa Dolmen in Alik'r. You'll see NPCs at the start walk to the center front but slowly sinking like they are walking down a stair. Attacked mobs in the Dolmen and several times, after a Critical Charge, I would sink half underground and eventually got stuck. Had to do /stuck to get out of it.

@ZOS_GinaBruno
This actually seems to be ALL the Dolmens in Alik'r Desert, they all seem to start at the edge and take an invisible flight of stairs into the ground. Filed two bug reports, we'll see if they notice :P

Ashtaris · November 2014

I don't think the Dolmen problem is area specific. I got stuck in a Dolmen when I was in Bangkorai. It was annoying to be watching all the fighting around me but I couldn't do squat except watch. The only way I was able to get out of the hole was to do a /stuck.

Not fixed, I was running in AA last night and someone fired up Repentance, I now have black blotches. I have done /bug and reported.

Green fish caught outside Craglorn still only sell for 0 gold. I hate to flog a dead horse fish but it's been like that since the patch that actually let loot rare fish.

MasterSpatula · November 2014

@ZOS_GinaBruno, any word on falling through the ground at Dark Anchors and in the Mannimarco fight, a bug that seems to have been introduced with 1.5.5?
