CC Break and Bash. Big issue.

olsborg

If you bash alot between rotations in pvp and you happen to get cced , you cant break the cc or the ccbreak is slow (1-2s)
If you bash just once in pvp and you happen to get cced within the same cooldown, you cant break cc or it will take 1-2s before you can actually break the cc. This can be replicated with ease, and should be fixed asap pls. Gamebreaking for pvp.

Hope this gets more attention. This has been an issue for a very... very long time.

This happens to me literally every single day and often multiple times per day.

It's easy to reproduce. Walk up to any Cyrodiil resource and start bashing the guards and you'll get a Telekinetic Disorient debuff that stuns (the bubble stun). If your bash fires just at the right time, it's impossible to break free from the stun.

I've also had this happen to me 2-3 times on the spider boss Lady Malygda in the Arboretum District in IC. She does a stun with an infinite duration that eventually kills you if you don't break free. If your bash lands right as she stuns, you're stuck in a permastun and can't break free. If you're soloing this boss, you're probably dead because porting to Cyrodiil isn't fast enough.

It can happen when fighting players as well. If your bash lands close enough to a cc then bash doesn't break free and you'll be cc'd for the full duration. It's kind of embarrassing because the enemy player(s) think you mismanaged your stamina and didn't have enough resource to break free. But you were at 100% stamina and just couldn't break free because your bash landed too close to when the cc landed.

Please fix.

Just slot Escapists Poison IX on your weapon and you will automatically break free and become immune to CC for 4.4 seconds on a 10 second cooldown. And you can proc it while holding block or taking any direct damage within 7 meters if you slot the Cutting Defense CP.

RoA breaks a players ability to break free when combined with any other CC in the game. All you can do is stand there and die. Free pull sets should never, ever, under any circumstances have been introduced into a PvP game.

While we're on this topic, I noticed someone in Cyrodiil a couple of nights ago using the DK chain pull and combining that with the Undaunted Fear. Somehow the pull from chains didn't invoke a cooldown in time that the fear didn't work. So they'd just hang with their group and constantly spam chains until it hit and them immediately cast the fear for what was basically an unavoidable double CC. Needless to say, once you git hit by the double whammy everyone with them was free to get a hit in while you just knelt there and took it.

If we're gutting our damage with Unbreakable poisons that only have a 20% chance to fire, why not go full goober and run Assassin's Guile as well? Now we won't be able to kill anything but at least we'll be mostly immune to cc but not 100%.

Or ZOS could fix the game so we don't need silly workarounds

Well I guess if your damage is "gutted" by relying on an enchantment with a cooldown, and you think that being "stuck in a permastun and can't break free" is preferable, then I don't know what to say. At least the Escapists poison will root your opponent, so it has offensive uses. And I'm all for ZOS fixing the game.... but we all know how productive waiting around for that to happen is.

Well, the point is to get a real fix, not a workaraound while sacrificing something else.

Here's a bug report I submitted. It seems to be getting worse. Not sure if it's because Cyrodiil is laggy lately or what. It's a game breaking bug when it happens.
