When I use Last Seed Salad level 10 blue food my magicka and stamina bars always remain visible regardless of options choices or combat status. If I remove the effect they vanish.

    I guess that is a way to know the food is still active. Wish buffs had a timer somewhere on screen to see.

    I'm fairly certain it's a bug. It doesn't happen when I use food which increase health only. Also considering the developer's obsession with a minimal interface having two giant blue and green bars on the screen would not overlooked.

    How do I submit a bug report on PS4?

    This issue is driving me crazy. Not using food because of it.

    Many players have now confirmed this issue with all food on PS4 yet this is missing from the issues thread? It was not in today's patch notes.

    The problem does not occur on PC so I can only assume it is not intended.

    Can we get a Zenimax statement on the issue?

    I view this as a positive, as the game lacks any kind of buff icons (one of many standard MMO features missing from the MMO known as ESO).

    It would be very nice if the bars were a little less ginormous, though. I get that it's a console so it will have a consolified UI, but why can't there be a simple scaling option to unconsolify it?

    Dude, calm down. The bars are shown and as you can see it's showing you that your HP, Magica, or Stamina are increasing. It's not a bug.

    The nature of consoles is that the flexibility of the UI is not the same as a PC with addons.

    Very few who only play console are complaining, it appears to be mostly those who have played PC versions of MMORPGs who expect the UI flexibility built in.

    WoW over time has adopted some of the features of UI addons .... if Zenimax is smart it will adjust the UI of ESO based on what the player base wants
    Everyone knows the phenomenon of trying to hold your breath underwater - how at first it's alright and you can handle it, and then as it gets closer and closer to the time when you must breathe, how urgent the need becomes, the lust and the hunger to breathe. And then the panic sets in when you begin to think that you won't be able to breathe - and finally, when you take in air and the anxiety subsides...that's what it's like to be a vampire and need blood.
