Orsinium Bugs - XB1 NA

OmniDevil · November 2015

1) House/Building just north west of Orsinium (outside of the walls), there is a Quest NPC stuck in the floor on the second story of the building. No possible way of getting to him/her. *a simple relog resolved this issue*

2) Non-Vet Maelstrom Arena: Stranglers are teleporting/launching you across the map (ie. one grabs you, pulls you to it, then you get rubberbanded back to where you were previously). If I'm not mistaken, this was reported (fixed?) on PC.

3) Constant crashes. Sometimes every 5 minutes, very intermittent, however. This primarily happens why interacting with a crafting table. Occasionally happens when using a wayshrine, talking to an npc or interacting with other objects, such as backpacks, wardrobes, etc.

4) Random dismounting while mounted (not native to Orsinium, has been happening since the last patch/update Pre-Orsinium DLC).

5) Templar, Toppling Charge: On even ground (no obstacles in the path and not on lower/higher elevation), skill glitches out, never executes (notice this primarily in the Old Orsinium public dungeon).

6) Not all gear can be deconstructed. Primarily Ancient Orc style quest reward armor pieces (not sure if this is intended or not).

7) Mercenary Motifs always show as "Use to add to your library" even when you already know the chapter. Makes it difficult to determine what you still need when obtaining one from an Undaunted Chest or looking through Guild Traders.

8) While having multiple people fish in one fishing hole works in any other zone, it doesn't in Wrothgar. With 3 or more in one spot, no fish are caught at any time, not even used bait is received. As soon as there are 2 or less, fish can be caught again (this was tested using correct bait based on the body of water).

9) (Though not necessarily a bug and RNG is RNG) Knowing 9 of 14 Mercenary Chapters, I've only ever obtained 1 (one) Laurel during Veteran Dungeons, while a friend received one every vet dungeon run, back to back while only knowing 1 chapter. Is it possible this may be bugged?

These are all I've run into, personally, or have been reported by a friend/guild member. I'll update this as I come across others (hopefully nothing further!)

*EDIT: Added additional bugs/findings, #7-9

I have had random crashes since Orsinium update as well and it isnt limited to just Orsinium.

Also have had some very long load times, even when major cities including Orsinium are Not hardly populated.

Although crashes aren't native to Orsinium, they were very infrequent enough to note that the recent flooding of them came with Orsinium or at least something related to it.

Further, long load times have been happening since Imperial City was released. They were "mostly fixed" on PC, which consoles should be getting in the next patch/update. This was the only reason why I didn't list them here.

When is the last time you guys did a hard reset?
Because of the latest update of the game AND the X1 dashboard update it's prob best to give that a try.

-Hold the Xbox logo on the console (not the controller) until the console shuts off.
Wait.....a minute....cut it back on and play.

I say this because I haven't experienced any of the mentioned issues so while it's very likely that's it's a ZOS bug, I only offering an idea just in case it's not.

Thanks for the advice, but that's definitely not the issue. I do hard resets once a week and especially right after a major game update/patch. Again, my original intention of this thread wasn't to point out long load times or crashes.

If you're referring to not "experiencing any of these issues" in reference to long load times, I don't buy it. Even PC players were complaining about that (from what I understand, that has been improved/resolved and a fix for consoles is coming shortly). Otherwise, the crashes for me only started happening since Orsinium hit. Additionally, I've had the Xbox Dashboard update for the last month and a half, thanks to the preview program, so I can definitely rule that out as well (at least for me).

I'd rather not water down the point of this thread, which is to provide ZOS a list of experienced bugs/glitches with Orsinium, in the event they aren't aware or have been reported, by talking about crashes and what's causing them. I do, however, appreciate the advice.

Only complaint I have for Orsinium is the loading screens that pop up fairly frequently in the city itself. Gets annoying waiting 30-60 seconds, playing for 10-15 seconds and then it all starts over again. Sometimes characters don't load on time, or environments. Again, nothing huge and definitely more playable than when this game was first released, but needs to be fixed.

A new issue I have in Orsinium is the new areas trophy items getting bound to my character so I can't unload them.

Another funny glitch is when I use the two-handed wrecking blow move I can put an enemy through a wall, which is actually handy when getting swarmed, because it takes the enemy out of the fight.
