Permastuns since 1T?

NBrookus · November 2016

Since 1T dropped, I've encountered numerous episodes of being permastunned - not able to CC break or dodge roll even with sufficient stam, not able to mistform even with magicka, not able to even bar swap, move, drink a potion or pick up synergies. (Or open doors!). Character is standing upright and not knocked down. I haven't been able to identify the culprit or combo, because it's usually happening when I am getting zerged down and getting hit by numerous skills at once. It feels a bit like the old stacking bombard snare.

Aside from the occasional unbreakable fear, I can't recall these symptoms happening to me before. Is anyone else experiencing this lately?

Yes you have proc sets that cc and the usual CC's stacking when attacks fire too quickly now .

I can't break cc literally half of the time even in duels. It's just so unresponsive

I have times when I use a skill or break free and it doesn't respond immediately or requires me to mash the button. I want to say it's related to the routine disconnects that happen near midnight PDT (-7). Sometimes I'm just cut from the game, sometimes it recovers after a few seconds, but it's MUCH worse in highly populated areas. It makes me feel like a total scrub when my fingers trip over each other when it happens during PvP.

It's occurred to me it might be stacking CCs. TBH, most of the time it has happened my chances of surviving were really low unless there was a friendly healer hiding behind that nearby rock, so it hasn't bothered me too much other than being an annoyance. My concern is more if there is a specific combo triggering it, it will be exploited left and right.

Yes there is a major problem with CC immunity and netcode in this game, there always has been but lately it does seem worse.

I've been bug-rooted twice since 1T.

Group kills someone. I get rooted. We kill the guys, and Five minutes later, out of combat. I'm still crawling.

Ten minutes later. Still crawling. Did not reenter combat. Can't keep up with group, friends think it's hilarious in TS. I call a horse. Still crawling on horseback.

I finally went and found someone to kill me so that I could res without it the root. I've never been so thankful to die to a gankblade before.

Hmmm. I've been locked into slow-mo before, have to completely relog to get rid of it. Never thought it was combat related but it did always occur in Cyrodiil. That predates 1T tho.

Yes, we've experienced this, too. Our whole group even got wiped to this the other day. We've got some theories. Thinking it might be related to one of the new monster sets. We might do some testing to figure it out. But yes, plenty of stam, plenty of magicka....and you can neither mist or break free. Just stuck and helpless.

Is it me... or does it seem with each dlc update etc it's as if they are using the old "base" code for the game, implement it, and then gotta go back and re fix the old issues?

I get this feeling because the game is always working at it's best, for me, right before one of these drops and then it's back to where it was when the last thing dropped?

Delete the part where you said "fix old issues" and you're just about right.

I PVPed last night got in a fight with a stamblade and a magsorc for a good 5 minutes.The NB ran away so I flight the sorc he sorc ported away and I chased after him and my movement was snared than half way across the map it turns out I was feared an finally got the animation for it.It was weird I could still DPS the sorc but the NB was where I was originally and just did the fear animation.

Breaking free from CC has been in various stages of being broken for a good 2 years now. Just like many other bugs, consider them features at this stage.

ZOS is just ZOS, ancient word that means 'terrible'.

LuminaLilly · November 2016

I had the same problem. But then some wise old sage gave me a tip on instantly cc breaking, given u have the stamina. Only on Xbox one. This shocks NBs who spam fear.

As soon as your cced

Step 1: HOLD the left trigger

Step 2: continuously tap the right trigger all the way down.

Step 3: ?????

Step 4: PROFIT.

"HOW DOES A SORC CC BREAK SOO MUCH RRRARRRGH NERF SORCS NERF SORCS TAKE OFF MINES"

ArcaneKaithel · November 2016

So, people know that certain sets cause a CC lock....and still use them. Another wonderful one that Nightblades are using CC locks you on your mount, no matter how much stam you have. You're basically stuck like that until you die. This shouldn't just fall to ZoS to fix, if you're a player and you're using any of the known glitched skills, it's your job to not use them. Otherwise, it's known as Exploiting.

Wrobel implemented passive animation cancelling, so your CC/knockdown animation doesnt play properly anymore.

Just do PVE. PVP is simply a pita and not worth speaking about.

Lava_Croft · November 2016

Just had 4 occasions within 5 minutes where breaking free from CC was impossible even though Stamina was full, frame rate 40+ and latency below 100ms.

At this point ALT+F4 would be the only sensible solution if it wasn't for ESO not properly closing itself and lingering around in my 16GB of RAM.

Youll notice a split second of lag after hitting or being hit with multiple procs at once.
