Stam drain bug

Krymsyn_Panda · September 2023

A new bug introduced with u39: on occasion my stam starts automatically draining repeatedly, not allowing me to use any stam skills or actions (roll dodge etc). This is incredibly detrimental to my gameplay obviously. I can usually fix it by roll dodging (similar to the multiple past stam bugs the game has has). What makes this one worse however, is since it is constantly draining my stam after recovery, I have to hope my stam gets high enough to allow me to do a dodge roll, and I have to do that in the small window before it drains again. A video of this happening to me this morning:

I play on PC NA using a controller with the controller UI.

@ZOS_GinaBruno @ZOS_Kevin Please pass this onto the team as it prevents me from playing the game. Any confirmation that this has been seen would be greatly appreciated. My ticket number is 230914-003949

I believe I know the issue. From my experience it is caused by holding down sprint button after your stamina is depleted. Then you get stuck in this loop where you can’t heavy attack or dodge or anything as it keeps draining.

I found that by stopping my actions, then sprinting again after I get a little stamina I was able to make the stamina work as normal.

So in short, don’t sprint until you are out of stamina or else the bug happens.

@Krymsyn_Panda another thing I noticed is when the bug occurs I am stuck sprinting even when not hitting the sprint button on my controller.
