    Thursday night vCR training group. Nocturnal's favor... had 4 where the block bug occurred but I had enough health/shield to survive. Had 5 where I died.

    Dear ZOS - PLEASE FIX THIS. 13 pulls. 9 unblocked heavy attacks, 5 upstairs tank deaths. Your game is killing the team.

    Did vCR0 again. Only had three block bug deaths this week during the Z'maja fight. Had a few with the minis, though. I wish someone from ZOS other than ICY was reading my posts. Would be really nice if, when working through hard content, I did not get killed by bugs in the game I want badly to enjoy playing.

    And sadly, it never will.

    So, vCR prog night again. We did a +0 where I had 5 unblocked heavy deaths, one of which might have been me. Then we did vCR+1. I had 12 unlocked heavy, 2 were my fault. I'm considering quitting the game, since I really prefer tanking and simply cannot do my job like this. I've stopped recording video, because it tells the same old story. Every. Single. Time.

    It's been six months since I first reported this bug and I have exactly ZERO indication that anyone is looking into it. I am really disappointed with the dev/support team.

    We have the same problems with the block bug. Not just in Vcr but all raids. Have many Video proofs of my char being obviously in block, but I still get one shot by a heavy. Also, heals do not respond many times. No matter how much I heal my self or the healers try, my bar doesnt go up and I die at the end. Yesterday was the worst when even all my attacks turned dark and I coudnt press anything despite my spot. This game is full of bugs right now, no one seems to care about, that makes tanking hell. Tanking is no fun anymore, and I really consider canceling my subscription and leaving my raid group and this game for good. @ZOS_GinaBruno

    Sorry to bother you all, but is there any way to know if there is any status for this issue (including, as disappointing as it would be "not a high enough impact bug to schedule resources against")? I can still easily repro the lack of blocking while holding block for any instant cast on any character at any PC I sit down to (there are harder repro cases which are likely the same underlying issue).

    I kinda wish this were an actual bug tracker, so I could see assigned status/priority/severity... Some million posts earlier in this thread, Kevin said he would look into the in game bug reports I created (mentioned elsewhere in the thread which had been closed with "Thanks for the feedback"). I hadn't heard anything support/bug related since.

    I've provided more video and information than I ever get when I have to deal with a bug reported from a live title, so I really hope you've been able to reproduce the issue. If I thought I would ever be in the neighborhood (I'm not - different coast, different country) I would offer to drop in... repro only takes a second.

    I don't play a lot anymore, and I doubt anything will repair that, but occasionally I find myself wishing for closure here. I cared a lot back when I first posted this.

    Hope the holidays are kind and quiet (and lacking in data center power outages, etc).

    Just a note to remind/clarify; if it is not an instant then it does NOT show the issue. Even arcanist flail with a 0.3 cast time does not show the issue.

    When I was running my guild`s Friday trial event, from what was happening to me was just lag. I would block and a couple of seconds I would finally block. As far as having a block up and the enemy still damaging me, I was good.
