PTS 1.5 Bug Compilation

#141014-001973 - I am unable to mount my horse at the North and South Morrowind Gates in Cyrodiil. I receive the "Cannot mount in this location" error. I should be able to mount my horse almost every where in these two locations. This is not a problem on the 1.4.6 live server.

PTS TESTING - WEREWOLF PROBLEMS

Not receiving Stamina increase from passive when transforming into werewolf.

The light attack bleed damage reapplies itself every attack and since it takes time to tick does not actually do any damage unless I stop attacking.

Werewolf still glitches out occasionally when attacking and trying to transform it sometimes wont transform you or you get stuck. Problem can easily be reproduced by simply attacking an enemy and trying to transform while performing another action.

Removal of haste from Werewolf Light attacks results in overall DPS loss no matter what combination of the new skills I attempt. I have tested Multiple combinations and compared my DPS to the live server in werewolf form.

#141014-002095 I can only pick up the Equipment Writ quests (Blacksmithing, Clothing and Woodworking) from the board in Davon's Watch, which is where I picked them up for first time on Monday. Today (Tuesday) none of the equipment writ boards in any of the other cities are active. Only the board in Davon's Watch is active for me. I did not have this problem with the Supplies Writ quests for Alchemy, Enchanting and Provisioning as I picked them up on Monday in Davon's Watch and on Tuesday, I picked them up in Wayrest. I should be able to start the Equipment Writ quests from any Equipment Writ board anywhere in Tamriel.

When you open the map a bunch of towns are not highlighting so that you can click and view them. Some had the click area outside of the town.

The certification quest markers where not above the NPC's heads in the EP. The compass quest marker for the fighters guild NPC disappeared when approaching from a distance. The mages guild NPC would describe the three certifications, but would not give you an option to certify.

#141015-000008 - The Dwemer Scraps drop far too infrequently for EP VR characters. I can't collect these scraps in the EP zones because loot does not drop for VR characters. I am not aware of any Dwemer ruins in the AD zones so I am left with searching the DC VR1-5 zones, namely Bthzark in Stros M'Kai, Yldzuun in Alik'r Desert and Razak's Wheel in Bangkorai. I have killed several hundred Dwemer mobs in these three ruins and I have received a total of 2 scraps - a paltry number considering I need 10 to construct a frame. The Dwemer Gears are dropping like leaves from a tree in autumn; but the Dwemer Scraps are absurdly rare.

Same problem. In my case I had to acquire a Ta Aspect Rune. Already had some in my inventory. Went out and found another one - didn't work. Then put them all in the bank and took them out again - nothing. Looks like this one doesn't work if you already have the item in your inventory.

Thanks so much, everyone. This is super helpful! Just so you know, we're passing all these issues along to the appropriate teams so there are eyes on these. We'll let you know if we need any additional information.

Anjelicus

Veteran Wayrest Sewers: The Lich boss Ability "Summon Spirit";

When he summons his chains it will Instantly deal damage upwards of 3k, and since there is no graphic there is literally no time to move out of them. Also was getting hit by the "Summon Spirit" a good 3-5 seconds AFTER the adds were already up and attacking other members.

Not sure if its the animation graphic is just out of sync or if there is no timer on the damage, because it used to be they would explode and THEN you would take damage but this is not the case atm.

#141015-001415 If you deconstruct a glyph and it gives you a runestone that is requested by the Enchanter Writ, the quest does not recognize the runestone is now in your inventory and the quest does not update.

#141015-001429 Withdrawing a runestone from your bank will not update the Enchanter Writ quest if it requires that runestone.

#141015-001433 Buying back a runestone which had been sold to a vendor does not update the Enchanter Writ quest, either.

#141013-001580 - The wording on the reward screen for the Alchemist Writ quest for my VR14 Level 50 Alchemist contains some clunky use of the word "bit" in two consecutive sentences which do not read well together. The second sentence would read better if "bit" was changed to "while" or something similar. http://i.imgur.com/2Va37lq.png

And if the first one was changed to "bitten".

"Damned new arrivals, always getting bitten and bleeding all over my supplies. Guess this will hold them a while."

Besides, using "bit" in the first instance is grammatically incorrect, only "bitten" works there (in dictionary-standard usage); although that could also be a bit (< unintentional) of insight into the personality of the writer. But I agree in this case it would make more sense to just reword it.

Neither the heal on Momentum/Rally from the 2h line nor the damage-over-time component on Poison Arrow (and morphs) are capable of critically hitting.

Momentum/Rally's heal is glorious, and the only thing holding it back is its inability to crit. Give it weapon crit rating to calculate with, and you'll make this patch worth all the hard times for 2h users.

Poison Arrow's damage-over-time component being unable to critically hit is just long overdue for a change.

With a buff to the damage of this component of the ability, as well as a buff to the Poison Injection morph which is centered around the damage-over time component, it's really necessary for this new and improved ability to be working at full capacity.

If it can't crit, then it's still not really worth using. If it could crit, it would be a serious contender against just using Venom Arrow. Many would even say preferable.

We should be very carefull on the stambuilds after the harness magicka nerf.
I got a bad feeling about this.

It "works" you just have to foolishly split the stack to the correct number needed for the quest.

I agree, we certainly should be careful about the stam/magicka imbalance in general.

I've got a bad feeling about a sudden explosion of stamina builds too, but I don't think that should hold the devs back from fixing some clearly broken abilities.

Maybe afterwards, some rebalancing of numbers on said abilities might be necessary. But I see no reason not to fix what is broken in the meantime. I don't see simply ignoring it as an option.

Wolfshade

Same problem then on the Live-Server since 1.3.4!

Cannot reach the charakterscreen. After the login in the loading screen, the game stops, the circle is turning and turning and turning. Nothing happens and helps. Did all the workarounds wich helps me to login on the liveserver. The german support doesn`t react. Seems i wont see 1.5

Werewolf

Perhaps this is a bit overkill, but i dare to post here a reminder too:

Some of us tested WW.
I personaly have to say, that it feels better and it`s clearly visible, that the devs hat put in some great work. Thank you Zenimax!

There are some bugs who need fixing however.
For example there is a graphical bug, where you can see four eyes in your face
And some Skills and passives don`t work. (For example the synergy with your partymember, improving your Weaponattacks).

I just post my personal feedback and a compilation of other trheads with bugs mentioned.
Just check it out:

Hey Guys

I updated the List of Links and shortened my monstrous posts. The newest Threads are on the bottom quoted extra.

It would like to mention, that i am an EU player and had no problems wit PTR Presets (Altough, i d like to have some mats to craft sets).
But for everyone, who wasn`t on the PTR; You should realy try it out. You can create a vet 14 character and directly play as a wolf, since you have every skill at the maximum.
If you get crashed after character creation, just wait and restart. Then you can log in to the game. Have patience, it takes some time for the loading screen. That seems to be normal.

This thread is about the idea of a WW disguise, so, that you can wear the skin all the time.
This thread gave me some new ideas about steering mechanism for WW trough disguise. I more an more like my idea about the safezones/safespots, where your WW-timer stops (like the shrine of hircine).

WW Bleed is worthless in its current state. Move it to a heavy attack or make it so it doesnt refresh on every light attack used.

#141017-001425 If you are at a crafting station and you craft the final item needed for the writ, you do not receive a message on screen telling you to deliver your crafted goods to the requested location. I must look at my journal to determine what to do. A delivery message should always flash on screen.

#141017-001497 Klathzgar in VR5 Bangkorai is exhibiting the empty containers problem that has plagued other areas in the DC zones (namely in Wayrest in Stormhaven). I entered the delve and every single jug, pot and urn defaulted to empty. I logged off and logged in again and some of them became populated with contents while many others did not. In some rooms, every container was empty upon logging in which I did a few times.

After getting certified, my character picked up a clothier writ. She's level 15 and knows how to make things with jute. Her writ was for making things with linen so she can't complete it.

Has anyone got templates to work yet? I've tried to make 4 different VR characters and just keep getting an error.

Yeah, it seems like the writ quests are currently based on character level and not on the level of crafted goods you can actually make. This is probably the biggest bug in the game so far related to the crafted writs.

When running in werewolf form outside of combat I'm still just running on two legs instead of all fours. Can anyone confirm?

leeux

A very minor thing I noticed while testing tonight (but annoying ):
** When the character has an active food buff (didn't tested with drink buff) each time you zone in to a new area, the eat animation is repeated. I.e. in the transition Auridon -> Harborage, when the character lands into the Harborage, it plays the eat animation.

EDIT: typos

Thejollygreenone

Whatever you did to the Twin Sisters cyrodiil set, do THAT to the werewolf bleed. 100% proc chance (it says 20% but its bugged) and refreshes on hit rather than a second or so after.

If anyone who blocks can have a bleed so strong by wearing a medium armor set, I think werewolf should too

The 'when outside of combat' phrasing is a bit misleading. I'll explain once more:

You know how when in human form, you can either have your weapon in your hands and are in a 'in combat' stance, or you can have it on your back?

For the sake of this explanation we'll just call the in combat stance having your weapon(s) 'unsheathed', and when your weapon is on your back/hips therefore it would be having your weapons 'sheathed'.

Well, so too in werewolf form do we abide by this mechanic. While the positioning of your weapons (claws) remains the same in both stances, there is still a phase-shift of in-combat stance to out-of-combat stance and vice versa.

So anytime you notice you're not sprinting on all fours, you just have to hit the weapon sheathing toggle key ('Z' by default) and so long as you're not fighting anything you will be switched to a stance where you will sprint on all fours as desired.

Hope this clears things up.

Another minor annoyance:
** The setting switches for new FPS and Latency indicators are not persistently saved (I /BUGged this on PTS)

Tiruviel

Millenith says something quite different than the text for the initial crafting quest. What she actually says (audio) is typed in my guild window chat.
