    Did you have any Stamina? No Stamina, little to no block mitigation. Especially as you say, you were Dodge Rolling around, that sucks up the Stamina reserves.

    Which is why I don't roll Stamina based characters. Stamina is used for avoiding attacks, Magic is used to make an attack. Well, I have one Stamina character just for grins, but I keep wanting to put him back into Magic.....
    Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.

    I think this is down to lag on server side. I've had whole days where dodge rolling wouldn't help anything. Elden Hollow was hell without dodge roll one day. The next it worked as expected. This was quite some time ago, but when the actions of two clients (or more) need to be synched server-side, I think performance issues in Cyrodiil causes this pretty often.

    Yeah i think it was due to lag.

    I hit one guy and he broke my stun as soon as i hit him, it literally all happened in half a second on screen.

    Lag and squishy are not a good combo.

    It's funny watching other people pvp on YouTube. i think connection helps a lot.


    I'm playing on TB in the early hours US time and there were about 10 around.

    Doesn't bode well for mass pvp.
