After 2.1.4 update I'm experiencing the bug with my UI: When I click on any item in my inventory it usually appears the tooltip that allows you to compare the stats of this item and the item of your gear (let's say I've clicked on some ring). The problem is that the tooltip with description of the item lockated in my inventory window is superimposed on the tooltip of the item of the gear making it impossible to read. This bug disappears when I "reloadui" but after some time appears consistently.

Thank you! I added that for now but I'd like to know if you made sure it's not an AddOn causing this issue?

I'm not quite sure about it. But I can say that I updated every addon I have to the current patch version. I'll try to check the default settings in the evening and then give you a feedback.

Thank you very much @Xantaria (and anyone who contributes) for your effort. I never knew why some of my calculations just didnt seem to be correct until I saw that "Agility" bug.

Very informative and I hole Zenimax does /lurk

According to Combat Scrolling text this little issue is still coming up from months ago, now that I am back playing casually.

Nightblade: Sap Essence And Evasion
-Use Blur(Or morphs), then spam Sap essence(You don't need a target)
Occasionally, using FTC combat log, You'll get a dodge prompt and evade the self heal portion of the skill.

On a different Nightblade I activated Double Take and let Rally + Vigor tick for over 2 minutes and never got a dodge prompt.

Doge.. Dodge.. Hm..
Edit: You also begin to generate ultimate when you doge like this.

Fecius · September 2015

Relax! Fixing everything needs some time. And meanwhile you can continue kill daedra!

Personally I'm scared of new slow interactions with dodgeroll. It's punishing like hell now - better slow walk than 3 useless dodgerolls.

@Xantaria Should this list include:

Being kicked out of game for no reason back to login screen
When logging out of a character (toon swapping) being kicked out of IT and sent to Rivenspire?

Those are client / server issues not gameplay related stuff and I kinda want to keep everything gameplay related.

I knew this but simply forgot about it. Thanks for the reminder!

I'll put it into Exploits because it's mainly used to generate Ultimate.

Charging Maneuver
http://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/comment/2173468/#Comment_2173468

seldomly works for me.. haven't tried since IC since I used the free respec to get rid of it.

Shuffle + Cloak visual bug

reported on PTS beginning august, still present in IC live:
http://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/207037/quick-cloak-shuffle

will be a major problem for Console players once they get IC, since they don't get addons to help them keep track like we do.

In-combat bug

Needs no explaining... present for >1 year.
With IC patch, DW now has major brutality available, so I'm not using Rally anymore and that certainly helps as HoT's are the major source of this problem.

I noticed since I moved away from Rally (2H heal and Major Brutality buff) and use Vigor now, since the HOT is quick (5 sec's), because of this I don't really get the In-Combat bug anymore, or that it's much, much less noticeable. Being a Nightblade and trying to escape is much easier now since the "In-Combat bug" in the past has gotten me killed alot when I couldn't get back to Sneak.

Added. The in Combat bug is still very present for healers of course.

bumping this for visibility. The Agility bug with medium armor is absolutely killing my Stam DK right now.

Hi fellow Stam DK,

Yakidafi · September 2015

Nightblade siphoning tree : siphoning strikes morph siphoning attacks does not generate ultimate upon skill activation as it should when you have the passive soul siphoner in siphoning tree.

I guess this is from when the skill was a toggle.

Reported it ingame aswell.

Soul Siphoner: Increases the effectiveness of your Healing done by for each Siphoning ability slotted.

I guess we are talking about this one:

Transfer:

While Gaining Ultimate:
•Activating a Siphoning ability grants 2 additional Ultimate. This effect has a 4 second cooldown.

As it's a buff now it should grant you the 2 additional Ultimate on activation while being in combat.

Added!

UI - full health bar flashing

I've not figured out how to reproduce this reliably, my current guess is it happens when I die with some health buff (max/regen/hot?). You need to make the health bar visible, so eat some health food, or take an Ayleid well. The red glow flashes approximately every second, out of combat, non-stop. You can get rid of it e.g. by jumping off a tower... maybe any health loss would do... I have to try ravage health potion

Dungeon: Normal Wayrest Sewers
Allene Pellingare will not spawn immediately upon defeating the fiendish hallucinations. Players must leave the area for her to reappear.

Docmandu · September 2015

Agility bug should be fixed for next update (v2.1.6) according to ESO Live.

you don't receive the alliance emperorship health buff in the imperial city districts, but you do in the sewers.

Added! Thanks!
@Saint_JiubB14_ESO
There have been issues with this buff disappearing sometimes in the past ... was it a one time issue or is it always like that for you and / or other people aswell?

No it is constant, if I am in the districts no health buff, but in the sewers health buff, everyday since the patch went live. I think some others in my guild have it too, but so many people spend so much time in the sewers I don't know if they would notice.

New bug, using Structured Entropy mage guild skill triggers potion cooldown even if you have or have not used a potion. This stops you being able to use potions.

I have this bug. Can't use v15 pots. Only can use v10 and below pots

Ok.. checking if this is a bug.. but.. my hireling only brings me tier 9 mats, even tho I am level 10 in cloth/smith/wood VR16. My guildies are getting tier 10 mats.

Kammakazi · September 2015

Here's some of my experiences:

1. Health bar is randomly broken, in PvE areas, cities, etc. It goes back to normal after you activate a buff. Goes back when the buff ends.
2. Shield icon stays even though you don't have it one on. Usually happens in PvP (very often), and can only be fixed if you leave Cyrodiil or relog.
3. Being Eclipsed, breaking free doesn't always respond. Your character will more than likely light attack, then block right after.
4. Snipe animations still hitting you even though you already rolled or gained distance from the attacker.
5. Coldharbor impact circles
6. Wrecking Blow...

Your hirelings will not bring you mats that came out with IC DLC. Your guildies should not be getting those.

A lot of this stuff is related to lag issues in PvP and would probably not be an issue with good servers.

Added the API shield bug, although related to lag (most likely) it should be fixable by resetting all shield values the API gives you to 0 when you die.

Got the Healthbar issue already.

I get one ingot or one cloth in my hirelings (IC content). Rarely but I and guildies do.

So when you say rarely that means there is a chance of getting 1 of those? It's hard to declare it a bug for him then because he might just have bad RNG then. Let's see if others have the same issues? I for myself have not received an IC material from my hirelings yet. I only run Enchanting with skillpoints in it though.

Ok.. sounds like its more of a crit for the hireling, like the glass frags or purple or yellow crt mats. Makes sense. Guess not a bug, just an "I stink at playing RNG" thing.
