    stuck in combat, easiest fix currently available that works most of the time is find a spot to hide and /reloadui

    not a 100% fix depending on how you're stuck in combat but it generally solves it.

    no, it doesnt work, you just blow through your Magicka, also It seems ZOS confirmed that if you use a heal, even rally or vigor then this is intended, which I call crap mechanics 101 since this has been a problem in-game since day one.

    Fix it ZOS, fix it.

    It's just the same with the hidden rezz nerf on PTS: It's all about ZOS being lazy.
    Sorry but it's kinda obvious and I am saying that being a developer by myself.

    The most annoying ni PvP right now isn't stuck in combat, it's the ministun you get when someone uses a gap closer on you. Nothing more frustrating then that.

    zos said it was intended for some reason but i dont really understand why..

    yesterday all i did was a little light attack against someone mounted and couldnt do much more because of server lag.. that 1 little light attack caused me to be stuck in combat for more than 5 minutes.

    Yup, gap closers need cooldowns, possibly with charges (use it two times then you'll have to wait X seconds to use it again).

    Yes totally ridiculous in combat times. I have 2 off heals and when everyone else start riding to the next destination, I come running. Takes too long. What gives me irritation too is I can´t use transistors after a battle. There I stand trying to press E. I know it is HoT that causes this but for what reason it takes minutes to be in combat?

    This is what I call the Healers Curse. It happens to me all the time. Fortunately, my guild is used to my being the last to show up due to it and the fact that my maxed out mount is slower than everyone else's mount.

    And as far as the ministun after the gap closer, that is the way the skill works. It is only a two second stun and the reason to take the gap closer. It is the closest thing a Templar has to movement. I use it all the time as it is the only way to get close enough to nightblades to use biting jabs. ZOS can get rid of it the same time as they get rid of fear. Fair is fair.

    Can't mount up. The field is so vast that walking somewhere is utter crap, you need to be able to mount up and run as fast as possible.

    I had an issue with this last night. It's Crap. And what someone else suggested about being able to mount while in combat is true. Perhaps a 10 second timer after combat is initiated and reset everytime you use an ability.

    It happens in PvE too. Prevents looting. Irritating. Block sometimes fixes it, but only reliable way I've found is logging off and on again.

    I don't believe this is what was intended. :/

    If there is any form of heal on you AT ALL you will stay in combat much longer

    Stop casting rally
    If your group is bigger than 6 members gain 75% damage reduction.

    Write this on the back of your box and see how many sales you get!

    You won't get any new PvP players until this archaic AoE crap is fixed.
    I for one won't resub until:
    1.) You fix lag.
    2.) You remove AOE caps we voted against.
    3.) 12 months have passed (this is how long we've waited for you to 'get with it')[/b]

    I've noticed that if you cast something like vigor or igneous shields while getting out of combat it will keep you in until you go ~30 seconds without applying any buffs. Single target buffs though don't seem to matter too much from what I've noticed. Things like rally, merciless resolve, etc. don't seem to have much effect on staying in combat. The worst skill to ever use is mutagen. You might as well give up on ever mounting if you use it.

    Worse is when you have multiple guys spamming gap closer on you(while trying to run way from 30+ Steel Tornado or similar) and you just cant *** move, dodge, break cc or use any skills. All the mini stuns from gap closers totally disables any control over your character. Please fix.
