This is what made me stop running. Get your perfect run only to be stopped by a bug. Solo instance really shines off buggy combat system, wish they hid it with two man arena.

I bet next time you run into an immortal titan like I did to ruin my #1 score that's when I called it quits

OMG... What a KICK in the head, seriously. I have a low level Sorc that I grind in Orsinium Public dungeons, and I've also noticed this bug with Overload. It gets stuck in heavy attack mode while you're trying to do light attacks, and then sometimes you're trying to cancel it to use another ability but it gets stuck and.... yeah...

*sigh* unlucky man, don't give up though!

This has been happening a lot lately, I've had it with bow and duel-wield - it's impossible to do light attacks, no matter what you do the character charges a heavy attack. Very frustrating, and for some reason it mostly (if not only) happens in dungeons T_T.

Yeah that's messed up even my staff gets locked up sometimes too, heh... oh well, maybe it'll all get fixed eventually. (Hopefully)

Zenimax has more important things to worry about than fixing annoying/ gamebreaking bugs, like giving us a pet goats and shield dyes.

Seriously? and I was debating whether or not to even use toppling charge. I didn't for the first 4 rounds (I stopped there for the night) and I just felt slow like a slug and couldn't reach ranged enemies in a decent enough time, so I put it on for a bit and I did have a feeling that it would end up bugging out (as it always does in pvp anyway)

Wish they'd fix console attack skill lock up bug. Try to use a skill and you kust twitch a lil and don't attack it takes like two or three dodge rolls and a weapon swap to fix it and you basically blow all of your resources trying break free of this bug.

Press sprint, takes you out of the skill lock immediately. Still is no excuse for this problem though. It's BS

Sypher you should know by now that ZOS doesn't care about bugs, you know how long skills stay bugged in this game.

You've already given up avoiding using Reverb bugged skill as you know it will take a life time for the skill to be fixed.

It's a real shame that it would appear ZOS doesn't have the same passion for the game you do.

3rd run on sorc yesterday, got 25k fall damage when I killed the 3 crystal thingies and got knocked down on last boss. Was flawless until then. Meh

LOL only in ESO will players tell other players to not use their classes' ultimate ability because its bugged.
This is what happens when players are conditioned to wait for fixes months at a time!

2 Overload Bugs happened when I went to finish the boss.

1. No visual while casting
2. Stuck on heavy attack even though I was attempting to cast single target shots

Please excuse my language. I'm just very passionate about the game and as a pure PvP player I really wanted this flawless title achievement. Stuff happens!

Just wanted to share my failed attempt. RIP

According to ZOS, they are happy with the percentage who have completed vMA, and have no plans to change it. This is simply a L2P issue.

p.s. Hey at least you have addons and a sorcerer to try the deathless run with. GL.

I'm completely okay with the difficulty and in fact welcome it. This wasn't a l2p issue, this was a bug.

I am 99% sure ZOS would consider what happened a latency issue.

Edit: On your end of course.

Even though your animations were bugged you screwed yourself there. Your overloads were still firing even though they were invisible which is why he dropped from 8% to 2% while you were still firing. You panicked and instead of bashing his channel like you should have you lost it at the worst time. That really sucks though man, I got my flawless victor already but I lost my chance at my best score because that boss refused to die. He was 0% health and showing as dead and I overloaded him 4 more times and died to his channel in the same way. Stupid bugs like that but we deal with bugs in this game all day long. It's only when we panic and lose our focus that we usually die to them.

You can't really say "you screwed yourself" and "animations were bugged" in the same sentence. If that bug didn't exist he would have made it easily, so it was Zenimax's inability to fix old bugs that screwed him.

Its been amateur hour for the last year and a half. ZOS can you add less suck to this game please?

Any sorc that uses overload deals with this bug a dozen times a day. I consider it a "feature" at this point. The fact that his animation went invisible didn't actually hurt him. He wouldn't have killed the boss regardless because he kept attacking instead of bashing the channel. Perhaps he would have bashed it if he hadn't had bugged animations and tried to squeeze out the last bit of damage. This is what is classically termed in sports as "choking" and when it came down to it, when he was in the final play of the game down 4 with 4th and goal he choked instead of pulling through an unforseen circumstance.

That's no insult to Sypher or excuse for Zenimax, just something happens to us all, even the best of us when we set our focus too firmly on the end goal that we want so badly and end up losing sight of here and now. I bet if Sypher ready had his flawless that he would have pulled that situation off 9 times out of 10.

Consider yourself extremely lucky, most people can't even use pots when Toppling Charge bugs out....
