Unable to loot bodies, chests, or mount ride.

$fractalknight$ · January 2016

I have a random issue with not being able to open containers, loot bodies, or mount my horse. If I log out and back in as fast as I can, I might still be able to loot a body but not open a dolmen chest. It is frustrating when it happens after fighting at a dolmen and you can't open the chest. If I log out and back in quick enough, I can loot a body I just killed. Problem started a few weeks ago. I can fight if I have to, but there is a chance I won't be rewarded with loot.

It seems to be a "stuck in combat' issue. I get this too, though it seems to happen more on some alts than others. Try switching weapons, go in/out of stealth, go into a menu, etc. Usually, this will break the combat for me.

My guild Things to know when playing ESO #7 is: When something doesn't let you interact, such as looting or open doors, is Switch weapons and Dodge roll. This fixes it 85% the time.

^suspected issue is your character got stuck in an unfinished attack command on the server and Dodge roll fixes it.

Thanks for the tips. I think I tried to switch weapons without any luck. I have an issue with a sorcerer. Sometime I see a yellowish circle on the ground when I have a restoration staff equipped. I am unable to interact with things when it shows. I find that I can make it go away by switching weapons or attacking. Nothing happens when I attack. Usually happens in towns where I don't attack anything.
