Gap-Closers Not Firing

Recremen

I was trying to farm the Troll Skull collectible in The Rift, same path I usually take for it, same skills I fire at the same spots, but now suddenly both Take Flight and Critical Rush aren't actually going off. It keeps saying "invalid location", which is complete nonsense since they're in range of the ability and I've used it there before. I think someone tried to "fix" gap-closers by making it so that if a target is more than an inch above you it won't go off. This is not a good thing. I can't charge up hills or slight inclines or really anything anymore. I can understand not wanting people to get up onto the outer walls of keeps using gap-closers, but this is way too extreme. It's not even working out in the open field anymore. The only time I can get one of those abilities to fire off is if I'm above them, and that's kind of ridiculous.

Please look into this, ZOS devs, you are my only hope.

I think preventing people from gap closing up keeps in PvP takes priority over not being able to take a shortcut to kill trolls.

Oh no... o.o;;

I disagree. At least the ability was working for half of the game (PvE vsPvP) before the "fix". Now it doesn't work for anybody and people are saying that's an improvement?

So when I said "I can't charge up hills or slight inclines or really anything anymore" and "It's not even working out in the open field anymore", you were supposed to realize that it was affecting more than just troll farming. It's affecting every combat aspect of the game right now. I'll take gap-closing up keep walls over completely dysfunctional gap-closers any day. Just tell your faction to stay away from the edges, problem solved.

Mine only fires about a third of the time in PvP....,.

Then maybe I am biased as I haven't come across any problems with gap closers in terms of fighting in the field. Could perhaps be a L2P issue but I'm not certain.

Also noticed that if I am above them by much I tend to overrun them. Since I am typically already firing off my next attack by the time I get there, that is not a good thing.

Crit charge keeps putting about 3m behind the enemy afterwards. Leap just doesn't work on an incline but remarkably jumping keeps does.

Honey don't even start. I might not be able to gap-close reliably but I still made it clear what I do with trolls.

And what would that be?
