Captain Blackheart supports bugs, plus some people cannot see dead allies

Remember this little issue? Hopefully you do, I'VE ONLY BEEN MENTIONING IT A LOT OF TIMES! https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/295306/long-standing-bug-regarding-storm-atronach-and-traps

So my Healer went to lay down the Atronach with NONE of those trap abilities laid down and HE DIDN'T SPAWN! There were apparently so many adds around that it stopped the Atronach from spawning. Now I know you're not gonna reduce the number and frequency of the adds so please for the love of Mara FIX THIS BUG! The link I provided has the info needed.


Also my friend seems to have an issue where there are times when someone in his group dies and he cannot see them at all to revive them. Does anyone else experience this? If not, what can he do to fix it?

Sometimes it happens to me that a group member is generally not visible (only the health bar and group member icon can be seen). This is easily fixed when the invisible player simply relogs with their character.

If your friend only cannot see the other member, when they die, it might be that the dead player was incinerated and is a pile of ash on the ground. Sometimes, the group member indicator also vanishes in that case, so it is really hard to find the player for revival. I don't know if there actually is a fix for this (it would already be helpful if the marker would stay above the ash pile...). If your friend is on PC, they could try to use the addon TeamFormation, which adds a new UI overlay when you are in a group, showing the relative positions of your group members to your own current position (plus, if that member is dead).

We play on PS4 and he has this issue when allies just die normally. It's also inconsistent, like one death he can see them and is able to revive them and the next he cannot.

I am on PS4 and have this issue all the time. Include fire AOE's and my chances of finding a dead player while trying to heal remaining players is reduced to 0.

While sometimes the glitch seems sudden and random, there is also a sure fire way to trigger it. Walk through the door at the same time as my group. Seriously, that triggers it almost every time. To avoid it I can make sure I'm the first or last through the door. if I try to activate the door while their health bar remains on my side of the door, but after their character has disappeared, then they will not have a health bar or indicator overhead when I get through to the other side. /reloadui doesn't fix it. The whole group has to walk back out the door and then through again, with me either first or last when we re-enter.

This is quite frustrating and I have little faith that zos will do anything about this since it doesn't directly relate to their crown store income, which seems to be the only well maintained aspect of the game.

If anyone knows of a fix, I'd love to hear it. However, it sure seems the only fix for all the zos issues is to play GTAV.
