Current Exploits & Bugs that need to be fixed ASAP

  • Shrouded Daggers (dual wield line, 5th skill) procs Viper from a distance. Viper, while itself broken, is a melee set, but it's currently abused from a range by 1/2 of fotm scrublades with dual wield / 2H and stam builds in Cyrodiil
  • Lethal Arrow (Bow skill line, 5th skill) procs Viper from a distance.
  • Poison Arrow (Bow skill line, 1st skill) procs Viper from a distance.

    EDIT: No ranged abilities proc viper. It's the enchants and the poisons that are coded as melee that proc viper from range.
  • Mist Form and/or Cloak make Eye of Storm/Flame/Frost (Destro Ulti) invisible. This is a major game-breaker. The ulti is powerful enough that you don't need to spam skills to finish enemies off. And while you mist / cloak, the ulti becomes invisible on your enemies' screens, on top of making you impossible to target and impossible to avoid BECAUSE YOU DO NOT SEE THE ANGRY STORM CLOUD THAT IS HITTING YOU.
  • Selene double procs when you bar swap. Hell, I've seen it triple proc even.
  • Infernal Guardian ignores line of sight completely. I'm surprised that Wrobel let this one pass, considering all the emphasis he put on bringing all other skills/heal being affected by line of sight.
  • Infernal Guardian breaks cloak / invisibility of enemies that you haven't even seen/targeted/hit.
  • Widowmaker ignores the cooldown when you apply Poison Injection/Acid Spray on top of regular slotted poisons.
    EDIT: Widow maker can proc multiple times from the flying dagger morph that bounces a few times ater the initial hit.
  • Pack Leader WW morph : The conjured wolves both can proc viper.
  • Ilambris : Procs from elemental (fire, lightning) damage received from monsters instead of damage done by the player.
  • Bone Pirate Set : the one that gives max stamina + stamina regen with a drink buff active) : works with Psijic Ambrosia, since it's considered as a drink. Meaning you can stack Psijic + tri-stat food and benefit from this set's 5th bonus, assuming you're rich enough to afford Ambrosias, that is.

Many have reported that stuff, but there is absolutely no reply or constructive discussion from ZOS, beyond your regular automated "we will look into it" message.
@ZOS_GinaBruno @ZOS_JessicaFolsom Are you even aware of what's happening in Cyrodiil at the moment? And I'm not even talking about the broken sets/skills that you've implemented. I'm talking about these already overpowered and ridiculous skills/sets being abused even further by more and more people every day.

Please, gives us an acknowledgement or an ETA for a fix, or something. Please.

    if that's the case then why would Shrouded Daggers proc Viper? Maybe there is another bug/exploit here that is unexplained.

    Holy this explains a lot !! Always questioned myself why i can't see the destro ult i mean if it's visible you can see it quite well but there were so many death recaps where near all dmg was from destro ulti and i never seen it on the scrren.

    Thx for that information and yes that needs to be adressed immediatly than !!!!

    I'm using the whole mist + destro myself, but that doesn't mean I shouldn't raise awarenesss for that.. I mean come on, it's so broken right now. And more and more people are using it. Hell entire guild raids are using mist + destro ulti, which makes the fights quick and boring, just like some people I know, because you can't avoid what you can't see..

    I could've posted it in Bugs and Glitches category, but again, trying to raise awareness there. If a dev moves it, chances are, he'll actually read the content, and maybe, just maybe take into account those game-breaking issues.

    Turns out that its the Widowmaker set proc that is considered melee but also Poison and Disease Enchants. No range abilities actually proc Viper, its enchants proc'ing viper which just so happens to have the same cooldown as viper.

    Please, ZoS, figure out how to disable all offending sets in PvP without affecting PvE.
    If other (older) games can do it, then so can you.
    Thank you.

    Infernal guardian also targets people in stealth or invisibility. Make sure to edit your post with more people commenting the bugs.

    Post amended. Anything else? I'm pretty sure there are other exploits around, the Cyrodiil's light and No Megha's set one ought to still work, but these ones require actual specific steps and going out of your way to make them work. The ones I mentioned in the OP however, are recent and used even unknowingly by the majority of players atm.

    Pack Leader Morph, two wolves can proc viper independently. Can't believe no one's mentioned it yet.

    Also, to a lesser extent. Ilambris is procced when receiving fire or lightning damage as well.

    @Kova Edited for the WW morph. Can't believe I wasn't aware of it :3 And what do you mean for Ilambris? I thought that the fact that lightning and fire damage have 2 different cooldowns per element was supposed to be intended?

    It's more or less for the pve side of things, but multiple players have been complaining that taking flame or lightning damage from monsters or the environment procs their own sets.

    @Kova Oh okay, I'll make sure to edit the post appropriately. After having gotten all the new achievements and what not, I kinda gave up on PvE again so I'm not as aware of the bugs here as I am in PvP.

    Then pve people would have free reigns to exploit. Pve folks are as bad if not worse than pvp folks. Mobs dont snitch. No set should be a major factor with dps or winning a fight. This is where everything has gone so wrong. =(
