Using Dark Heal/Conversion causes Weapon Swaping/Block not to queue/trigger

Rastoide

Basicly what tittle says. Its been buggin me for so long, everytime i use my dark heals i press F and nothing happens.
Weapon swaping with any other ability/skill its ok, as soon as it's casted my character swaps inmediatly.

This problem caused me to fail to block too, several times, ended up one shoted or in the best of luck, just knocked out.

Could you pleeeeeeeeeaaaaassssseeeeeeee fix this. It's kindof a small biggy issue! Please

Can you queue weapon swaps during other channels?

This does affect me on a daily basis in cyrodiil and I'd love if the swap would queue but I'm just not sure it's a bug.

Nah its not a bug. Every channeled or cast time ability locks you out of everything including weapon swap. The weapon swap never queues either so you actually have to time it. It keep it simply just try not to use Dark Deal as the last skill before swapping.

You can typically animation cancel an ability with a weapon swap. You can't do it with this ability, probably so that you can't get the effect and cut off the animation that balances it out. It would be nice if it would queue the swap to happen as soon as the animation finishes, but it doesn't seem to do that.

If you could weapon swap cancel dark deal stamina sorcerers would be broken af. My main is a stam sorc.

Booo, i'd settle with a queue at least, its kindof disrupting.. evertyhing else feels "smooth" till that point when you cast that and your rotation is screwed. Made so many mistakes so far..
I might be slowly getting used to it, but that doesn't mean i like that, demands so much attention at once..

That is a problem with most, if not all, channeled abilities and extremely annoying. If I press (console user here) <ability key> (ie.e Dark Flare), dpad-left, <same ability key> then the game will execute the Dark Flare, ignore the weapon swap and the execute the Dark Flare again.
So the game *has* a queue, it just keeps ignoring some events like weapon swaps at time. Very, very counter intuitive.

Rejoyce thinking about us PS4 player, we have to stop moving to change weapon!
