I don't know if my controller sucks or maybe I'm physically challenged but whenever I pvp, my skills/ abilities only work about half the time. Like if I'm pvping on my sorc and I want to cast a curse or frag, it sometimes works. OH AND CC BREAKING IS THE WORST. I'm smashing those triggers like it ain't nothing and 90% my dude does nothing. Let me know if y'all have the same problem

    Yes, I feel a big difference between the two. Animation cancelling done in dungeons results in cancelled actions in PvP, I chalk it up to lag.

    Edit: I did, however, have the same experience in a dungeon yesterday during peak playing hours

    Noticed that since the last update as well, PvE, break free and also blocking is not always reliable (with full stamina pools). This was problematic before but has taken a turn for the worse currently (PS4/EU).

    Last night we were unable to do Dragonstar Arena because our tank got stuck with this.

    Periodically he would be unable to taunt or swap bars for a stretch of two minutes. By the time the commands worked again the rest of us would be dead due to the melee boss. We would try the round again and at a different time the same lag spike would happen again. Meanwhile I had to shield stack and randomly dodge roll because I couldn't see any of the casters' telegraphs until after they killed me. Bar swapping was a problem for all four of us, with our tank being hit the worst.

    So we ran in Crypt of Hearts I instead, and this time he was on a bit of a delay but mostly fine while my blocking and my bashing to interrupt did nothing.

    Meanwhile in City of Ash I everyone's screen would freeze and stutter in three second increments. All at the same moment, all four of us, and only while in combat situations involving 3+ targets. Most telegraphs also failed to actually load, so a dungeon which is usually no death has now become challenging... This is not what we meant by requesting more difficult content.

    We have been able to muddle through most of the veteran dungeons anyway, in spite of these weird control changes, if we felt they were easy before. Right now they are difficult due entirely to the lag or desync or whatever it is. Content we are still working on mastering, however, has currently been deemed impossible. And while I was not a skilled PvPer before, my character may as well be a 1hp rat in Cyrodiil, since the game has decided my controller buttons don't work if there are at least three people from an opposing faction nearby.

    :(

    I did too! I thought it was me just lagging, but yeah, I noticed last night more than ever that when I was trying to do my ultimate (dragon leap) it wouldn't activate, at one point it did work and i fell through the floor.... -_- not good.
