ZoS fix Snipe

TrueGreenSmoker · March 2017

As the title says

Now that snipe is the first bow ability I am getting snipe lagged like crazy.. One moment I am walking/running and the other moment my magicka/stamina goes to 0 and 2 seconds later I die. Or if Im fighting someone and out of nowhere same thing resources to 0 and health drops seconds later.. And when I look at the death recap it's snipe snipe snipe snipe snipe and while I look at all that I hear the snipes hitting me but Im already dead looking at the death recap.. Really annoying now..

This happens whenever you get hit from stealth. Adapt and overcome.

Your resources dropping might actually be poisons. A lot of people in cyro use them.

You realize that kinda impossible right. You can not adapt to lag especially when it comes to snipe.A lot of players learn how to dodge/Block hard hitting abilities thanks to sound effects every ability have. Its impossible to do that with snipe because the Sound effects plays after you are inflicted with damage,thanks to lag. You can't not adapt to a ability you can't hear and see.

How can I adapt and overcome if people in stealth I don't see and the snipe's hit/show up at the moment your resources are 0 then it's too late to adapt and overcome...Please give me a better comment

Scales sometimes don't reflect I tried mag dk at the begin of Homestead and still got hit by frags and snipe so I got back on my mag sorc

As a bow user, and occasional ganker, I get [snip] whispers about this in Cyrodiil all the time.

From my perspective, people are knocked off their mount by my firt Lethal Arrow and then stand there motionless waiting for death. Even after the CC wears off. I always assume it's a connection issue for my opponent.

If it's poison then it will say poison on the death recap but snipe lag takes all your resources magicka and stam all from 100% to 0

Is this just another thread to vent, *** and whine about something and ignore any advice and suggestions?

Health desync is a real issue.

Solariken · March 2017

Yep, it's stupid. I wish they would get rid of the huge travel arc and just speed up the projectile. People can fire three before one even hits the target at long distance. It's also incredibly stupid that you can launch a snipe and then a gap closer and have both land at the same time... Such garbage design.

This.

Obvious "I got killed by (insert ability here) so nerf (insert same ability here)" thread is obvious.

That's lousy.

Compounded by the fact they never fixed the hidden emote attack glitch and death recap lag.
Not snipes fault directly, used to be able to hear it coming and dodge but now zerg hides it.

When you do that all we see is mag and stam from 100% to 0, abilities turn black and we can't roll dodge or buff/heal up. We just wait for the death recap that comes 2 seconds later and sometimes when your dead and look at the death recap you can hear and see snipe still hitting and damaging you even tho you have 0 health lol. Yesterday someone hit me with snipe I was death looking at the death recap and it showed in red damage numbers (PS4) 7.5K damage hitting me.

@TrueGreenSmoker Do you have a head set you wear for PvP?

I was terribly disappointed when I found out that I misread the title and that this thread is not about Snape.

I have a mic, going to buy a headset soon that has the ability to hear people sneaking/walking around etc might help me more with these people in stealth on console

Lol you made me look back at the title lol I was like wait did I put snape instead of snipe... You got me

DocFrost72 · March 2017

So, fix snipe because the lag causes instant death? I don't follow, unless you can say that snipe alone is doing this.

Also, if you suddenly stop and can't move, try to CC break. If you're saying you areally instantly dead and never saw a move (?), CE or lag. Neither would be fixed by changing snipe.

You can hear it when you get hit but in stealth people fire like 3-4 snipes and when one hits you its too late you get hit by 2-3 more and your death no time to roll dodge/block/shield up/heal

I can help you with that brother. Since we both PvP on PS4, I use the Sony PS4 Wireless Bluetooth headset which is about $79.99 on Amazon.

I can hear everything in PvP with these on, I've heard a incoming snipe hit my body on my MagSorc and immediately I dismounted myself and CC broke/Shielded up.

I recommend this headset, it's absolutely a must for PvP.

I am not new to ESO i know how to CC break but how can you CC break with resources 0? from 100 to 0 in seconds by snipe btw when snipe lag hits you, you don't get CC'd you can walk around for 2 seconds and then you drop dead and death recap will show snipe 5 times, lethal arrow 5 times or focused aim 5 times

I've had mine for almost 2 years. The place where the ear muffs fold in-- that plastic in there will break over time from multiple uses, but I just taped that region up. And I can still move the ear muffs portion up and down. They haven't failed me yet!

You may have been hit by more projectiles then you think.

And if you're focused, you can't spam it fast enough to stop everything.

It *is* useful though, don't give up on it. Keep a slot for it, use it often.

Many gankers will give you a pass when they see your wings, scales can save your life without you even knowing it.

I use these! And I also get killed by snipe, especially when I get hit by 4-5 arrows in an instant.

Because I have had a similar thing happen to me, and CCing is ingrained when the game isn't responsive lol.

Also, read the rest of my post. Does Snipe cause this health disconnect? If so, what tests did you run?

Assuming you didn't, why call for snipe fixes and not lag fixes? Genuinely curious.

OOJIMMY · March 2017

You can't adapt to lag. If your resources deplete instantly that means the server lagged and you were desynced.
It haha to me all the time. Just minding my business waiting for a wall to come down, resources drop, still at full health, then fall over dead with 5 Snipes on my recap.
