Broken Animation cancelling (Unplayable)

Whenever I try to perform a rotation (Heavy attack>Rapid Strikes>Venomous etc) the rapid strike and venomous claw animations are not showing, and damage numbers are very delayed. This has made it near impossible to do any PvE content

    It seems to only be happening with DW for me. Is this happening with 2 hander or DW. There's a couple of other posts with same issue but still no response. This "bug" makes DW unplayable in PVE. Side note if you keep LA weaving with skills then pause for sec then all that damage happens at once.

    Whilst I understand this is an issue and it gets addressed.

    Unplayable, really? Unless you're doing Vet Trials I think you'll be fund without animation cancelling.

    Also if you ever wanted proof as to why balance around it is bad, here you go.

    It's unplayable as an endgame player who goes for score runs in PvE. Meaning everything needs to be perfect.

    Even worse now that heavy attacks are essential

    Since morrowind patch on xbox i cant heavy attack weave with any skills. It works when you wait till your heavy attackbis about to hit but sometimes it is not so it is impossible to do a good rotation. Fix this asap plz

    This has been going on for much longer.. ie. have had vigor not show at all on my stam templar.. and Honor the dead heals not animate on my magicka templar... think it started when they did the animation rework.

    They break more than they fix unfortunately.

    Maybe but this last update kinda really broke it. I have been extensively using dummy since they were added and I never had issues with being delayed when weaving. I know there's a thread about Macro slicing with WB and crystal frags. If you look at the video clip, you'll see at 19sec mark that 3 surprise attacks hit at same time as my Assassin's Scourge. Before that the animations are not showing it just looks like I'm hitting light attack only.

    Yes, unplayable. I think you don't understand the issue. You literally cannot see any ability animations after you heavy attack. This is not the norm therefore it is throwing people off tremendously.

    I've been having this issue myself on my NB. Doing the ol' heavy attack>rapid strikes>suprise attack is something I can't seem to do anymore, bloody annoying that.

    Yes, I agree with OP attack weaving or animation cancelling for duel wield is for the most part broken at the moment. It only works occasionally. My sorc's heavy attack, force pulse weave is working fine.

    Same issue on my Stam DK, any word from the developer?
  • William_AIA
    I'm having the same problem on my stam dk with dual wield but not with two hander. My stamplar with dual wield doesn't have any issues with broken animations though...

    I made my own thread about this (should have checked the bug forums before I did). Yeah it's broken for me too in PvE on PS4 when I dual wield on my NB.
    When I attempt to weave there is either a huge delay till the skills are fired or they do not activate at all and I just end up light attacking again or everything just hits at the exact same time with no animations showing at all.
    I literally cannot PvE while this is continuing. My damage is gone to crap and I just cannot tell if my skills are gonna fire or not it's extremely off putting.

    Just to add, two hander and bow seem to be unaffected for me. It's just any skill with weaving on dual wield.

    It's not just "animation canceling" that is affected. All abilities are affected while using DW.

    Also, the idea that "balancing around" animation canceling is bad because ZOS released a buggy update is ... ridiculous.

    my wardens light attack force pulse weave is not working fine - which means i am getting no healing - I HATE THIS GAME ATM!
