Bad bug.. complete stamina drain; no damages output.

GreenhaloX

PS4 platform.. This has been occurring on and off, as recently as today and been with DW. Not sure if with 2H as well. Could possibly be as well, but DW, definitely.The stamina bar can be 3/4 to all the way full, but when you're attacking a target, there apparently doesn't appear you're doing any damage against the target; yet, your stam pool is draining down to empty. Only upon being completely depleted, then it regen. What the hell, man?!! Ha ha. Your toon is completely worthless during this stamina draining, no damage output ordeal. Any further strikes/skills deployed during this ordeal doesn't inflict any damage whatsoever on the target, until after your subsequent stamina regen. Although, you do have to wait until it regen back enough for the cost of the skillset!

Same here on PC, happens now and again.

Having this happen on ps4 na server, seems to happen often when heavt attack is used. using same roto and same buffs my templae can pull 22-40k dps depending on when and iff the bug happens.

Best solution I've found atm is to use a recovery glyph and vma rotation. I can consostently do about 33k dps, but at least it's consistent. Stam dps is really unreliable because of this bug, wheras it should be im a really great place.

Yeah, I love my Stamplar, but no way.. or ahhh, I don't think I can do 30 or 40 something dps with my Stamplar this patch. Ha ha. Anyways, no.. there is no quick fix for this during combat. Once it starts draining, that is it. It will keep depleting rapidly until empty. I tried rolling, cause normally that is a quick fix on most glitches, but not for this one. I can still throw out the Biting Jabs while this glitch is happening, but no damage is coming out whatsoever.

Whoa..... that's a serious issue. I haven't had anything like this happen on my Mag Sorc or Mag Warden.

Try to replicate it and figure out where the problem comes from as best as possible. Needs to be fixed for sure!

Hey, good ZOS folks.. this is still happening, by the way. I'm sure this is probably not so high on your priority list; however, hoping for a fix, patch, whatever, sometime soon. Ha ha. Also, been happening during world bosses fights and in delves and dungeons. Probably in trials as well, but haven't done that in a while, and forget about going into vMA with a DW in this current state. Oh my..

Yeah, just been stam toons (DW) so far.

Well, there is also one other annoying, but minor issue with 2H/greatsword, in similar fashion. This has also been happening on and off, since eons ago. After you do a heavy attack, and at that point, where you hit for Wrecking Blow, so it will hit successively with that heavy attack, instead of the Wrecking Blow executing, the greatsword pulls back up just seemingly before it to stike, and doesn't strike at all. It is like, when you're about to strike the target, some unknown tractor beam just pulls the sword back up just before it is to hit the target. What the hell.. ha ha

Arrrghhh.. this is getting to be horrendous. Brought out my DW StamPlar and StamBlade, and both having excessive issue with this. Stamina still completely draining when fighting world bosses, at dolmen, in delves and dungeons alike. Plus, follow-on or successive strike(s) to follow a heavy attack is not hitting or delayed. More times than I would like, I'm just swinging heavy attack. I'm pressing for Biting Jabs or Rapid Strikes.. and nothing. What the hell, man?!

Still occurring, as of yesterday! I tried to do the video clip, so maybe I can include on this post, but I still can't figure out the clip shot or video clip thing. Dammit, I'm so technologically illiterate. Anyways, all I can do is just hop around to mitigate taking damage, because I cannot dps while this stamina draining is taking place. It seems to occur when comboing a skill, like biting Jabs, with a heavy attack. Also, similar with other DW; Rapid Strikes with a heavy attack. The other bug that a successive Biting Jabs or Rapid Strikes not hitting following a heavy strike seems to be fixed, but not this stamina draining thing.

As of 7-31-17, this bug is still occurring. What would it take to get this fixed?!! Had a world boss down to 30k hp, then it hit.. I had well over 3/4 of my stam bar, but began draining and can't do shite. Suffice to say, I was killed.. while the boss only had 30k hp left. Ha ha..wtf?! Actually, the draining occurred twice during this fight.. wtf, ZOS! What do you guys need so you can get this fix on the next patch.. besides all the damn nerfing (as always.. ridiculous)? Also, occurring at dolmen.

Just an update for anyone care enough to read this thread. As of 08-17-17, it seems to have been fixed. Played a couple of my StamPlars and DW StamDK a few times for some hours during this week, and so far, there has not been any bout of this issue. Not sure if the bug has somehow went away on its own accord or the good peeps at Zen/ZOS had covertly fixed it behind the scene. Well, either way, it has been smooth sailing (aside from all the nerfs attributed the toons) with DW and Biting Jabs. I don't know, the bug could also be in remission and lurking somewhere in the dark waiting for its chance to strike again..
