I'll start off, so I was just on my NB in Cyro picking off 3 players and one by one of them dead except for that last player. Mind you, it was super intense.

I almost ran out of resources and HP so I had to do my usual escape maneuver with cloaking and all that. As I rolled out of his direction and cloaked (almost got away), I was held back by some 'powerful snare' even after the snare immunity kicked in. Bewildered, I just cast Shuffle so as to remove the 'snare'. Didn't work, "WTF!" I thought to myself. No snare icon. No lags either.
So I cast another with hopes that it'll finally go away and that almost depleted my stam resource. To my surprise, I was still 'snared' and I was cursing at everything and by then, the Cloak timer is up and I was exposed, feeling naked and all with only enough magicka resource for one final Cloak while my stam regenerate.
Feeling desperate, I pressed the run/walk toggle in hopes that this might actually be the case.

Voila! Turns out the movement speed is back at the unhindered rate.... for a mere, God-forsaken ~1.5 seconds before the player found me to pin me down and let his proc damage set do all the finishing work. *cough* Selene *cough*
And there my inanimate, poor avatar was. Laying on the cold ground of war in Cyrodiil. Dead.

So I just sat here in my warm chair and speechless, triple facepalming the hell out of my head due to how clumsy I was accidentally toggling walking while in-combat. After 2-3 minutes of disbelieve, I went to the Control Settings and unbinded walking/run toggle once and for all and ragequit the game. *insert Angry German Kid video* Q.Q

Now that's out of the way, what's the most frustrating thing you've experienced in-game today? Or week if today's been blissful for you.

    Lag where you attempt to bar-swap (but don't and then cast the wrong ability, causing either you to charge into the enemy) then when you are attempting to bar-swap again, double bar-swap so that you never get to your 2nd bar, and end up dying.... This is mostly on lag, but seriously....

    easy answer - unfortunately it happens way too often...

    without doubt the most facepalming moment occurs while back rolling away from someone's eye of whatever only to bump into a branch, rock, fence, tall blade of grass - get trapped and die. .

    Was on the very last part of the Main Quest to kill Molag Bal with my magicka Warden ...

    Found myself maneuvering around some trash mobs and fell completely off the ledge far below into a pool of azure plasm.

    Had to /stuck since there was no way back up.

    Yeah, that's my vestige ...
