Caltrops/animation invisible

del9

I've noticed since around HoTR update that Caltrops has not been animating or showing its spikes, yet my UI tells me it's been applied and I see damage readout from it. I also am missing the cooldown and can get my next ability out instantly.
I thought at first it was lag-induced, but It happens without any lag issues, and I am not missing the ability in my rotation either. I first noticed it on dummies and now in instances as well. It throws off the timing of my rotation, pls fix. Anyone noticing this?

At the update some skills animations were reduced to remove lag/fps issues or the fact that you cant see too many things in case of big group

Caltrop is one of them

With the new update, you should see your caltrops get placed and then fade out. They should do the whole animation of flying up and then bursting out to cover the ground, but once they are on the ground they don't really remain visible for long. Its one of ZOS' attempts to lessen the lag.

If you aren't getting the firing animation, that is unusual.

Not with your own abilities. Only other people's.

So OP isn't experiencing this at all, its probably just lag.
