Can we get rid of the ridiculous pull-back-into-meteor already

cazlonb16_ESO

No, I'm not talking about dk chains. Since the DB patch I constantly get pulled back into the area hit by meteor in sort of a reverse knock back, sometimes from quite a distance. During the pull back the character goes into a horizontal position and completely stops responding, no CC break or anything works. Seems to be some really weird sync issue.

This is on PC.

I have the same issue a lot. What's your ping like? Mine hovers around 100

It’s a disconnection you took the hit and then lag out and sit in it. Been around for a while never fixed.

This bug has been around for I'm pretty sure actual years. Never been addressed. It was a lot worse when dropping 20 meteors was the meta, and will get exactly as bad if it ever comes back as The Thing for organized groups to run.

I am legit offended by this. Compared to pretty much everything in pvp nothing grinds my gears more than this meteor rubber band.

I just accept the fact that ZoS has put the least amount time and money in PvP in favor of PvE.

It’s just good ‘ol fashioned lag causing this. Your local client has moved you out of the point of impact before the game server finally gets around to telling it that you got knocked down by the meteor, so it drags you back and puts you on the ground. Fix the lag and this won’t happen.

Someone build me a time machine back to 2014 when ZOS cared about PvP and we didn't have lag.

The harsh economic reality is 50 casuals who play for 3 weeks and buy 5 packs of crowns are worth 900 pvp'ers who bought base game only.

The whole reason PvP is lag city is cause of the anti-bot software which is when PvP became a nightmare. PvPer have been running the same map since launch Imperial City had real numbers for just one month. Battle Grounds are good but is just for the small scale folks.

I would say with the lack of new content for PvP the number of players is great. If they fixed the lag i.e. remove the anti-bot software from PvP. Not like it works PvE still has many Bots, add some content and I have no doubt PvPer would spend money in the crown store.

As it stands I’m not wasting my money to fund the next PvE DLC.

There’s also the weird thing where block goes up really sluggishly or not at all after being targeted.

I didn't see this bug regularly until after Clockwork City. Now, I see it regularly, and I don't think its because Meteor wasn't being used before CWC.

I've never had this with Meteor, but I had something similar happen in Ruins of Mazzatun the other night.

I was running to get behind the lightning caster in the Chudan fight, and got yanked about 15 meters back for no aparrent reason.

I'd say it is mostly due to packet loss or lag

numbers are a bit off

5million PVE players
500k PVP players

who would you cater to?
the loudest is not the majority.
