Rapid Maneuver sometimes won't cast while mounted

Jayman1000

I have suddenly begun having an issue where Rapid Maneuver sometimes won't cast while mounted. If I dismount it casts fine. All other abilities can activate/cast just fine while mounted, like healing skills, offensive skills (when they are cast they cause me to get dismounted of course, but they do get cast while mounted). It's only Rapid Maneuver that doesn't work. I press the button and the Rapid Maneuver button on the skillbar gets visually pressed while I press the key, but it doesn't actually cast.

It happens fairly frequently but not all the time. What could be causing this and how to fix it? I have tried disabling addons, reloading UI etc, nothing helps it seems.

oh don't worry it randomly cast itself after you use a wayshrine for some reason so i guess that's just to compensate...also best part is when you get maneuver on a lvl3 character that never set foot on cyrodill.

Agreed on this puppy. its buggy

Pelamina

Same here. Started happening to me yesterday. Well it happened just once actually.

Guarlet

Aye, can confirm it's been happening to me, PC EU. I thought it was just my connection being dodgy, glad to hear it's an actual thing.

This is happening to me every single day.
And what does ZOS do? Nothing as usual.

And it doesn't provide snare immunity after it's on. I've noticed many times both mounted and dismounted NPCs will snare me while I have it, so unless I've misread the retreating maneuver tooltip (or if it just works in PVP like that), then it's very buggy. Someone fix this pls.

I noticed that too. I dont pvp so I dont know if it is only pvp, but I have a feeling that is only snares from players. It has never prevented snares/immoblizations from npc when I have tested it. Why they dont want to include info in the skill tooltip is beyoned me, but I guess that's just zos. No need to fix something that isn't working as intended.

I have experienced this bug for as long as I can remember.

In other news, I would like more things available when mounted. Any skill that doesn’t do damage should be castable when mounted IMO.

I've had problems where Charging Maneuver won't recast when the Minor Expedition aspect of it is still active. To the OP: are you sure you have enough stamina when you cast it? Sometimes it seems like it's broken when it's just a matter of not having enough resources at the moment.

This isn't new, I have had this issue for ages (a year or two). Sometimes I have even have to bar swap a couple of times before it seems to activate. Doesn't happen often, but enough to be mildly irritating.

Doesn't work at times even with full stamina. Its a pain to dismount and mount back to make it work. When this happens alongside combat bug (where you use that 1 second out of combat window to mount) and you can not mount for ages.

Absolutely 100% sure. I have tested this rigorously when it happens; stamina is 100% full, more than 10K stamina available. When it happens there is only one way to "fix" it, and that is to dismount and then Rapid Maneuver can be cast again.

yes that combat bug too sometimes. Nothing can be done except running; no skills, no mouinting, no blocking, dodging or interrupting, just running (disclaimer: not a *** commercial). I can fix it by porting to another zone, but... that's a pretty annoying thing to have to do too, and totally out of the question when pvp'ing in cyrodiil.

Rapid Maneuver? Press the button 2-4 times repeatedly hard, it should trigger then. Got to do it every time you try to cast it. The bug has been there longer than I can remember.

ESO_Nightingale

Hasnt this bug existed for like the entire existance of this game?

HalloweenWeed

Me and my friend experience this too.

Perwulf

Happening since launch also sprint lock.

I gave up already.

Been there done that, unfortunately. I've pressed that button so fast man. I used to play with a joystick on my C64 when I was young, some games you could gain an advantage if you pressed the joystick button insanely fast. This could be achieve by tightening you muscless and making your arm jitter/shake really fast while pointing your finger close to the button. This would cause the finger to vibrate up and down as fast as your arm could shake/Jitter (really fast, more than 10 clicks per second). Even this technique does not provoke the rapid maneuver, tried it sadly and it fails.

lmao I realize now what this looks like...

Actually last few days I notice random skills also becoming non-responsive to a single press of a button. That is in PvE where they kind of always have responded quite reliably for me, not Cyrodiil PvP. But I could swear the game is getting worse and worse with performance by the day.

I thought that this was an animation issue and I thought it was still casting, but with others posting here, I'm going to watch the hotbar active icons more closely to see if it's animation or actually not casting for me

Found this to be a problem in pvp. Get off my mount, cast rapid maneuver, get back on mount.

Yes exactly, that's the only way to "fix" it, until it happens again.

My issue with Rapid Maneuver is add on related. Sometimes it won't put back what I had slotted.
