Dodge roll and subsequent skill

Is it intended that after dodge rolling, your skills are greyed out and not usable for a period of time that seems to increase the laggier the game is? (PVP)

PC-NA

I have had ping consistently in the 300-500ms range for over 3 years in Cyrodiil, I have never previously experienced the delay in skills being able to be used after dodge roll until this Summerset patch or noticed skills being greyed out for any noticeable length of time after dodge roll. At times my ping seems typical but lag/game performance seems way worse than I have experienced previously at this ping. Maybe it is not a bug but poorer than usual server performance, many people were complaining of similar in zone.

Poor quality video and latency was about 350-400 more due to the use of nvidia video capture but this is exactly (or worse) what happens when trying to fight.

    @GlorphNoldorin : On which platform and megaserver do you play TESO? ZOS cannot investigate your report without that information. (Please read the Guidelines For Bug Report Forum).

    No. .... If that is "intended" now, then that would certainly be news to me. If there is any "cooldown" on using skills after a Dodge-Roll, then it is so brief that I've never particularly noticed it. IMHO, you should post your question in the Combat & Character Mechanics section of the forum.

    However, if the cause of the skills being greyed-out is network latency, then that is not a flaw in the design or implementation of the software (i.e., it is not a "bug"). It is a performance problem, whether with your computer, with your ISP, with the Internet, and/or with the Bethesda megaserver system.

    That is happening for long time. I would suspect it is delay caused by server having to tell you client you are free to use skills where the dodge roll happens instantly for you (at least the animation), server has to process it all first.
    Thats why you can also get killed in middle of dodge roll by dodgeable ability when it gets extra laggy.
