Dear ZOS: when are you going to fix the Snipe health desync bug?

Literally dozens of threads on this issue over the years, and it’s still not addressed. I’m getting REALLY tired of dying to trashy stamNBs who sit in stealth and spam one button, exploiting the health desync bug to kill me in a second before the game gives me any indication whatsoever that I’ve been hit with Lethal Arrow.

FIX IT PLEASE.

    The performance is getting so bad it's happening with other abilities too, even seige. No red circles, no damage taken and then all of a sudden you're dead with 4 seconds of oil ticks. Gotta love it!

    So you would suggest saying nothing and being complacent with a garbage broken skill?

    No rant on, for what good it will do, in all those threads they have said nothing.
    It is not the skill that is broken, it is client/server sync that is.

    It’s funny though, how Snipe spam causes the bug every damn day I play this game, while other abilities spammed on me do not...

    You must be special, I rarely get killed only by snipe.

    It’s not only snipe, flying daggers, poison inject, clench, javelin, draining shot, hell even birds on a rare occasion desync. However. Snipe was the only issue till summerset. Then many more bugs came that are still to this day not fixed

    Did I say I was ONLY getting killed by Snipe? There are often other skills/enchant procs in the mix. The skill that triggers the bug, though, is Snipe — usually cast from stealth by a NB.

    Some screen caps of recent deaths where my health dropped from 100% (or close to it) to 0 in one second, without me even realizing I’d been hit with Snipe spam:

    Sucks. But that's life on the ESO plains. You get immune to it over time, and just learn to deal with it. Should that be the outcome? Definitely not, but it is what it is. Nothing will be changed.

    Happens with any hard hitting skill. Hope they fix the stuck in combat bug soon as well. That one prevents rapid-deployment offense and defense way too often.

    All of the first 2, and the 3rd happens to people like me with lowish crit resist. It’s the trade off I’ve made. I can survive longer inside a keep playing defense than almost anyone I know of on XBox NA, but am easily one shot off my horse by the “thwoop, thwoop” of belated death. You’re probably right that there are other skills involved, but when it happens once an hour I just chalk it up to “it happens” and move along usually without bothering to check my death log.

    Don’t worry, @dwemer_paleologist , no ones trying to ruin your ranged playstyle. Just want to fix — yes, indeed — a broken skill.

    Thing is, I only really play BGs these days. It’s difficult to stack crit resist in BGs, unless you’re running Impreg. The bug seems to be related to the stun from stealth. Often times, you don’t even HEAR the skill going off (and believe me folks, I know what Snipe sounds like — I pugged many a dungeon back when I still did PVE in this game). You’re just fighting regularly (or even not engaged in combat at all!) and then suddenly find yourself dead with no indication that you’re being sniped. It’s so frustrating.
