Delayed, bugged, non existent, spazzed out Animations

Trancestor

Since i first started pvping i remember animations being buggy and not going off, but it has never been as bad as now:

0.04 - heavy attacking into heroic bash cancel, notice how it spazzes out
0.09 - i use a DB after the dizzying goes off, DB animation or effect doesn't show at all
0.10 - I use reverse slice, animation doesn't show at all, the dmg appears a whopping 2 seconds later after the victims body glitches back a few meters

Look at my ping and fps counter, it's perfectly stable, i was not lagging at the time.

I notice this happens especially a lot on a stamden, and not just with 2h but with DW too, animations just don't go off half the time and neither does the sound whenever i attack players on my stamden, Dizzying swing is also a big factor for sure on any class, whenever i use dizzying, any skill that i use after the dizzying hits will just not show its animation or sound or it will show at an extreme delay, the skills hit the target tho. This is extremely annoying and makes the game constantly feel laggy even when it's not lagging. Is this just me btw? Because i rarely see people complain about this.

I‘ve had the same issues since Morrowind, getting worse every Update. Another good example is Biting Jabs getting you stuck in the animation only to double fire 1-2 casts later.

I was also always awfully susceptible by dodgeable stuff passing my Dodge Roll (mainly incap).

I too had stable fps/ping displayed but at times people told me, that for them I teleported all over the place.

Lately you see many complaints about the abysmal EU server performance and some link it to their providers creating too many chops in their trace route to get to the ESO servers. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I never get that with biting jabs, but i do get it with other skills, weird.
I wonder why providers around the world hate ESO so much, because it doesn't seem to happen with other games.

People stopped complaining about it because they all gave up. We all just accept it now . I look back on old 1.6 and 1.7 PvP videos and the PvP just looks so fluid, responsive and amazing compared to what it is now.

The light attack, heroic bash issue happens to me alot but I also have an issue where that combo totally bugs out and I have to wait for the animations to finish before I can do anything again, and it's honestly making me want to quit the game.

It happens every single fight, even when it's not lagging. I don't see anyone else mention this though so not sure if it's just a controller issue or not.
