Bug: Can't use any skill

    As I see this is an older bug. I had the same problem yesterday and today. I couldn't attack, block, roll, change weapon or use my fishing rod. Nothing helped. Only a reload could fix this. I'm playing on xbox series x.

    My weapon disappeared from my hands for few second then its come back but i cant use any skills or weapons. This bug also makes you can't loot or target anything. It just happens randomly.

    It can be the stamina bug (consumes stamina without running, using skills) -> Run with shift to fix this and be able to use skills again. Roll dodge is also one the oldest tricks in the book in relation to ESO bugs...can't loot a chest or mobs...? Roll dodge....

    Yeah...

    Yes, I have had the same again and again. Either I need to relaod the UI or the game does this for me by completely logging me out (and then telling me that the account is already logged in). I haven't tried any PvP recently, but it can happen even during crafting or while merely looking for crafting nodes in Clockwork City.

    Happened to me in pvp. My ability bar was all greyed out, so I assumed it was the sprint bug, though the usual fixes for that (ie: press sprint) didn't resolve the issue.
    Obviously reloading the UI in the middle of a battle and logging out aren't going to happen, so you're just kinda screwed. It did wear off after around 20-30 seconds and go back to normal, but it's still unacceptable in the first place.

    This seems to happen when you cast an ability at the exact time an opponent dies, yet before you are allowed to animation cancel the skill. Meaning the game does not allow the skill to stop, but it can't hit anything either. This is not a lag related bug. This bug also makes it so you cannot loot or target anything.

    No, its not. I entered Maelstroem with all skills working, entered the first arena and all skills were disabled. Before I even saw an add. It has definitely nothing to do with killing NPCs or other players.

    Reloading UI fixes it for me but it sucks when it happens as a healer in a trial
