    Ok, it is cool that they did not forget to put endless loading screens into Greymoor. :neutral:

    The one I got stuck on going from Proudspire to Solitude was completely black. Same when using the Exit from Kynes Aegis back to Skyrim.

    Music continues. ALT-F4 will take me back to desktop, but I have to kill the ESO executable to get it to stop. On re-entry into the game, I have not moved. So, far, has worked after closing the game and restarting.

    I did not make a video, but you get the same effect if you stare at the following and pretend that the icon in the corner is rotating.

    I've had the black screen issue too, and crashing on entering/exiting buildings.

    The initial scrying quest doesn't work for a lot of people, the dig spot doesn't appear unless you abandon the quest and go back to Gabrielle and pick it up again, some people were saying that even this didn't work for them. There were a lot of very confused people standing in her backyard.

    On the subject, I didn't notice a tutorial explaining that you start scrying via the journal, I was trying to use the eye from the collections screen. Several people were asking the same question, but here it's possible I missed a message telling you how to start. Gabrielle wasn't too helpful.

    The front of Bastion Sanguinaris seems to be 'melted'. The door and braziers are hovering above the ground and the main house cannot be entered:

    I don't think they have put load screens into this yet. I have played through the tutorial. Everything went smooth but when there should have been a load screen it was just black. I have to say that this caused no harm to my play through of the tutorial.

    there's a bug currently with the new vampire home and the permanent vamp lord form.

    I was a female toon and if I transformed and then switched bars, my utl on one bar was the vampire and the next bar ult was a healing one.
    my character would stay in her normal form but grow huge and then upon switching to the non vampire lord bar I would get smaller and then vise versa. The animation would play but she would stay in her normal appearance.

    I'm wearing the fish skin and the tavern costume if that has anything to do with it.

    I have a black screen on launch and my computer doesn't respond (no alt tabbing alt/f4, windows key, or even ctrl alt del). Let it go for five minutes thinking that it was being slow and still no response; I have to manually turn off the computer to even get back to a non black screen. Repaired game and still the same issue. PTS was fine last night and this morning (I could at least see the dev credits up to the log in screen) and regular ESO is fine right now. Going to uninstall and then reinstall and hope it works, but just for future reference.

    I had a crash to the character screen after I went into the journal and tried to read the new achievement descriptions in the journal in the "Greymoor" section.
    Then when I tried to load a different character after that, I got a never-ending loading screen when I went to load the alternate character. The loading screen was going for 11 minutes before I finally did the ctrl/alt/del thing and closed the game out.

    I'm having a similar issue in the house, the physical transformation disappears after a few seconds, but it appears from my skill bar that the ultimate is active and I can toggle it off by pressing the ulti button again.

    Neglected to leave a bug report for this, so briefly mentioning here. When returning to the Bard's College after purchasing the Petraloop at auction, Leiborn wasn't there. The quest marker was, but he wasn't present for interaction. I was able to place other instruments in their spots, but not the quest one. I returned later to speak to a scholar for a daily, and suddenly Leiborn was present and I could complete the instruments quest.

    In addition to the front door of Bastion Sanguinaris being partially loaded (have to build up to the front door to use it) purchased homes do not appear on the map at all.

    Furnishing plan Errors:
    - "Blueprint: Solitude Bookcase, Narrow Backless Fill"(Epic) = missing the "ed" at the end of "Filled" (166865)
    - "Blueprint: Solitude Bookcase, Rustic Cabinet Fille"(Superior) = missing the "d" at the end of "Filled" (166879)
    - "Blueprint: Solitude Bookcase, Narrow Noble Cabinet" = There is an Epic and Superior version with the same name (166880, 166881)
    - "Blueprint: Orcish Chair, Peaked" = There is still an Epic and Superior version with the same name. This has been like this since homestead.

    - I would also assume using the corundum instead of the new style material from the dailies is an error.

    At the moment, being killed by the 'Icy Water' effect still allows me to revive in the spot I was killed at in the water, unlike as with Slaughterfish. I was able to use this to go out-of-bounds, and discovered the Solitude city interior outside of the map to the far west.

    Can't remember the quest name, but after you talk to the clever woman and she gives you the thing that lets you track the vampire to a cave, you meet a man outside the cave who needs to go inside in search of items to make a cure.

    While you are talking with him, he gestures, nods his head, etc., but his lips don't move at all-- his mouth remains shut as he speaks with you.

    I assumed that is just unfinished, a work still in progress, and not a bug per se, but wanted to mention it just in case.
    I've fought mudcrabs more fearsome than me!

    Cant access the Morthal Barrow. Every time I click on the doors I get kicked to the login screen.

    I was walking around the rocks just above the Karthald Great Lift's roof and I slipped and dropped down between the rocks and roof and became stuck, couldn't jump out or anything.

    I keep trying to enter Morthal Barrow - I get booted to log in screen each time. Its been about 5/6 times that I've tried getting in. Would love to continue storyline, if anyone has any suggestion/fix?

    Quest "Crisis at Dragon Bridge". Can't enter smuggler cave. I get the prompt, then the screen looks like it's about to load, yet still stand outside. I've tried relogging. I haven't tried abandoning quest and redoing it. I jumped over the waterfall to get to it instead of walking up to it if that matters.

    Same here cannot enter barrow - get booted to login screen with error of 'Unable to connect to game server. Please make sure you have a valid internet connection ' -
    6 tries same results, then tried total game exit and re-start - same error - blocked on this quest line.

    Crisis at Drgaon Bridge

    Wont let you go in the cave.
    "You do not have correct permission to enter."
    Abandoned quest and got the same result.
    Thought maybe it was main quest locked, that is not the case. Started dragon dridge early and continued to get the error throughout the story line. This is the only quest I had any issues with.

    Dusktown quest "Digging up Trouble"

    There's a part where it says to Read The Note after I interacted with the basket, but there is no note.

    *Maybe it's not a bug but it is highly inconvenient.
    The map pointers of Solitude are overlapping each other and it makes it nearly impossible to point the cursor to them.
    For example, "Haafingar Hoard" map marker and "Yew and Feather" map marker.

    *There is no map marker for "The Antiquarian Circle" in Solitude map.

    *Ugron gro-Thumog NPC has no voice when interacted.

    *After engaging and fleeing an Harrowstorm, the three levels difficulty boss "Gray Host Bloodknight" gives unending chase to the player fleeing the Harrowstorm. This triggers an unending combat status bug(not leaving combat).
    The NPC disappears after a few minutes of chasing the player(maybe he's still chasing but he is not being seen) but the combat bug remains.
