Cannot mount in combat

Please, my goodness tweak this. I get that you shouldn’t be able to mount in combat, I support that entirely. But when you haven’t engaged in any combat for a certain period for the love of god allow us to mount. Of all the bugs and issues, this is one that has persisted since launch

Would be a fantastic quality of life improvement especially in pvp

    It's been ongoing for years, it really is mind blowing that they haven't solved this. To me, it seems like it would be so easy to just write some sort of check that reads;

    "If you haven't dealt or received damage or healing, and haven't distributed any buffs in the last 30-45 seconds, you exit combat."

    I have undoubtedly spent dozens, maybe even closer to 100 hours at this point running on foot across cyrodiil because I cannot exit combat.

    Easy issue to patch, if in combat, allow the character to mount anyway, but with 0 riding stamina.
    If you are in actual combat, someone will knock you off that horse instantly.

    Yes, ideally, they would just fix the whole "stuck in combat" thing, but... I would advise against holding your breath waiting for that.

    Light attack a tree and it should eventually get you out of the combat bug. Don't ask me why it works but it does.

    Originally what got me to build for speed. Count yourself lucky that they at least made it to where you can use transit shrines now. Used to not be able to even do that

    Just make mounting make you vulnerable for 15 seconds to take unmitigated damage. If someone wants to mount then; well go for it

    I've found that picking up a flower or some other resource node often (but not always) gets me out of stuck in combat state.

    “I have this rock that keeps tigers away.”

    “Does it work?”

    “I don’t see any tigers around. Do you?”

    You just need to align your 3rd chakra with the 5th ring of Saturn, account for the inter-planal differentiation of Saturn's multidimensional shift from not being in Mundus, throw one stone at a tree which has been growing for no longer than 53.4 years, crouch twice and then execute 5 lights attacks before finally doing one lay down emote.

    PROBLEM SOLVED. You're welcome.

    Its a PVP issue so it won't be fixed, if it happens in PVE then they will be on it in a flash

    But it does happen in pve not quite to the same extent but I was stuck running around Murkmire earlier today and couldn’t mount. It’s not as much of an issue but it’s still there

    I am actually expecting this to be on their q3 qol update. It's beyond annoying and of all the qol stuff and bugs this should be on the easier end.

    I also hate when i get stuck in combat infinitely and must Seppuku myself to fix it.

    For many years they have refused to even acknowledge that this is an issue. So, either:

    (A) It is working as intended, or

    (B) They don't know how to fix it.

    We now have a infinite mount stamina CP node so how would that factor in?

    The War Mount node removes stamina costs out of combat.

    Overland I learned that an AoE on ground worked, here the problem is usual that some enemy is stuck trying to get to you.
    You know how they run up to you do one attack and run away, an behavior why make no sense.
    If you do an attack I suspect the game recalculates this.

    In a group in Cyrodil it get worse as in if some in group agro an mob it affect group members in an radius.
    Grinding just make you go in circles.
    Asking ZoS for nerfs is as stupid as asking for close air support from the death star.

    yeah just let us mount combat or not. what difference does it make if you're actually in combat? i like the 0 stamina thing that someone mentioned, so you could be knocked off your horse. of course then, we'd probably be a 0 stamina for 5 hrs because the whole thing's borked to begin with
