    I just wish the laws of physics could be stretched a bit, so I'm not stuck with this average 400ms ping between myself (Melbourne, Australia) and the EU megaserver. It causes all sorts of related problems.

    Eh, I'd trade you my 750 ms+ satellite ping for your 400....

    Ouch, that must hurt. Are there copper cables in your routes somewhere, or too many hops? My 400ms ping is basically from one side of the world to the other.

    It's the round trip to the sat and back. Actually, this is less than half what I had with a different provider years back.

    I get that too. It hasn't always been like that but I'm not sure how long it's been going on. It's just weird.

    Stuck in Combat even though you are kilometers away from the enemy and clearly not in combat with them anymore. I don't think they will ever fix this one though, they probably would have by now if they could.

    Alternatively, "Cast failed" on Teleport Strike in PvP. I know it's not technically a bug, but it's really moronic that this is the one and only gap closer that has a cast delay because someone was basically too lazy to fix it.

    Zones taking up to several minutes to finish loading. I could live with it if I could just talk with the NPC I'm waiting for (since the NPC's name is already showing up onscreen as though they're there). But having to wait for several minutes for the NPC to actually appear so I can finally talk to them is not fun.

    Several minutes?

    If you really mean that, then which platform and server, and where in the world are you playing from with what machine specs?

    Not to his degree, but PC/NA, Texas, near Killeen, Some basic-butt gaming computer from Dell bought 7? years ago. I do know my Internet isn't great though, and partially to do with living on a hillside, partially to do with Internet provider refusing to upgrade the entire section of our town to higher speeds.

    The Undaunted Quest Givers can take upwards of 2 minutes to load in after I've approached the pavilion in Wayrest. They're just invisible for 30 seconds, black silhouettes for another 30, and not until they're fully textured does the game give the prompt to talk to them. Meanwhile they're healthbar is fully loaded in when looking at their position.

    Okay, "several" minutes might be a slight exaggeration, but it can definitely take a couple of minutes at times. The Undaunted pledge givers can be bad, but the two quest givers in the Hall of Justice in Vivec City seem to be the worst. This is on PC NA and PC EU, playing from Eastern USA. The ToT NPCs in St. Delyn Canton can also be very slow to materialize, but generally not as bad as the quest givers in the Hall of Justice.

    Always been instant for me playing on a mid range laptop and mid range pc.
    Used to happen (but not for anywhere near a couple of mins, more like 4-5 secs) when I played on Xbox One X so I'd say your hardware is the problem there.

    On my current hardware, it used to run great. But for the last year or so it's been taking longer and longer for zoning to occur.

    Take a wayshrine, sit and stare at a loading screen for a few minutes before I zone in. Not 100% of the time, but much of the time. Walk up to the bridge connecting St. Delyn Canton to the Hall of Justice, stand on the bridge waiting for the textures to finish loading. Sometimes the Palace of Vivec is invisible except for the little waterfalls of the canal puzzle. Walk into the Mages Guild in Wayrest and sometimes the interior is invisible, such that the sky can be seen through the invisible walls and ceiling-- which actually looks pretty cool. Stand in front of an invisible NPC and wait until they apoear so I can interact with them-- and then sometimes have to wait still longer while they continue writing in their book or drinking their wine before they finally respond to my interaction nearly a minute earlier.

    If it's my hardware, I'd love to know what it is. I suppose it would have to be my internet, because it doesn't matter whether I'm on my Windows desktop computer or my MacBook Air. But my internet hasn't changed in several years. And from what I read in the forums from time to time, I'm not the only one who's been experiencing these kinds of issues beginning in the last year or two. So I guess there must be a lot of other people who have the same hardware problem as me.

    You say you're in doubt that its your hardware yet haven't listed your specs.
    Perhaps we could give some insight if we knew them :)

    Oh that's a bug?! I thought all this time it was me doing something wrong, and then have to attempt HA a few times because my aim was off or something. Add that to the list.

    Also when turning in writs the boxes for some reason sometimes don't properly load on the box they're standing on but in it. This sometimes prevents me from turning in that particular writ at that location and I have to move to another writ delivery point to turn them in.>>>

    Yes, this exactly!

    Not getting stuck in combat ever again would be nice.

    Also combat music could take an update or at least some variety. For example I have this for timer alarm in my phone and when the timer for lunch in oven happened to expire in midst of tedious boss fight it felt like a big improvement.

    Failed bar swaps and skills not firing. I suspect they are both caused by the same bug. If not that then stuck in combat which shouldn't be that hard to debug as I get it on a couple of the Elsweyr dragons every time I fight them pet or no pets.

    The one where every so often my staff either turns into a dagger or simply won't fire at all. Solved by a logout but it does tend to happen at the worst possible moment.

    Take a picture next time....that's so weird. Never heard of that one

    Really? Maybe it's just me!! Has happened ever since I started playing the game, maybe once every few days to once a week. I go to attack and out comes a dagger instead of a staff. It will still attack like a staff most of the time, eg you'll see a fireball. Or at least I think it's doing the same thing. I've never really stuck around with it bugging out like that long enough to check the numbers.

    Edit if ZOS see this: I play in first person a lot. I don't recall whether I've ever had it happen in third.

    A belated followup of the "staff becomes a dagger" bug in third person view, this time. When this happened I couldn't heavy attack, and light attacks had the animations of a dagger but the staff visual effects happened. It's pretty weird. Hadn't happened for a while before today, though.

    The dungeontool bugging out when queueing with 2 or 3 people. It is fine when im alone or with a full group, but when its 2 or 3 people, it often simply doesnt function.

    Pledges with my Wife, Tank and Healer combo, often are not doable because the tool wont let us in.

    I heard recently. You have to have dps queue when in a group with tank or healer,so it actually works

    I tested it and does work. Timer will go infinitely long while healer or tank has lead but instant with dps.

    You cannot mount while in combat
    You cannot change gear while in combat
    You cannot log out while in combat.

    The in combat bug is the most irritating bug I've ever seen, I once had an instance in PVP where I was logging out in an empty field and my log out repeatedly kept canceling because I suddenly "cannot log out while in combat" even though I was 2 seconds from logging out in the logout timer, this happened for 2 more minutes before the game let me actually log out.

    The group finder bug, where you fail to teleport into the dungeon and half your group appears offline and you need to guess which dungeon the finder landed you in, and to teleport into that to get it working. Luckily most of the time I'm queueing with guildies, so I can just usr guild roster to figure out where I need to tp to.

    That doesnt always work either. We tried every possible thing from changing instances to completely restarting the Game. The Dungeontool needs fixing. That is all.

    Yes, this is a really irritating problem perhaps connected to not being able to loot corpses unless you bar-swap.
