    It will never be fixed. We don't know if that's because ZOS doesn't believe it should be fixed, or because they can't fix it.

    However, if you notice in Cyrodil, when you are fighting NPCs (eg at a resource), as SOON as they all die, you immediately go out of combat.

    Why this can't work with PvP is not clear to me
    2 GOs, an overlord and bunches of prefects etc-- all classes...I've wasted a lot of time in PVP

    The work around is simple then. Mark current location on the map. Sprint to the nearest enemy resource. Capture it. Sprint back to map marker about 85%. Kill wolf that has pulled you back into combat. Sprint back to map marker until you are 98% there. Go stealth to avoid passing enemy zerg. Stealth remainder of journey back to map marker. Attempt to mount. You will unable to mount due to stealth. End of work around. Problem solved.

    Just please REMOVE "stuck in combat" from Cyro. Who really cares if players can mount up and ride off??? They can FTSIO anyways.Just get rid of "stuck on combat" in Cyro. It creates far more problems than it ever has solved. Remove the mechanic from Cyro.

    Actually, it means the opposite.

    DDF has a bug right now where if you die, respawn, and never leave combat during the respawn process, your DDF will stop building stacks until you exit combat.

    This means that the mythic is very inconsistent in places like BGs or IC, where you pretty much never leave combat, and can be worthless in Cyrodiil if you die and get stuck in combat.

    this is still a feature, have to crash the game to exit when in cyrodil AFTER running (hidden) across the lower half of the map to the wayshrine by the gate.

    really tired of this feature, it's only been ten years, right?

    I have another thread on this in general.

    PLEASE eliminate the combat/mount from the entire game. It serves NO purpose.

    If there is no que I have to go to IC to mount. Teleporting does no good except going to IC.

    I know it can't be "fixed" so just eliminate this from the entire game. I know they can make exceptions for Cyro and BG's like they do with companions & assistants. But it does not seem something ZOS wants to do . On my thread in general PVE players always wanted it removed.

    It obviously "can't" be fixed so REMOVE it.

    Not like ppl would "escape" by mounting up.

    Yep. After waiting almost 20 minutes at the gate was still in combat. Had to use the "quit" function to get out of game. Couldn't port out of cyro or log off due to stuck in combat.

    The main reason you are stuck in combat in PVP is that you hit a ball groups who stays in combat! They create lag, and not balanced in any aspect. One very coordinated ball group can destroy a whole faction stack in a keep. Just crazy imbalance atm. My guild left Grey Host or the main server years ago to get away from them. Because we do not like that style of pvp. However they have been playing in Shore also lately. Guess what has come back (Combat Bug)

    REMOVE this mechanic from the game. It's apparently obviously it can NOT be fixed. REMOVE it.

    If it would not exist any longer then combat seems not possible at all. Inconsequent combat without any opponent in the vicinity is just frustrating. How this mechanism works is not clear, something with surviving seems the issue. Combat in general could need a different approach.

    As asked for many time, WHY can this mechanic not just be removed from game. I know it will never be fixed so REMOVE it. Both PVP and PVE players see it as worthless.

    REMOVE it. It is beyond the capability of being fixed so REMOVE it.
