I hope you are working on the 1-2sec deaths that are happening like crazy in pvp right now. Its a gankers dream not sure if exploiters are happening or a combo of them and macros but its not pvp when you have no chance to fight back.
yeah I know the gankers will post L2p and other such BS.
I am starting to wonder if I need to macro be able to play on a level field in this game. every patch brings now exploits. yes a lot has been fixed and maybe in the future this will be too but its getting ridiculous its almost like someone on the inside is doing this on purpose.
It takes all of ten minutes play in any pvp to see who is doing this and some of the same people ARE STILL IN GAME doing same or new tricks.
If this game is going to be just for a select few with insider tricks your not going to have much of a player base in the future.

    Yes there are bugs in PVP atm... One bug is crits ... some people have higher crits then they should. Yesterday my crits jumped to 48% when they should be around 28% .... You also have an across the board DA increase..... Flame whip before the patch a base 429 for me after the pactch a base 492 ... Ultimates are hitting harder almost everything is hitting harder ....

    OP:

    I have been on both ends so to speak. What I've found is it has something to do with the bow. It happens (to me at least) at random and have no idea to replicate it. Sometimes my bow will deal no visible damage, eg health bar stays full but FTC reports damage being dealt. And sometimes poof the enemy is gone. Then they will feel it as insta death, but I have been spamming them with light attack+venom arrow for 10 secs.

    Had it happen to me as well, and it doesnt feel nice - pls fix!

    Bat Swarm also seems to be regularly doing 1300+ damage. I don't have a vampire character, though, so I have no idea if this is working as intended, or if this is another damage bug. Needless to say, if working as intended, disregard this post.

    Hehehe! I'm going to assume that's a "disregard this post" answer.

    Welcome to genius level coding in ESO.
    New patch = new problems.

    This has been going on for a while.
    - Istant deaths through screwed up crit calculations or any other form of bugs.
    - 1 sec death cause of the never-ending lag issue. Obviously 1 sec is enough for one enemy to cast a min of 6 attacks.
    - 1 sec death cause arrow attacks or other airborne stuff don´t (always) register on your health bar. Zapp! and you are gone and you wonder how the jack that was possible when taking a peek at the death recap.


    If you are bored write a ticket ... or a dozen. But I wouldn´t be too sure they´d read that after all.

    I was manning siege in Cyrodiil. One second I was alive, the next my Magicka (!?) disappeared for no apparent reason, half a second later I was dead.

    Death recap showed that I had been hit with Lethal Arrow then about 5 bow light attacks, but my health bar never moved, it went from full to empty, and I did not receive any other feedback that I was being attacked whatsoever.

    I think the Magicka thing is also a part of the same bug with Bow, though it doesn't occur every time.

    Right now bow attacks are bugged, not showing animations and not showing health bar decrease as you are hit by them.

    So basically everyone and their mom is using bow right now because you have no idea you are being hit with one until you are dead.

    It's not just bow, other magical attacks are doing it too. But the majority of it is bow as it's the most common ranged weapon.
    Been here since Feb 2014 - You'd think I'd be half reasonable at this game by now...

    I don't know exactly, how long this game is live, but I learned to treat that problem like usual problems a game goes through in the early stage. Many if not all complex online games like this have PvP-issues.

    Sure, the company was probably a bit early (as it often happens) with putting it out, but if you really like the game, you'll find a way to enjoy it.
    See, eventually we will look back and say stuff like, "Do you remember that stupid bug back then? Yeah, what a time, hehe!" :smile:

    What i am thinking is its the bow. I have been destroying peolole with snipe, but only because they dont know they have been tagged. The health bar doesnt update but the damage is taken. After a few more snipes they just drop dead. If you have been hit by a bow skill its probable you have 800-1000 less health left than you think

    Been saved by my addon as I saw a damage number scroll but no animation, sound or hp change, so I cloaked and looked around and sure enough could see an archer in the distance.

    It's also annoying as a bow user as deaths are also late to update and someone could appear alive although dead and you can keep shooting them.

    Kinda.

    Ultimates like Bat Swarm, Soul Strike, and Soul Tether that have a DoT effect show up in the death recap as one attack with all of the damage put together instead of a bunch of lesser ticks.

    AFAIK its just ultimates that do this.

    Okay, that makes sense, and I'm kicking myself that I didn't think of this answer before.
