    I'm having problems running the game...

    Error%2B209.png

    I already did the repairing process few times. I can launch and play the game for a while, then it freezes and I have to terminate it from the Windows task manager.

    I received this error when I am having intermittened connectivity issues with my Internet and I am ingame and I can no longer interact with the world.

    Double check to make sure that you are not having any internet issues.

    Also, as another players suggested, just close the client and reopen it. It typically goes away.

    Crystal Shards/Fragments do not appear to be working correctly.

    I use this as an "opener" if I have the drop on my PvE target -- the spell casts correctly and the target is knocked down, but as the fight progresses, and I gain the instant-cast ability and use it, the shard does not knock down the opponent a second time. The opponent seems unaffected other than to take damage. This happened 100% of the time in my most recent play session -- the targets were universally hostile spirits at rank VR2.

    I am using the Crystal Fragments morph (possibility of instant cast). I started noticing this when I was mostly fighting spirits/ghosts at VR2.

    • Zoning results in endless loading screens much too often.
    • Zoning results in toggle abilities like Siphoning Attacks to show as 'off' on your bar, while they are actually 'on'.
    • A lot of actual ESO freezes while levelling Legerdemain. Have to Alt-Tab out of the game and force it to close.
    • The fix for horse riding has resulted in much worse riding overall. Constantly getting stuck for no reason.
    • Horse riding in general is very rubber bandy. Cannot dismount anymore while sprinting.
    • Restoration Staff attack animations often don't play and in general it feels very unreliable.
    • Camo Hunter casting animation often doesn't play, or plays at random.
    • The game seems to have taken up the habit again to randomly spawn me somewhere high up in the sky when porting to say, Mournhold.
    • You nerfed Argonians because ...?

    Look, when I say I clicked all black boxes, you can take it from me that I clicked all black boxes. Nothing happens in that case. I don't get the other black box asking me if I want to travel to that wayshrine, I don't get to travel to that wayshrine either.
    It usually happens when there is an icon close by the wayshrine or underneath it. It doesn't always happen.

    Another enlightenment and champion point related issue/observation

    From patch day until yesterday evening, the game seemed to be behaving fine regarding champion points/enlightenment. I was getting enlightenment at 3:30 roughly every day and able to earn 4 champion points.
    Yesterday evening, I acquired the "enlightenment bug" where my enlightenment would vanish entirely moving zones, using wayshrines, or swapping characters. This began to occur after visiting Cyrodiil and receiving enlightenment out of the blue at a time other than expected. I'm not sure if they're related.

    Today, I encountered another bug. Enlightenment showed up as expected at 4:30 (daylight saving) and I was in zone ready to grind out the 4 points. My champion experience was decreasing, instead of increasing, and was still taking away from my enlightenment pool. I also received less enlightenment than before - only 1 full cps worth, but I was not able to earn the point due to this champion experience subtracting bug. I have no idea what triggered it. This occured on a different character than the one experiencing the bug where you lose enlightenment logging in/out/changing zones.

    Entered a Bug report online, but figured I throw one in here as well.

    I've got a 6th level Dragonknight that got respec'd and I appear to be missing a few skill points.
    I had (and show) experience in Dual Wield: Flurry, and Bow: Poison Arrow, but after assigning skill points to the other skil choices I had previously, I seem to be out of skill points.

    And No, I didn't morph anything (not sure I even could at 6th) and I don't think my crafting skills got respec'ed either.
    Although it has been quite a while since I played the character, I figured since it is such a low level it should be easy to compare any pre-1.6 character data to post-1.6 character data for QA/bug team.

    I posted previously before I saw this thread.

    The majority of the quests in Kennathi's Roost are not updating. Right now, it seems I can't complete anything. It appears that the same thing is happening to other players as well, based on the fact that I see a large number of players standing around the same quest nodes or event, waiting for them to update.

    This is very like the bugs from launch

    Then you probably should have reported it as, the contextual menu being broken rather than, "I clicked all the things!" Because one of these sounds like a bug, and the other sounds like a failure to understand the UI. And, after encountering people in vet zones that haven't learned about weapon swapping, I'm a little dubious about giving people the benefit on the doubt on that one anymore.

    Champion points are rolling back for me. Every champion point I earn says I've earned the point, but the point is not awarded. If I log out or change zones, I'm rolled back and no longer have the earned Champion level and have lost (champion) experience.

    You know what problem I have with 1.6?

    You CONTINUE to marginalize the NB's cloak. Add in Revealing Flare, allow guards to ignore cloak, ALLOW potions to be better than cloak (I'm a NB and I USE THEM), citizens ignoring cloak, devs NOT fixing cloak so it works correctly (I should be able to use it IN combat).......I am fed up with it.

    I don't know what NB wronged which Dev out in PvP but they need to suck it up and stop raining on our skill or just remove it because it's a useless skill for a skill set they "should" be the best/most adept choice for (legerdemain) and near useless in PvP since everyone has stealth crouch anyway.

    I'm sure it's already been reported in this thread or elsewhere but the Magelight animation is completely broken, in fact all the 1.6 staff animations are just horrendously awful. Whereas before it felt responsive and natural now I look like I'm having a seizure. Why? I have to scratch my head and wonder who approved such arbitrary changes; utterly pointless, utterly useless.

    Enlightment is not working correctly for me. I logged on earlier today and after a hour or so I got the message that I was Enlightened. About 20 mins later, without having done anything to earn XP, my Enlightment disapeared. I did daily undaunted pledges, went back to town to sell, and then after maybe 15 min, I got an new message that I was Enlightened. I got a group and ported to a dungeon and my Enlightment was gone.

    I have been unable to earn any XP at all while under Enlightment since the patch was released. It seems to disapear as soon as I port to a dungeon or change zone.

    This happens to me also. I do get my daily allotment (I guess it will be just max 1 cp now, not 4 like pre-hotfix), but I also get periodic messages that I have gained Enlightenment, but then it goes away when I actually travel to a good grinding spot.

    I will note that I have always been in Cyrodil when I got the message, and it always vanished when I left Cyro.

    Heh, I was always in Rawl'ka when I got enlightened, then as soon as I ported to a dungeon, it was gone :pensive:
    Seemed to be fixed when I logged in the next day however. Enlightment stayed on me after I ported around.

    BUG:
    • Lightning armor visual effects extend way past the normal bubble (about twice the distance) sometimes, making it virtually impossible to see in 3rd person - even worse in 1st person.
    • Fragging someone while (they are) swimming does not even phase them or slow them down at all.
    • Mephalia fight Vet Fungal Grotto VR12 was bugging out very bad:
      • She would arbitrarily reset while still in fight area (no one leaving zone)
      • Double 'laser' AoE's
      • Primary AoE no longer focused on her (don't know if this part was intended or not)
    • Shattered and the Lost Craglorn Quest arbitrarily reset itself.
    • Undaunted rep still doesn't advance once in Level 9
    • 2nd to last boss in Vet CoH not always showing Mine AoE's.
    • AoE's in Vet CoH and Cone AoE from Vet Sewers last boss still causing damage in fringe area (clearly outside of AoE)
    • Mob difficulty vs Boss difficulty:
      • In Vet Sewers, mobs were cranked up (take much longer to clear - may be due to AoE not functioning as well) and Bosses were cranked too far down. It takes more effort to take out the trash mobs than the bosses - the bosses go down too easy.
      • Cyrodiil Delves, boss spawn rate is still way to low, all mobs (boss and trash, alike) feel like they have been dialed down too far.
    • Trials AA: First and second boss (Storm Atro and Foundation Atro), with new visual effects, sometimes makes it very difficult to distinguish safe areas (gold light for first, non - red for second). Dialing down visual effects in settings should not be required
    • Siege Engine camera views are still horrible, more often than not. Zoom does not help with trees and various other obstuctions and limited angles. Consider lowering the alpha on these things when using camera aim.
    • Misc Vet Dungeons and DSA rounds: It almost seems as if even more visual clutter has been added to obscure camera view in 3rd person (leaves, vines, etc.) Great for immersion - lousy for aiming at a target.
    • Justice: Option to steal stand alone items (fruit on a table, for instance) should only be present if stealthed. Would prevent the lacking targeting system from resulting in an unintended theft.

    I have not seen this specific enlightenment issue in the forum, so I would like to mention it here.

    I was tracking the pool of available enlightenment xp with /script d(GetEnlightenedPool("player")) and found rather eratic values.

    While waiting for a group, the values changed like this:

    82k (left from yesterday) -> 182k (+ 100k daily amount) -> 199k (+17k?!) -> 100.000 (exactly?!)

    I killed a few deers and maybe a couple of level 20 mobs, but nothing else, that would explain these fluctuations.

    Very strange...

    My guild and I think crit is bugged and is either showing more than it gives on the tooltip, or is giving less in game than the tooltip. Most of us only have 30-40 crit atm but for 400s long parces the most anyone can crit for is around 15%.

    Also the prodigy passive from light armor is not showing up under active effects and is not being calculated into the total crit value. We have tried a full 5 piece set as well as wearing 7/7 light and it does not appear to apply the prodigy passive. Concentration works and shows up, but no Prodigy.

    soo whats up with spell crit ZOS ?

    The new heavy attack animation for the destro staff looks like it was taken directly from a tennis match. I wonder why I would want to swing my staff sidewards nowadays?

    I've also noticed some destro staff skills do their animation but don't do anything at all (or completely vice versa when the animation wouldn't play but it does actually hit). Like Destructive Touch and its knockback when using a flame staff. It mostly hits at the first attempt, but not anymore after this.
    While I was grinding and testing for a bit in a Gold zone in the Dominion today, I was really hoping no one saw me. I (my character) was moving like someone who never ever played a game where combat was involved. It's really awkward.

    About the missing animated magelight ball I'm not really unhappy, but now I can barely distinguish if it's still toggled or if it's just Surge (when playing with a Sorcerer character), they look almost identical around the arms.



    Other bugs or issues I've noticed (or still aren't fixed) after my last postings here:

    - Every single loading screen still takes up to 30 minutes, including from login to character select, from there to in-game, and in the game it's every interior which has a loading door when trying to enter or exit it, same with wayshrines and even /reloadui. Only the Eight might know the reason for this since I didn't have this issue before the update, and my PC is near the recommended requirements (higher end) plus the drivers are updated. Like this, the game is still unplayable; only if I don't move around much I can stay for a while before it crashes anyways.

    - Icons from items and skills take about 1-2 minutes to show up, no matter if inventory/bank or at the crafting stations, and of course in the skill menu.

    - NPCs, furniture, crafting tables and even whole buildings often take up to 10 minutes to show up (not always, though) when zoning or just logged in. One time I was sprinting on my horse through Rawl'kha when I ended up in the "air" and thought it's floating again (happened before, a few times). Until a house with stairs outside popped up right under my character on the horse, the horse was facing the door upstairs. I'm not sure what the scarier part was..
    The other annoying part about missing NPCs and furniture is when stealthing around. Who knows where I can walk or where I can't or if someone is in sight; I simply don't see it until every single thing slowly pops up, piece by piece.

    - Random loading screens wherever I go and even when I stand still, mostly they occur in crowded cities, though. Not funny anymore at all when you consider the up-to-30-minutes loading screens! Also not funny when in the middle of a conversation in the chat.

    - No, the memory is fine and enough for the game, if you might wonder if not (I'm sure you do).

    - Items still get "repaired" (message in the upper right corner)

    - I had problems trying to click on a wayshrine/map; worked after several attempts but ended in a crash during.. take a guess.. a long loading screen.

    - The two Shades (NB skill) only showed up after combat several times, while the combat itself worked like normal (besides of the staff issue; I'm using staves with all my characters and classes). Not helpful.


    I know I found other bugs as well but I can't remember them right now; I'm too confused and occupied from the loading screen issue.


    If I may add my humble opinion: I do love the game and also the new update with its new features, but, considering all the bugs (also which others have posted and reported already) and the amount of new bugs additional to many old ones, it's a nightmare.
    It's not like the game is for free, we all paid a subscription fee (up until next week) and we are players, no paying beta testers and bug reporters. I wouldn't say anything if it's just about a handful of bugs which couldn't be fixed in time or occured later when it's live, but reading this thread tells me it's just a handful of things that still work. A nightmare.

    The new 1.6 staff heavy attack animation: Playing a tennis match. While constipated. Flames now dangerously close to hair whilst light attacks are firing blanks and a fresh set of self esteem issues in case anyone JUST SAW THAT.

    SO. AWKWARD. ZOS. Ever heard of a little saying that goes "if it ain't broke, don't fix it"? The one single thing you didn't need to fix. The irony is astounding.

    Magelight: ball is supposed to be there so I'm like: just give me the damn ball, you know? My toon goes to cast it and looks like she is hitting herself in the face. Which is what I'm am going to do now. Scrub out.

    Don't panic guys, this is the last patch we'll get during paid Beta.

    When the game releases on March 17th, it'll be all smooth & shiny :smile:

    Then, in June, when it releases for the target market, we can expect some new content. Maybe.

    It would be great if that was true. It has been 1 year and the game still has so many silly bugs, so i won't hold my breath waiting to play this game without expecting to encounter bugs that will make me log off just because i can't finish a bugged quest.
