    I'm still getting this bug when I block enemy players in cyrodiil. When this happens I can gain ultimate from my blood spawn helmet and by killing enemy players due to the combat frenzy passive but the buff that is supposed to be applied from light attacks, healing, and blocking does not work until I relog.

    My buddy (Templar) gets this bug multiple times a night, he is a tanky build, based on everyone's input I would guess it definitely has something to do with large amounts of incoming damage. If anyone (NA) wants to test I'm down just pm me in game some time

    For me the bug appears only when I die. After I die I am not able any more to generate ultimate from light attacks and blocking. Only from combat frenzy and Blood spawn set.
    I guess that the bug is complex and ZoS are buying time and that's why they do not acknowledge it. Probably they dont know how to fix it. Another point is that it mostly appears in PvP and PvP is with less priority than PvE and Console release.

    Noticed the bug first time ingame due to this thread. The guy quoted explains how I experienced it. When it occurs, just combat frenzy & kills generate ult, no lights or heavies contribute until I relog.

    Have to admit I am shocked there has been no acknowledgement! This is quite a serious bug from a PvP perspective and I am shocked @ZOS_JessicaFolsom / @ZOS_GinaBruno haven't at least indicated they are looking into it.

    Totally agree, i mean i cant even PvP on my DK cause this occurs so much for me, i literally spend more time restarting and relogging than ingame play if you dont count for the horse simulator action that i love so much cause i die from this very annoying bug 24/7 :(

    one guy from your grp has the bug = it affects whole grp, so that guy must either relog, or kick him :D (tested)

    problem ofc is, if multiple ppl have this issue, then its kinda meeh...

    Yesterday tested bandicam and when checked record i observed weird thing on my dk friend. He spammed wings and snb reflect skill (defensive stance)and blocking while eclipsed. It resulted in visual bug: for now each reflect of total dark cause sun lights round sphere, however while bugged on my friend - eclipse procced this visual instantly like it reflecting 100500 projectiles in a sec(seems projectiles just bugged coz double reflect thx to new reflect mechanic read below), looked like christmas tree and very impressive(sadly i erased video record :s coz deleted it before my friend told me that he recieved ult generation bug after respawn). After i observed this my thoughts are: As i already told in templar topic of bugged templar skills, zos changed reflection mechanic in 1.6 for reflective skills [i tested eclipse vs reflective stance and reflective scale in addition to Nikula's heavy armor 5set bonus] - (if you have reflective buff on and eclipse debuff on yourself - magical projectile only have reflect animation without causing damage to caster or target). So i think changed reflect mechanic (may be unintentionally) and new ult generation, i.e. recieving ult buff during block or light/heavy attacks causing ult generation bug. If you reflecting projectiles that caused by light/heavy staffs attacks with reflect skills(defensive stance, reflective scale, nikula's armor)while eclipsed (that should cause ult buff after reflected light/heavy [staff] attacks that are reflectable) or blockcasting spells while eclipsed (in theory blocked reflected projectiles must proc ult buff) may cause reflection bug; when you wiped all negative effects including reflective debuffs are dispelled from you, however i think several eclipses on 1 target or eclipse while negated also can cause error in code of ult generation coz it may counted after death as debuff if you have active ult buff while double reflected or blocked projectiles with possibility of active eclipse debuff. At least it is my theory about broken Eclipse code.
    P.S. I may think that class AOE attacks/ultimates may proc ult bug too somehow, c'mon just look on dk who casting talons while eclipsed. "Flying" dks forever!
    P.S.S. After zos fixed Eclipse and templars started to use it, my friends reported that they recieving ult bug more often.
    P.S.S.S. I hope you understood what i typed about in this long post.
    P.S.S.S.S. Btw like the first days of 1.6 pts Total Dark may cause hp desync bug again o:).
    P.S.S.S.S.S. If you are reading this post scriptum you recieved +1 wisdom buff.

    You are lucky. I have it everytime when I die. And it is not possible to relog everytime so I just play without ultimate.

    Could Combat Frenzy be the cause of it? Never had it on any character who doesn't have Combat Frenzy, only on one of my NBs that have it. And I play 90% of the time on those characters who don't. :p

    I think it does have a lot to do with the ultimate buff and ultimate being accumulated from multiple sources, so combat frenzy may well play a part.

    Could the problem be caused/exacerbated by being in a group? Maybe with someone else who has the bug in particular?

    I'm only saying this because I spend like 80% of my time solo and I think I got this bug only once or maybe twice since 1.6 hit.

    I have the bug since I became a vampire a week ago. I can cure my vampirism and reset my CP but why should I try to find what causes the bug as it is not even acknowledged by ZoS? It is their test team's job to find the bugs. As much as I like the game I have to say it: "I have never played buggier game."

    I've also had this bug, and talked with a couple other guildies who have encountered this bug.

    Relogging didn't fix it for me, I had to shut down the game entirely and restart.

    Is it related in any ways to Eclipse? If so please nerf Templars, they are a plague to this game :)

    Since ZOS has now confirmed this I can't help but laugh at all the noobs mocking OP.
    Well done OP for bringing this to the light!
