- Getting hit by Death's Wind pushback proc and staying locked in knocked down position for 30+ seconds.
- toggling in/out of combat for minutes on end without doing anything
- remaining in-combat for ages
- combat skills locking up with you being unable to cast/do any skill, goes away after hammering ESC
- spamming Entropy with Dual Wield and your animation becoming stuck in a certain pose (only anim issue, no effect on gameplay)

More to add?

    Usually activating a potion then dodge rolling fixes the charge lock, at least it does for Templar Toppling Charge.
    Not ideal, but a temporary solution till bug is fixed

    I recognize these as two of the most annoying long standing bugs. Being stuck "in combat" is usually only an issue in PvP. And not being able to use skills can be also be fixed by opening your character sheet or inventory (this bug usually occurs in dungeons, I find).

    The only bug I have experienced so far has to do with werewolf's pounce ability. Two times (out of hundreds of times that I've used it) it'll freeze me in the "about to pounce" animation/pose and I can move around freely. I, however, cannot use any abilities or attack/block. This problem resolves itself whenever I leave werewolf form. Again, its only ever happened 2 times ever, so its not a big deal, but still should be fixed.

    Also, can we have some extra animations for werewolf form? Its not a bug per say, but when I open a door or loot something or use a quest objective in werewolf form it looks weird that I am just standing there.

    Forming a group and no one is the leader!

    Being told at Level 20 your veteran rank is not high enough to enter a dungeon!!!!

    Noticed a new one on my Sorc, when picking pockets if I'm caught I'm unable to use any skills to attack! anyone else get this!

    But the combat bug is still the most annoying, being unable to use any skills is a pretty massive bug that has still not been fixed. (only been a year though, so may be we should cut them some slack!)

    Drain ability for vampires, the animation gets stuck. Typically rolling will "unstick" it.

    Werewolf transformation will bug out and get stuck mid-transformation if you are wearing a costume.

    Long loading screens and random loading screens...still not fixed!
    Having to log out and back in to receive mail.
    Weapon swap is still very klunky and does not work well.
    Passives that stops working when you die or not work at all - apparently this is still happening after how many times of fixing it.

    2 and 3 can be very easily alleviated by allowing you to actually do stuff while in combat like mount, pick things up and enter doors.

    Yes and no... being in-combat also means your regen is severely cut. I'd rather have them fix the root cause than to work around it like that.

    A nice list of things that ZOS simply cannot fix. Why do you even bother trying anymore? I gave up on ZOS having the ability or talent to actually fix bugs.

    You can`t expect them to fix bugs and still create content for the cash store and work on the consel. The 10 months of paying a sub before Free 2 play was announced was pretty much the same.
    Many bugs were still in game , but the sub money was needed to pay for setting up the cash store and free 2 play switch.

    Now their issue is the only way they get paid is when people buy junk from the cash store and people that still pay a dub. so pretty much the majority of resources will be spent creating that next new shiny to put in the cash store so they get a paycheck.

    At the Banker, clicking to enter your guild bank and get the timer circle going around and around. Have to click in and out several times to get to see the guild bank. Minor compared to others as it isn't affecting combat, but annoying and if we are listing ancient unfixed bugs this was happening on pts before the first beta weekends even started.

    Here is one I never see mentioned...

    While in "quickslot mode" in inventory, trying to scroll down to the bottom of the list of slottable items will return you to the top of the list over and over.

    This happens everytime you are in combat I think. I have encountered this issue since day 1 :)

    Restoration is a perfectly valid school of magic, and don't let anyone tell you otherwise! - Spells and incantations for those with the talent to cast them!

    LOL shaming and naming!

    If these bugs were an easy fix, ZoS probably would have gotten them fixed quickly. There's no reason they wouldn't as far as I can guess.

    Leads me to guess that these a lot of these long lasting bugs are deep in the code, or complicated, or interwoven with lots of other code/functions. In which case this would involve lots of time and testing. Possibly requiring a lot of revamping of major related code IF it's even possible without breaking lots of other game code.

    Soooooooooooooo, get cozy and comfy, they are probably going to be around for a lot longer.

    Its pretty much a rule in all MMOs that ancient bugs never get fixed if they dont allow any exploits. So you might as well rename this thread to something like 'unexpected game mechanics'.

    I kid you not, a few times that my skills were not working or I couldn't speak to anyone or was trapped on a mount I just entered the crown store and the fact that it zooms in and you can preview your character seems to clear a few things up!
