1+ year of PVP and still the exact same issues

Since launch of ESO i have been getting lots of problems in pvp, i have reached a point i ask myself, why do i even bother sometimes.

Biggest problems are:

- 10-20 FPS when 3+ players are on my screen (enemy players).
- While blocking, i still get stunned and knocked back. Fossilize and Spear shards from DC and EP constantly stun and root me, despite me blocking. Tried to replicate this on the enemy, and nothing happens to them.
- Spammed reflective scales and took full damage, did not reflect anything according to FTC.
- Could not weapon swap
- Could not drink a potion
- Could not use an ultimate
- While in a crit charge from 2H, i get knocked down and stunned from crystal fragments, invasion, spear shards.

I run a 4770K and 970s in SLI, i reduced the game to low and still get unacceptable and unplayable fps in pvp.

I submitted several tickets, did all the router port forwarding the CS asked me, nothing.

Tested this on a gaming MSI GT70 laptop, exact same issues, tested this on an office PC with medium settings, exact same issues. Even upgraded my own PC from the mainboard to the GPUs and still the same issues.

I am starting to think ZOS has done something to the AD EU servers to somehow nerf us down and give DC and EP an advantage (server wise). If that is not the case, 3 different systems on 2 different ISPs surely can not indicate a problem with the system could it?

Or am i the only one facing these issues when 3+ enemy players appear on screen?
mDKs still need a lot of love!

    Fossilize and Spear Shards are meant to go through block and root you.

    Something is wrong with your computer, I pretty much have a consistent 50 FPS when pvping...Even in massive zergs.. in fact FPS hasn't been an issue for quite a few patches...its lag from the server itself (Ping) not FPS.

    Those two abilities you mention go through block..

    If someone reflects something back at you..You'll eat the damage...For example I use to intentionally kill other DKs spamming reflect with my STamina DK with lethal arrow cause i could reflect it back at them.

    Crit Charge doesn't make you immune to CC, you'd have to hold Block while doing it.

    I think you are confusing block with cc immunity, you cannot block fossilize

    My AD DK on the EU server has good FPS and a well working Fozzilise.

    But weapon swap, using potions, the massive lag, tons of bugs..... Zenimax will never save the pvp. PvP will become worse and worse.

    Alot of those aren't issues major issues (or issues at all) Yeah I would like everything to be balanced and fixed at some point but honestly main thing I want is NO LAG and the game TO WORK.

    Being stuck in animations, cant CC break, perma rooted forced to not move. HP out of sync and sometimes you just randomly die (mainly HP out of sync :/)

    An update to just making PVP runnsmoother and more responsive would go a long way

    Guys, come on. The PvP team has been hard at work since the beginning!

    We have gotten
    - Archer NPC's, New campaign names, New campaign durations.
    - Most areas cant be jumped over by dragon leap, or bypassed by chains.
    - Removal of Mercenary NPC's, Forward camps, Deer.
    - Adjustment of strength of NPC's multiple times and their exp gain via their level
    - Adjustment of Siege Dmg
    - Scattershot works as intended, only took a year to go back and make functional
    - Got told the truth about server stability (they dont know how to fix it yet)
    - Dark anchors and delves do something now

    Sure theres been a few hiccups along the way

    1. Scourge, one of the first 90 days campaigns was accidentally deleted near completion, forcing players to try to compete against others that had a two month head start on them with zero compensation.
    2. Batswarm was able to be running on top of itself for a while at release, allowing 1v20-100, with the 1 player winning (ability teams fault).
    3. Lighting patch giving you 3-7 FPS for a month, resulting in more than a few players quitting (back when you paid for playing).
    4. Ground oils. Not sure if positive or negative, but it was definitely a hiccup either way.
    5. Many different abilities were too strong for a long while (talons, reflective scales, ect).

    Sure, imperial city has been dangled in front of us since before release, and is the heart of the lore which the game points you towards since the start, but its coming soon(TM).

    Stay positive! If we keep this up we can see more NPC balance, new campaign names and durations, and more ability nerfs in the future! And lets not forget, Imperial City is still coming!

    Broken weapon swap is by far the number one cause of death. It's amazing how around 8 years of development are not enough to get such an important element working properly. Then again, those same 8 years of development also have not yielded a Reply button in the email applet, so yeah...

    Number of people "on screen" where you are isn't necessarily the culprit of lag.

    If there are 60 people going at it across the map, you will still lag because it lags the entire server.
