    Not on your end. Around 8 years of development time has not been enough to get weapon swap working properly.

    Yet.

    This has been an issue on the pc version since the release of the game. Don´t get your hopes up.

    Weapon Swap has an in-built cooldown of 1 second between swaps.

    In addition, if you are getting targeted by a charge attack (Teleport Strike, Critical Charge, Shield Charge, Focused Charge, Chains), your skill bar locks up an you are unable to swap weapons or use spells until the attacker arrives. This was put in by ZoS to help players catch up to bolting Sorcs.

    This one hails from far Singapore, excuse this one for his high pings. He also apologizes for any formatting/spelling errors, as he tends to answer using a mobile device.

    Insanity is the price of Knowledge. Herma-Mora and Sheogorath, this one bows before thee.

    This one does not advocate for any class to be nerfed. There are far deeper underlying issues then a simple "Class Imbalance". The Champion System is the problem. Not classes.

    Please read this before creating yet another nerf thread.

    Which console is this? I don't have the issue on Xbox and I weapon swap heavily as a sorcerer.

    its not a persistent problem and from my experiences is somewhat related to lag and dropped packets.

    It's still not fixed on pc, not by a long shot.

    its on xbox and im a sorc and i guess you dont weapon swap as fast as i need to, i mean it works its just not as responsive as i want it to be i guess, like even buttons delay i would like it to be quick but its not, like i have healing ward and harden ward mapped to "B" and "Y" i would like to just roll my thumb over them quickly and they both activate, like animation canceling,

    Maybe a different problem but sometimes when I'm in a fight I lose my weapons completely and my skill bar. I can run away be near no one and still get hit. Either 20 seconds later or death they reappear back in the spot I ran from. I assume lag but it's been happening since the maintenance from Wednesday. PS4.
    Anyone else rooting for Molag Bal?

    that just seems like a problem like a glitch or bug or something

    This issue has been around forever on PC too. Zos has made improvements but it's still no where near reliable.

    I hate the way weapon swap is set on the xbox controller. Wish I could put crouch on the left d-pad and weapon swap on the right thumbstick. Really not ideal set up now trying to move with the left thumbstick and trying to hit that left d-pad to weapon swap fast enough. Maybe I just need to be all thumbs :/

    That's actually a good idea I wouldnt mind trying that. It makes since cAuse then we wouldn't have to take our thumb off the left analog stick
