List of new Combat bugs/issues introduced by 2.1

LegendaryChef · October 2015

I completely forgot to add this on earlier but I'm not sure if it's intended or not if I'm honest as I posted it on the forums and didn't get a reply. Evil hunter procs on the players health if they are bit by shield breaker. So it's not just a 2k hit, your talking up to like 11k through the shield if their weapon damage is stupidly high. As I said I'm not 100% sure if it's intended or not but I tested it with a friend and it 100% goes through and hit the health with the shield breaker.

Health desync after getting hit with a cast time ability bug is back. Quite annoying. Especially as a templar who could heal himself

Emperor buff (additional hp scaled to your level) when your faction doesn't have emperor). We've been running with the emp buff on a campaign where an enemy faction controls the entire map... I don't mind the bug but i'm sure my enemies do ^^

And the opposite is happening as well. We were in a campaign (Axe) where a guildmate was emp but noone in our alliance would get the emp health buff.
Then we changed to a campaign (I think the same campaign you guys were in, Spellbreaker?) with a different alliance emp and everyone of us had the health buff.

Can't Break Free / Block - I've had this happen to me a half dozen times now and it's never happened prior to 1.7 (I have had the can't use *any* ability my whole bar is permanently greyed out bug that I believe is caused by crushing shock prior to 1.6...that bug is characterized by being able to break-free continuously). It is caused by something in PvP combat as it has never happened in PvE to me. Dying doesn't fix this. You often think you're just hit with the "unable to break free bug" time and time again but when you hold your right mouse button your character doesn't block. /reloadui or relogging fixes the issue.

Regarding your bar being greyed out in the heat of battle, I find that pressing the shift key ( usually twice ) fixes this for whatever reason.

Yeah this one is odd and different from that one. My abilities work perfectly but I just can't hold block at all. Sprinting will also often fix the "All your abilities are greyed out" bug. That one is definitely far more prevalent in 1.7 as well although I can't recall if it is new to 1.7 (2.1).

from what someone in my guild was saying, it happens when people press CTRL+Shift and that messes something up, not sure myself, i've never actually encounter the bug.

not being able to break free with full stamina on the other hand is the story of my life this patch

G0ku · October 2015

Experienced all these except the sorc-specific ones.

plus:

I can´t go in IC with my main anymore. I changed gear between chars but whatever I do my main gets double the damage than my other chars. Realised it after getting one-shot by a stamina nb several times. Switched gear from my imp templar to my altmer templar and had no problems hunting the nb down, same gear same skill setup. This made me curious and I started to test the damage mobs do to me - my imp templar is somehow bugged in IC although the battle spirit buff shows in character sheet...

Yeah there are a lot of people reporting the battle spirit not being applied bug. I've never experienced this myself but can anyone confirm it's new with 1.7

Bolt Escape no forward momentum bug
When you used to cast bolt escape your forward momentum would carry you slightly forward. Now, you drop straight down from the end of your bolt. This has made the "feel" of using bolt escape to become very choppy and disjointed and it makes the ability far less fun. I'm not sure if this was an intended change or a bug but would love clarification.

This doesnt just make it less fun, it ruins the functionality of the ability. Any ground you might have gained is lost the moment you are rooted in the air and fall slowly to the ground. Thats what it is essentially. A midair self root that denies the laws of motion. Between this and the removal of directional control with the camera, they have basically gutted this ability for maneuverability.

Of all the nerfs to Bolt Escape, the most impactful may have been these "unintentional" changes/ninja nerfs. Cost nerfs cant be worked around but this changes the very mechanics of the ability. The practical upshot of these changes are that most gap closers now hard counter bolt escape. At least in my experience after this list patch. Even when weaving in a dodge roll after bolting, it seems like anyone spamming a gap closer can keep up with you effortlessly. Before, it was possible but it took a bit of skill.

RE: Eclipse bug.

This was happening in 1.6 (I know of one guildie in particular who experienced this daily then). It appears to have become more frequent and seems to impact a wider pool of people since 2.1 however.

k2blader · October 2015

Not sure if this is a "bug" but..

Does anyone else notice sometimes after transiting or entering/exiting a door, you cannot cast any abilities for 30+ seconds? The bar isn't greyed out or anything but any button you press does absolutely nothing. So you're basically a free kill if you get near enemy action.

It doesn't seem like lag to me because I can see folks fighting/moving around me. It's just that my own skills are completely unusable for a long time..

Leaped half the way from sejanus to BRK. Totally worth it.

MishMash · October 2015

This has been happening to me often. Both bars are unavailable and in the heat of battle and hitting my Shift key twice is not the fix I've hoped for. While in battle and not being able to use skills and just having the ability to use my heavy/light attacks has been very annoying..

I am also having the Mount Bug again, and this time it seems to last much longer. I can keep up with a 60pt horse on foot for a short time, but like anything I do run out of steam and usually fall behind from the group. Any ideas on how to lessen this Mount Bug? Things I've tried... Switch weapons, dodge roll, use my utility bar, but nothing is working so far.

Can you make the chal mine --> chal courtyard?!

FENGRUSH · October 2015

Cap closers ministunning you is pretty annoying, probably the thing that drives me nuts more than anything else right now. Especially when ambush doesnt obey typical LoS rules that every other gap closer has with respect to terrain.

this 10000000 times, makes it impossible to escape when someone is spamming ambush, you are stunned/silenced 90% of the time.

I made warden mine -> warden courtyard, and I could respawn on the spot because it was a pve death. Gonna start making flying dk raids

Yep, and once you get like 2-3 NBs doing this, even with immoveable or CC immunity you are literally disabled worse than being knocked down. There is no break free, there is nothing. There is only inevitable death!

PVP NPC deaths count as PVP deaths, I don't know how you pulled that off that rez but I'm curious.

Wollust · October 2015

There seem to be areas in Cyrodiil where you lose battle spirit upon entering. One was above glade or aleswell i think. We killed an enemy group, got their scroll and started to run. Suddendly people started to lose the battlespirit buff, just for it to be back a few seconds later. Multiple times.
I think I lost and got it back 4 times in maybe half a minute. After leaving that area (which seems to be some kinda quest area? Do not have much knowledge about the PVE in Cyrodiil) everything was fine.

Fall damage probably, it counts as a pve death.

Yeah I've died from using dodge roll as 10 people use gap closers on me. Was a non-vet emperor tank and wouldn't of died otherwise.

Old old bug that has always been there, there's also the spirgan forest area west of Nickel. Just reveals more poor coding, for some reason Battle Spirit has to be tagged as active in each "zone" in Cyrodiil, eg. Arrius Ground, Arrius Lumber, Arius Mines, ect - every time a new area name pops up on your screen you are moving between these zones. You lose Battle Spirit on entering some of those zones because the bugged zone is not tagged as having Battle Spirit active.

Either that or the buff is coded as being added to any zone that is tagged as "in Cyrodiil", and those bugged zones are missing that tag. Could be same reason that Orsinium was having the problem w/ Battle Spirit being active in there; the whole zone was probably tagged as "in Cyrodiil".

CN_Daniel · October 2015

There are times you cannot fix the 'grey-bar' problem, you just have to wait. It always happens RIGHT as something server intense is happening.

I lead my troops into battle at least once per night not being able to cast. I just run and stand there....LOL

Oh and while we're talking about bugs, what about how Templar Purify literally "purges" off any spell projectiles coming at them in midair?

I've had issues where after death, I'll respawn and be unable to initiate left or right click motions with my mouse until I do a /reloadui. As in I can't light attack, I can't even select things... my mouse buttons literally will not work until I reload.
