[The Bug Notes] Compendium of current Bugs / Exploits

Here is a idea. Instead of worry about the damn rank reduction crap. Fix the lag in PvP. Upgrade your servers!! The crap about getting rid of the VR will never work because, Face it ZOS. You won't get it right.

So last I checked, the bug for Molag Baal in the imp sewers is still bugged. Once he is killed the first time (per server restart), the center portals will re-spawn all shiny and blue, but no mobs will come out. This makes it impossible to continue the event. Basically it did not get fixed last patch.

Toppling Charge - This needs to be added to the list. There's a super annoying bug where you get weapon lock after using it, the only way to get the use of any abilities back is to go into the crown store or your champion window. You can't roll dodge, you can't light or heavy attack, you can't switch bars, and you can't use other abilities, you can't jump - all you can do is run around. Ultimate death sentence in PVP. I would estimate it happens 1 in 10 times I use the ability (which is a lot on my main as its the only gap close for a Magicka Templar)

Bugg.
Agility and enduranceshield can not be upgraded to legendary.

Gess it goes for willpower aswell.

the skill "killers blade" is not working as it says it should.
the tool bar on the skill says it should do 300% damage to targets that are 25% or lower in health, and that simply is not true
the skill only works if the target is around 5% or lower health, not 25%
is broken ...

Doesn't the tooltip state 'up to 300%' ?

I am console so can't see damage numbers or exact enemy health percentages, so I can't be sure, but I think the issue is more with the enemies health percentage in which killer blade is working as an execute vice damage done. @dwemer_paleologist is stating Killer Blade doesn't work as an execute until around 5% health vice 25%.

Oldmanlawlor · December 2015

This has happened me a few times lately when using a way shrine, I'm honestly not pressing buttons when this happens, it happens and eventually stops.

Also, on Xbox one;

During some dungeons my Templar had infinite ultimate healing with the restoring light ultimate equipped.

Camera gets stuck in third person.

Can sometimes take up to 9 times to call my horse.

Randomly during battle trying to heavy attack makes my character put his weapon away.

Killer's Blade does work as an Execute from 25% on.
Usually those executes do not deal the full 300% extra damage immediatly. The 300% applies for a theoretical point where the target has exactly 0 health. In other words: The damage will be massively increased from 25% on (unless stated otherwise) and will gain more and more until it reaches 300% extra damage at 0 % health of your target.

everything in the thread should be up to date now (except for questionable issues where I need more info / confirmation)

Eyecon74 · December 2015

Last Saturday (12/12) we had an odd incident, 4 man team in WGT on Vet 16 on last boss, Xbox Live decided to play up and kicked 2 of the team, we got 2 others in, Xbox Live now kicks the original 2 members, again we get 2 other players in but one of them is unable to travel to the dungeon and gets the 'Instance is Full, unable to travel to player' message even though there are only 4 of us in the group.
I travel out of the dungeon and the other player can now jump in, when I try to get back into the dungeon I get the same message.. I am assuming this is just because Xbox Live was being an right pain in the rear this weekend and it may have messed up some of the grouping data in ESO thinking there were more than 4 people in the group, nonetheless it was annoying, luckily the team was skilled enough to 3 man Molag Kena..

i would like to re-instate my comment since my intention for the report was completely misguided on its original meaning.

here is what i meant to say and should have said from the begining.

"the skill "killers blade" is not working as it says it should.

I'm sorry but the tooltip does not say that.

Thrust a magic blade with lethal precision to stab an enemy for x Magic Damage. Causes 300% more damage to low health targets.

And the low health mechanic is working as described by me earlier. 300% extra dmg will be reached at 0% health of your target. It is starting to scale up towards the 300% from 25% onwards.
Of course this mechanics isn't described anywhere in the tooltip and this might be misleading but that's how it always worked and I'm pretty sure it's intended to work this way.

@Xantaria werewolf howl is currently being reflected by defensive stance when it should not be -- howl is not a spell, it is stamina based.

Kilnerdyne · December 2015

Using the /letter Emote after using different emotes such as /leanbackcoin, /flute, /lute, /sweep, /rake, /ritual, /danceRACE etc. which don't require you to move out of a standing position much will allow you to move while doing the /emote.

You can heal, dps, jump, run etc. while doing your favourite emote

This is unintended but... does it need fixing? Definitely not, this is hilarious. Very fun

Sadly it counts as a projectile ... I don't know if it is intended ... But it is definitely not a spell.

Seems to be working as it should? I don't see what's wrong about this. As long as you are CC'd you are not immune to CC yyet making you vulnerable to fear.

Jura23 · December 2015

This happens on regular basis when I use Resolving Vigor or Elude and cancel it with a swap. My weapon gets stuck in my hands no matter which bar I am on. Only reload of UI fixes it. Happens with both types of weapon. This is me holding bow:

But if I stun you, I cannot fear you while you are stunned.

As far as I know, you can. Why not? You are not immune during the stun.

You cannot fear someone who is stunned. At least there is no animation for fear.

That is correct, because as he is stunned there is no room to display the fear. The effect still applies though and the animation will show as soon as the stun ends.

Alessia's Bulwark doesn't update values on the character sheet OR IN GAME (tested this morning) for boosting physical resistance at the "4 piece" mark. The first two bonuses seem to have an effect. I have sent in a report to ZoS. If you have the Bulwark set, please do the same.

This broke sometime over the last two patches or so.

Asayre · December 2015

@Peekachu99, I didn't have any problems with my Alessia's Bulwark. I'm using Legendary V16 gear. Here are the result of me putting on Alessia's Bulwark

In the 5th column, 'Difference' is 'Increase in Physical Resistance' - 'Value of armour piece added'. An additional 362 should be removed for row 4 and 5 because Resolve increases armour by 362 per Heavy armour piece. Then I get an increase of 1935 when I have 2 and 4 pieces of Alessia's Bulwark.

There are two bugs with Crescent Sweep
1. It does less than the tooltip damage
2. When it crits, it does not take into account Elfborn (it may be taking into account Piercing Strikes but I did not test this)

In the image above, I am attacking an effectively 0 resistance mob. Puncturing sweep does 2808 base damage and 4970 when it crits. My crit multiplier is 0.77 (0.5 base + 0.1 Piercing Spear + 0.17 Elfborn). The base damage of 2808 is exactly 2.4 times the tooltip value of Puncturing Sweep which is 1170. However Crescent Sweep deals 7061 damage which is less than the tooltip value of 8322. The DoT ticks of Crescent Sweep does 3927 base damage and 6951 on crits. The 3927 matches the tooltip value of 3927 and the crit multiplier here is still 0.77.

In this second image, Puncturing Sweep and DoT ticks of Crescent Sweep does the same damage as before. When Crescent Sweep crits, it deals 11298 damage. This means the crit multiplier for Crescent Sweep is 0.6 (11298/7061). This suggest that Elfborn is not being applied correct to the initial damage of Crescent Sweep but Elfborn is applied correctly to the DoT ticks of Crescent Sweep.

My 4th piece is a shield, and it doesn't register.
