So I go to the battlefield and everyone around me suddenly freezes up, I can run about but I can't attack and use my abilities. Had to quit and start again, very annoying when I'm in a group and this happens.

    You are losing connection to the server. Happens quite regularly when there are a lot of effects going on at a big fight. Usually if you wait it will kick you and tell you that you lost connection.

    You got logged out there. Simple test: press block. If it doesn't drop after you release the button, you are logged out, your client just hasn't noticed yet.

    How can I prevent this from happening? I am on a gigabit connection to the internet.

    That happened to me. It is pretty cool when it happens for the first time. It's like your character is in one of those movies that everything other than yourself is frozen in time. I was just disappointed that I couldn't swap out some people's weapons for different weapons or move a siege weapon to hit their own team mates.

    Lower your resolution used to help. Turning off the plants helped a little. Really there isn't much you can do. ZOS are still trying to fix things.

    I've had this, its like time has stopped for everyone apart from yourself. People are frozen mid attack. Was quite cool the first time, the 2nd and 3rd not so much...

    Last time it happened to me the client managed to reconnect a few minutes later. One moment I was in a frozen battle field, the next moment everything was gone bar a corpse or two.

    Not elite, not the best. Just enjoying ESO.
    Not the worst either. "Casual" != "totally ignorant"
