The second half of my rotation, I weave in heavy attacks and it seems like recently, I have to have my camera dead set on a specific enemy in order for the HA to fire properly, otherwise, I'm holding the button, my toon is in the casting position before the HA fires, but nothing happens. I then have to actually tilt my camera angle differently in order for it to register. Didn't seem to have this problem two weeks ago.
I've been doing everything normal as always with my lightning staves. Nothing has changed for me.

no answer - no fix
maybe if it gets more attention in general
so once more ZOS please address this problem finally and fix it - pretty please with sprinkles on top
(oh and it´s PC EU too and not just me)
I'm getting the exact same issue but on the PC version...

Doing a light attack, bar swap again, or casting an ability sometimes clears it but not always. Sometimes have to bar swap twice. Hope this can get hotfixed.

Oh dear its happened again, every time after a massive new DLC the base game gets screwed up and stuttering.
I am a magsorc using lightning staff.
I knew there was going to be major issues as soon as I came out the bank in Davon's Watch. Stuttering all the way to the crafting writs to get my tempers then off to Cyrodiil.
All went stuttering and slow until 'total lock up' frozen screen with looping whooshing sound'. Gave it at least 30 secs in case it caught up but noooo!
Occasionally we all get a big freeze and then visual animations start pinging and it all catches up again but this was different.
This time just a frozen screen in battle at an outpost with no warning. Just bang! No option for me except to hold PS button and close. No option for error report - nothing.
Re-load game, it happened to me 5 times last night in the current campaign 25 days to go.
When I played the game the day before the Summerset update not one problem at all other than the usual lag.
I thought the freeze problem as 'Aurielle' described was caused by my Lightning staff heavy attack when switching bars but then it just froze again when I was actually just standing in the outpost doing nothing but there was still large battle going on, very bad frame rate. Like a about 5 FPS.
Sort this out ASAP, I can't play like this. I feel I work harder in this game than my job!
Also ZOS please fix this:
As well as the obvious Summerset patch problem written above, please also fix this:-
When a player experiences a general crash or disconnection, please make sure his / her character is instantly removed from the server when in battle. This does not happen because when you log back in you are spawned in dead on the floor where you left off. Someone killed you even though you were not actually playing the game. What an easy kill for them to just see a player standing, puts up no fight whatsoever and enemy gets full AP for it.
