Been driving me nuts since Summerset.
Lost so many fights cause of locked in sprint and can't use abilities.
Only happens to me in pvp regardless of lag or not.

    Happened 3 times in 2 hours to me tonight, all 3 times in the middle of battle. Getting real *** sick of it.

    This such a game breaking bug, be it PvP (in BGs, IC or Cyro) or PvE, made me rage quit more than once. Either give us a step by step solution for how not to let it happen or fix this bug in the next incremental patch.

    It's not fun when I am about to win and lose just because of a bug.

    Only way for me to not let it happen is to never sprint while attacking a target.
    Had to rebind my sprintbutton on my controller so I don't push L3 down in the heat of the moment and start sprint.

    To fix this, simply tap sprint again maybe a couple of times in rapid succession. This will at least allow you to play the game while waiting for a fix.
    Here since Beta.

    Characters: All of them, both Stamina and Magicka.

    Har har. -_-
    My point was, don't hold your breath. They haven't fixed the staff bug in over a year. Do you really think they're gonna fix the sprint bug in a few weeks/months?

    Whilst standing still, but yeah that usually works. Or run yourself out of stamina, best we've got

    It happens most amongst laggy large zergs, and has killed me more than once.

    Seriously Cyrodiil PvP is in a much worse state than when I left it a year and half ago for lag related bugs like this.

    I must be a glutton for punishment.

    Running myself out of Stamina is the only thing that has worked for me...

    No doubt...

    The only thing you can do if (from my experience) this happens to you during a fight is try to run away...

    It’s not a bug. It’s intended. Same as how sound used to cut out when the server couldn’t handle all the calculations. When too many spells are going off, the game will shut off your skills and give you a time out because it can’t crunch all the spell calculations.

    Temporary solution: Stop stacking into Vivec which is a laggy mess with queue times. Try Shor.
