Heavy-attack for lightning staff sometimes doesn't work at all!

Happens randomly, but when it does, it's a game breaker, especially in Battlegrounds with limited time and gear.

The staff simply stops working and instead of the heavy-attack animation produces a "hiccup" - character tries to reach the enemy player but fails and turns back.

@ZOS_GinaBruno I'd appreciate if you'd at least look at this. It's not that infrequent. Happens approx. in 1 out of 7 matches, no addons (except Master Merchant), PC EU.

    Hi Maboleth

    Sad to say, but what you're describing also frequently happens to me. Along with losing my staff altogether. Always when things get heavy.

    Well, it's starting to get more and more annoying. Happens exclusively to lightning staff. Resto is working fine.

    When this glitch happens, I'm like doing BGs with 1 weapon. :(

    Still happens periodically, especially in BGs...

    Yes I get this too - not the typical bug where you can release the trigger and try targeting again and be successful. This one just denies you the use of the staff for a period of time.

    Same here, my Pet Sorc frequently just stands there staring into the void when she's supposed to be heavy attacking ...

    Yes, this is happening to a lot of guys, attack animations are a little messed up, sometimes they just dont work. And this is happening after Wolfhunter dlc.

    ALSO that super ANNOYING issue when you port somewhere and your weapons VANISH, that happens really often, I always change the outfit on the character screen to fix it.

    You're better off adding to the current other thread on this which has more info on when and why this started and how it happens:
