Used to be I only got this in vMA but now I am seeing it in every type of content, even pvp...
Your character while during doing damage in rotations / animation canceling etc...will start to randomly charge up a heavy attack and then your stuck with it until it finishes. Can't cancel, can't block cancel can't do anything but stand there waiting for the heavy attack to finish, completely stuck in the animation.
Never asked for a heavy attack but because it gets stuck in animation from start to finish it is basically a stun on yourself from a bugged heavy attack you didn't ask for...
You could be light attacking and out of no where your character starts to charge a heavy attack for no reason and your just stuck in animation until it finishes, can't use skill's, can't cancel the heavy attack, can't light attack, can still move but that's it...

Oh crap I just changed again from damage to healer build today, forgot about that, this could literally cause a lost survivor for your group in trials or dungeons...
Come on ZOS any word?

✭Been this way forever, it's a new feature to slow combat down. Get used to it. Zos has proven they cant fix much if anything.1 -

✭I gave up reporting my bugs, everyone always just tells me they don't exist or that my rig is crap, which it is but... Apparently I'm not the only one having the problem. LOL3 -
TheKingofSass✭✭✭✭Oh god, this freaking bug. Its infuriating. It would happen every now and then but lately it has gotten worse. Can't properly do my rotation and causes me to make mistakes on unwanted situation. That this bug still exists is an embarrassment, and highly unacceptable at this rate.
Instead focusing on new dlcs and cosmetic nonsense, take the time to actually fix your game!! For an mmo this big with bugs like these is just hilariously pathetic."Remember, darkness does not always equate to evil, just as light does not always bring good."

getting randomly in combat on a warden - please also fix

do not get your hopes up for a fix anytime soon

✭I agree. This has been a thing far too long now. Even after having time away from the game until the recent patch I found it still hasn’t been fixed.
Getting a quest and being frozen in place is still a thing. Food buffs being glitched not giving correct amount. Far too many to list.PC NA - GreggsSausageRoll1 -
TheDarkShadow✭✭✭✭✭
✭It will be fixed after they fixed templar sweep ult bug, which also make you stuck in the animation, except the animation won't end, unless you wait till combat end, dodge roll, swap bar, block... or all of those actions combine I'm not even sure.Edited by TheDarkShadow on October 7, 2018 1:29PM1 -
daemonor✭✭✭✭wow finally, i thought my mouse is broken or something but i keep getting this random heavy attack with staves and its beyond infuriating.. @TheDarkShadow glad (not really) that im no the only one getting bugged sweeps aswell.2

GreenHere✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭Sucks to jump on the negative bandwagon, but I have to agree that I doubt this is being fixed (or even acknowledged) any time soon. Someone above linked a thread that started in this year, but I started experiencing these sort of issues back in... I wanna say Homestead patch? When was that? Beginning of 2017? It's been a long time, since well before Summerset, that this sort of things started happening to me and people I play with. On PC using a gamepad, fwiw.
So yeah... Learn to live with it is the best advice I can offer.

✭I’ve had this happen but I didn’t realize it was a bug. I just thought it was something resulting from a combination of button spamming and lag... insightful for you!PS4 NA

✭This has been an issue since last year (if not longer) and has gotten progressively worse. They aren't going to fix it. They probably can't, and are staying silent on the matter because saying they can't fix it would be rather embarrassing.
Hopefully this is proven wrong down the road, but after this long? I only expect it to get worse.Edited by Numerikuu on October 7, 2018 1:19PM1 -
Zer0oo✭✭✭✭✭
✭Hey let's just make a list of bugs that are in the game for at least one year but are not likely to get fixed anytime soon- fix lag
- fix fps dropping after long fight
- fix grp-finder
- fix getting feared into walls
- fix ambush through doors
- fix getting chained through doors
- portals in vAA not working till everyone jumps like a monkey
- stuck in combat
- randomly getting in combat on a warden
- double cast on targeted ground aoe in lag or not going off
- fix clunky heavy attack animation that will you get stuck in
- there are still a lot of places in cyro where you can get stuck in and they are known since ages
too lazy to write more point but you get it, they either can not fix them or they do not care

Troneon✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭✭Come on ZOS this would be classed as a blocker from releasing a patch in any other game. It literally blocks you from doing anything with your character for seconds at a time...which in this twitch fest of a game where you need to react to one shot mechanics every few seconds makes ALOT of difference...

boorrr_flySoul ShrivenSorry for bringing this up again , but why the hell this bug is still in the game? I switched to mag dpses and this thing gives so much frustration I can't even focus on practicing rotation because it happens at least half the time. And no responses from ZOS in any thread related to this problem.3

Donlup✭✭✭If you are spamming light attack on barswap it tends to happen more often from what I found might be some kinda input buffer problem or such (no idea how it works in eso but speaking from experiance with other games) so on barswaps try only to do one light attack and have it timed correctly it fixed it for me any how i know its a stupid work around but try it.0
