This bug is ruining PVP, and I consider it game-breaking

For people who do not PVP, let me explain a bug that is what I consider game-breaking. There is a bug that causes you to stay stuck in combat.
While stuck in combat, you cannot:
1) mount your mount to ride to a new location
2) use transitus shrines to move to a new location
3) use Keep Recall stones
4) check your mail
Reloading your UI does not get rid of your combat status.
You have to die, or suicide, to end it.
In a fast paced environment like PVP you have to be able to move around your map. Keep Recall Stones are virtually useless when stuck in combat. You stand around and wait and wait and wait and wait, hide, swap weapons, still stuck in combat.
In PVE, if this much disruption was interfering with content, it would get patched eventually. This bug has not been addressed in Murkmire, or the follow-up patches. This, on top of our other issues in PVP like lag, make it miserable.
How far does PVP need to fall before ZOS takes some notice?

There are a lot of inconsistencies in the systems in this game, you kind of just have to accept them or not play, getting upset about them is a bit worthless at this point.Tl;dr really weigh the fun you have in game vs the business practices you are supporting.1 -

✭It's pretty annoying when you are at a huge keep battle & want to slot different siege coz you've used up all your slotted siege & you can't because you are perma-locked in combat. I've jumped off the wall & rode halfway to another keep just to slot siege that was useless by the time I got back to the battle. At least allow us to change Q-slot items while in combat!NA Server [PC] -- Mostly Ebonheart Pact, Mostly.11 -

✭I was running along behind my group with a couple other people while stuck in combat and trying to mount. I watched a group member standing feet away from me mount up and ride off but I kept getting "cannot mount in combat" over and over. How was I stuck in combat but he wasn't?PS4 NA

Duukar✭✭✭✭✭You cant stealth while in combat either..
It takes often 3 minutes or longer to clear when it happens, which isnt every time I gank.. but maybe 1 in every 8 or so..
This is incredibly inconvenient when deep in enemy turf trying to shed heat.
Been like this for years.. Nothing new there..

✭✭✭✭✭It is concerning that not a single thread about the worsened combat bug has been pinned to the Dev Tracker since that indicates Zos is looking at it.
As it stands we have no reason to think Zos takes this as an important issue worthy of their time. That is an undeniable fact that only Zos can change.8 -

My entire group has sat in the inner keep around the transitus, no DOTs, no HOTs, definitely not in combat, for two minutes before we got "out of combat".
Its only supposed to take 6 seconds after the last DOT/HOT to leave combat. Its taking a lot longer than that.8 -

ZirconJunkie✭✭✭✭You don't have to die, you have to wait for all DOTs and HOTs to clear
Right now as I speak, I have a burning effect on my character that shows it will last another 49710 days. I can't use a transitus or wayshrine, or swap gear or skills because it's keeping me in combat. Been staring at the screen for over an hour now and watching the counter tick down. So all I have to do is wait 136 years and it'll wear off?11 -

That's not true. I was stuck in combat for nearly 15 minutes last night. There is no DoT or HoT I cast that lasts that long. If there is...let me know, I want to make sure I'm spamming it. =PEdited by mayasunrising on November 14, 2018 8:53AM"And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom." ♥ Anaïs Nin

Rad! Thanks Dwemer! I'm going to try that next time it happens. But I know it won't happen again because it's getting fixed ASAP! Right @ZOS_GinaBruno ?

That is nothing. I have died, respawned at a one of the two main bases. The ones that cannot be attacked. I was still in combat for a bit. While it has happened when respawning at keeps not being attacked, the main base it totally clean without a doubt.0 -

On this topic: i don't understand why it is necessary for combat to prevent us from changing items in quickslots (siege, food, etc.).3 -

True and before murkmire it was possible to change skills even in combat. I usally run Fastride and frequently had to change manually back the original skills, because i rode into combat (some wolf, all seeing guards...) and the addon didn´t change back the skills on its own.
Today, I have sometimes to fight someone with spamming rapid maneuver instead of flame lash.0 -
