Enemies teleport when killed, making them unlootable

✭✭✭✭✭PC NA (non Steam) here. I've been having this same problem since Elsweyr went live. All zones, all characters. Getting tired of walking away from yellow boss corpses that I cannot loot. I'm also frustrated at what appears to be a lack of acknowledgement of the problem, much less any update on a fix. * sad panda *PC NA(no Steam), PvE, mostly solo0 -

✭✭PC-NA on Steam also. I've been having the looting and enemies die standing bug for a while. Last night, I saw my first few teleports, which turned into a constant before I logged off. If I killed anything, one of the group would teleport. Weirdly, I have better luck looting teleported enemies than the ones who stay put

Cameron_Vayle✭✭✭Honestly...it has been THREE weeks since this was reported. This is a game breaker. Needs to be fixed. Just had 6 critters in a row do this to me. Logged out as it is not worth it to play this game in the state it is currently in. Will check in if they do a patch and if it fixes fine I will play if not then giving all the stuff to wife and not playing again.Edited by Cameron_Vayle on June 28, 2019 8:37PM2 -
elvenmad✭✭✭✭✭This is the bug report thread and its been up long enough to warrant a ZoS response, it's not like its a tiny bug only affecting a specific place in the game, and ignoring it and releasing more new content does not make a difference , its in new content too This is a bug involving basic core gameplay and it happens randomly everywhere even with bosses.
I am pretty sure they are aware of it so the only conclusion must be they have been told not to respond. GG ZoS what's the point of reporting bugs if they are completely ignored.

We will never understand the mysteries of what they choose to respond to, and what they choose not to. In the spirit of Douglas Adams, I am sure that as soon as we figure it out, they will implement a new, and more unfathomable, policy.

✭Seriously, are you going to fix this? Almost every enemy teleports after being killed now. You strike the killing blow, they freeze for a few seconds, then appear at your feet... unlootable.
I log in, this happens on the first kill, I log out. Thankfully I have FFXIV Shadowbringers to play until you fix this.The purpose of art is washing the dust of daily life off our souls. ~Pablo Picasso0 -

✭✭It is very frustrating.
RNG as to whether I get loot or not after a fight.
After I beat a creature and it glows to loot it, I just go back and forth over the body slamming the key to loot and keep getting error messages that it's not in range.Edited by Red_Feather on July 1, 2019 6:51PM1 -
playnox✭✭I reported this bug with video but seems like all /feedback /bug messages are going nowhere... At least moderators have to confirm, and give us time-frame for the fix (just like any other company would do)

kimaeril✭✭✭I'm still having this issue as well. I'm to the point where I don't even bother to go back to try and loot it or aggro something else to see if it's lootable so I can loot the original. I don't have time to mess with it and it's just frustrating and a waste of time.1 -
Martinus72✭✭✭✭Another patch and another time it’s been ignored so I’m also switching my focus to another game for time being until Zoe will find their bearings.0

SwoopIM✭✭✭This has been going on for weeks - really began to notice it after Elsweyr released but it happens in all play areas. And it seems to be happening more and more frequently. Several maintenance patches later and it is still going on. It is very disruptive to game-play and it is well past time that this was fixed ZOS!!1

Yeah, and ZOS silence is very annoying on this subject. I always attribute this to "we know about it but are not anywhere close to a fix, although we plan to get one when we get a moment, unless something else comes ... oooh .... donuts!"1 -

✭✭✭✭✭Could we get confirmation if this bug is tied to the moving conal AoE’s in trials? 6 weeks seems like a long time to wait for a fix to something so critical and widespread.6 -

You're kidding right? Is the game engine so bad as to where you can not fix this in an incremental? What did you do to make it not work as intended, as in what change in another incremental caused this? 7-8 weeks of a non-functioning feature in the game, and a pretty important one when you consider it can happen on Helm Drop Bosses, is inexcusable.7 -

I understand that game development isn't as simple as writing a fix and pushing it out to users. I know there are a lot of steps involved and that y'all are publishing this fix as fast as you possibly can.
But can you explain to us why the devs have decided not to roll back the "fix" that introduced this bug as a temporary stopgap? Would that not be feasible? Or is the view in internal discussions that this isn't a serious enough bug to require immediate action? Because I assure you, this is one of the 2 or 3 most detrimental issues in the history of ESO. It's that bad.7-day PVP campaign regular 2016-2019, Flawless Conqueror. MagDK/stamplar/stamwarden/mageblade. Requiem, Legend, Knights of Daggerfall.

Drako_Ei✭✭✭✭✭If you cant loot the final boss of a trial, relogging fixes it, but its very annoying2

lakeaSoul ShrivenGoing to the Point Of Death and repeatedly clicking E (or whatever your loot button is) until you get to the actual body usually works as well.
Keep in mind, I said "usually". Results may vary.0 -

As much as I hate to say it I agree with this because the desync/positioning issue is effecting way more than just loot.2
