    (1) Calm down,
    (2) delete the character
    (3) get your credit card out, spend some real money
    (4) make the character all over again.
    (5) You will gain 10% chance of game working as intended for 10 seconds. Can occur once every hour.

    Have you tried changing the controls? Maybe it's a keyboard/mouse thing.

    One of the last updates from ZOS was to try having your character die via NPC or fall death (seriously).

    Stam Necro has been bugged for over a month. No acknowledgement from ZOS so far.

    Just to check, you have weapons slotted on both bars right?

    Yup 2 briarheart daggers on main and vma bow on back

    I’ve even tried

    flipping them back to front
    Clearing skills and attributes completely
    Swapping bjrh weapons for great swords , Restos destos (and mixes thereof) you name it

    Only does it on this stamcro

    The weirdest bit it’s like it anim cancels half way through the weapon swap and doesn’t complete it

    Yes I’ve reset Xbox
    Yes I’ve cleared saved data
    Yes I’ve tried different controllers
    Only does it on this 1 char out of my10

    What does work is going to the menu , inventory the using the y button to select the other skill bar however when you come out you’re still stuck on that bar!!

    I’m Literally out of ideas

    There was a problem a while back with weapon swapping when a two-hander was involved. Try switching to two one-handed weapons on each bar and see if that frees it.

    Yes.

    Read Clause 11. It effectively says that they don't have to give you anything that works.

    And a two-hander on the other bar, you said - namely a bow. The other weapons you mentioned were all two-handers too. Have you tried no two-handers on either bar?

    I've had problems with ESO CS before but they've been very good recently.

    It's going to take time for someone to actually read your ticket and investigate it.

    Over what period of time?

    Raising 15 tickets over the same issue is just wasting CS time and clogging up their system for everyone.

    On the other hand if you've raised tickets previously which haven't been dealt with appropriately, you can complain to external agencies.

    Since the game is buy to play, you will have spent money on it and be afforded due consumer protection rights - which includes the game being in good working order. Bugs can happen but you have a right to them being fixed within a reasonable timeframe. You may have grounds for a complaint to your local government consumer protection agency.

    There's also Better Business Bureau. They're not a government agency or have any kind of power. But they can help to facilitate solutions to consumer problems. It costs you nothing to complain to them, except the time it takes to write the complaint.

    You could also try and double check to see if the weapon swap buttons got accidently changed. I forgot when I made my new Necro character to change the weapon swap button and was like "WTF" before I facepalmed myself and remembered that I needed to change the key binding.

    Good thought but I’d say not since it works on the other 9 of my 10 chars on Xbox!

    That’s actually a fair point I’ll try it with 2 single handlers and a snb (I’ll also try it with 4 different daggers just in case it’s the item that’s bugged)

    in the UK we don’t have that protection. However we do have the trading standards agency and consumer rights act (which is law) - which basically states any product sold has to be fit for purpose. However that would be a last resort and you also need to demonstrate you’ve given the company a fair chance to remedy - I’m still going through that process but if they continue not to acknowledge and engage that doesn’t stand well for them if put in front of a uk judge.

    OP I don't know if it'll help but my stamcro kept getting bugged as well(my shield was always up, even when not blocking) I couldnt bar swap, skills would not fire etc. 3rd ticket I was told to strip ALL gear and die either by falling or daggerfish. It "reset" my character and has been fine since.

    That was actually the route I took. Thought it was bs at first, kinda like "did you reboot your xbox?" But it worked for me. Don't know why stripping all gear and skinny dipping worked but /shrug. 3rd ticket and 5 days I was desperate.

    I can kinda guess what's going on there, but I can't say it without sounding completely idiotic.

    EDIT: It wouldn't surprise me if dying, while naked, cleared the effect. Probably as a byproduct of the fix to players who were running multiple constellation boons back in the day.

    Try transforming to goliath itll lock your bar swap or ww. Maybe when transforming back it will work normaly again.

    Also if you use snb and unslot the 1h weapon, and then light attack you get stuck on that bar as well.
    Try both of that maybe it overrides your barswapping

    Ok bizarrely It’s worked but not straight away!

    Here’s what I did

    Cleared all my inventory
    Went for a swim with the fishies in glenumbra
    Landed back at wayshrine
    Didn’t work at that point

    However here’s the killer

    I then turned off nameplates (I was gonna post a video to show you)
    I turned off my combat bar showing
    Then I realised I’d need to see it to see the effect so I turned it back on

    Tried bar swapping again and it worked

    Currently stood in glenumbra butt naked but at least I can fight now

    I’ll try adding one item of clothes back at a Time to see what happens and report back

    Thanks to all the above for suggestions - I’ll let you all know how I get on
