Please let us mount in combat, please.

Cavedog · February 2020

The combat bug is back with a vengeance....if it ever left.

Can ZOS please just let us mount in combat? If ya'll can't fix the stuck in combat bug, at least let us ride our mounts in combat.

PLEASE.

the combat bug might be bad but letting us use mount in combat would be no way of fixing it just another walk around like every other bug in this broken game so no its time ZOS gets off the pot and starts fixing the game not just add in more walk arounds while the game suffers due to all the bugs in it

Agreed. If ya see the zerg coming. Common sense would be what's the fastest way out of here.

The “In combat” bug is getting worse. I’ve been stuck in group dungeons unable to leave because the system thinks I’m in combat when I’m definitely not. I was lucky to find something overlooked to kill, though I’ve also had the issue where even killing something doesn’t fix it. In that case I was able to run all the way back to the beginning and exit, but in some cases you can’t even do that.

I also hate getting killed by dragons, rezzing at a shrine and having to run back because I can’t mount. And as mentioned I’ve been noticing this occurring more frequently lately. There are often workarounds, but it’s ridiculous that you have to work around chronic issues.

One of the many, many problems in this game being completely ignored by ZoS.

Right. If they aren't going to fix the bug, at least still let us ride our mounts.

What about changing it to where you cannot mount if you've taken damage within 10 seconds? Think that'd solve a lot of issues to be honest, while also keeping to the intended goal of stopping people from mounting in battle.

NO stop asking for walk arounds to FIX things its not good for the GAME ask for it to be FIXED as its the only acceptably thing to DO FIX THE GAME not make walk arounds sick of bugs being left in game

A workaround and a fix are not mutually exclusive, you know.

I don't get why we cannot mount while in combat, if we can stay mounted when we aggroed something even if it attacked us

Gilvoth · February 2020

Agreed

BaiterOfZergs · February 2020

I don’t think peta would like that

Iskiab · February 2020

There will be two different opinions:

1. Let us mount in combat like every other PvP MMO in existence
2. Sorcs who rely on streaking into the sunset who will be against the change

It’s such a common sense change I’m sure Sorcs are the only reason it hasn’t been done yet

Zos is never going to let us mount while we are in combat.

Zos does not seem to take this in-combat bug seriously as Gina acknowledged it well over a year ago but it was not placed into the dev tracker and I have not seen an update since. Heck, it is obvious the change Zos made to prevent us from swapping skills/gear while in combat even if we did not actively participate in combat for a short period of time is the likely culprit and a much smaller priority.

LarsS · February 2020

In cyro this bug is very serious and often destroys the fun. Countless times we have missed a battle or lost a keep, because half the group is in battle.

technohic · February 2020

I have been stuck in combat for like 2 years.

I'm only slightly joking. I've had enough.

LarsS · February 2020

I just wonder how many zos have lost to this bug.

This combat bug is out of control atm. Losing keeps cuz we can't change sieges, losing keeps cuz we can't get there on time, losing battles because you are forced into combat hundreds of meters away from the battle incapable of switching out rapids. It's absurdity in its finest form

The problem seems to be that if any of your group are in combat nearby, that makes you stuck in combat even if you haven't joined the fight, and even if you just ressed or TP's into a Keep, with no combat even happening inside it. Not sure why it acts differently when you're in a group, but this seems to be the key to the problem.

They should simply do it on a individual basis, if you fought, in combat, if u haven't in 15 seconds, out of combat

Don't give them ideas...

I was completely solo yesterday. Had some fights and they were long over. After being stuck in combat at least half an hour running on foot to next keeps, I had enough and jumped of the top of inner, ran back up the stairs and repeated to kill myself.

Got to next keep fight at Brindle and we already took it so I took farm as I know people hate coming down from Brindle to do so. Just killed the guards, flags flipped, all NPCs changed. No enemy players had shown up. Was stuck in combat all the way up to Carmala.

I wont say its caused me to quit, but it built up bad will. A little later I came back and go to fight 1 guy 1v1 near a resource. Couldnt activate abilities and he probably couldnt either. It was a DK who kept using fossilized and talons and trying to dawn breaker (weird I know) but it would take me 3 seconds to break free, 3 seconds to roll and 3 seconds to purge and heal. And he couldn't seem to follow up. Go to attack and abilities hitch until repeat. I finally just left, logged off, cancelled sub, and looked to play something else.

So I'm rambling but point is, all part of a game that doesnt work and I feel like an idiot for putting up with it. Always been waiting for it to get better or the next siege and large scale MMO to come out, but it's time to just let it go until patches are done and proven effective, which I doubt
