so this happens randomly and usually happens on my stam characters more often. Can't heavy attack, pressing a skill will drain stam but won't fire. And I noticed bar swapping also drans stam.

    It would be most helpful if you told us what platform you are on?

    Yes. These type of "bugs" happen a lot in PC, especially in Cyrodiil. Sometimes, your skills will be greyed out a negate even present. I have rolled/dodged at times and found it might work to clear up part of it. If that doesn't work... send in a ticket.

    It is the glorious sprint bug. Usually happens when you try to fire a skill while sprinting. The server thinks you are still sprinting so none of your skills work and your stamina continuously drains. Roll dodging usually fixes it for me, but if it doesn't, try toggling sprint. PC-NA.

    Had it happen, PC (EU). Who knows if/when it'll get fixed, though. (Hopefully soon! was a bit frightening to encounter.)
    if I could make another character, their name would be Cries-For-Character-Slots. AKA, I need more.

    I'm on PS4 NA, thank you all for your replies. I think I may have seen the elusive sprint bug before, just don't remember it stealing my stam with bar swapping in the past. It makes sense that it could be it, because like I had mentioned it happens more often to my stam characters. I've tried the roll dodge to fix it. sometimes it works, but most of the time my characters hold block or do a repetitive bash animation.

    It happens to magicka toons as well, I get it regularly in every play session (PS4 EU). It has been happening from time to time for a while, but lately I feel like it's gotten worse. Maybe I'm imagining things, but it seems like I'm getting it all the time now. It's extremely annoying :/

    Edit: Just to mention it, I don't know if roll dodging can break you out of it as well, but what I know works is to just activate sprint again. Up until now this has - luckily - fixed it 100% of the time for me.

    Does anyone else see the irony in requiring a dodge roll for a stamina draining bug - lol
