So at what point is ZOS going to address the BG no healthbar bug?

Ishtharo · July 2020

As title.

When queuing into Battle Grounds, frequently I can't see health bars over my allies. This bug has been persistent for a while now, and makes healing really aggravating and arduous.
Are we finally going to address this @ZOS_GinaBruno ?

FangOfTheTwoMoons · July 2020

The same reason we have the Sunspire audio bug since May. If it's not the crownstore or a harmless exp grind they don't think it's a priority.

Since June this has been discussed.

In BGs, players who join late don't have nameplates/health bars/group member markers that are visible to their group mates. It makes staying together a lot harder.

@ZOS_SarahHecker
@ZOS_GinaBruno

It would be nice for ZOS to acknowledge that they are aware of this.

If ZOS is unaware, that means they must not play BGs, which is even more worrisome.

RogueShark · July 2020

I noticed when running around in IC sewers with a buddy, his nameplate/health bar/marker will vanish entirely sometimes. And then randomly return. Not sure what causes it down there. Mine vanished for him on occasion as well, seemingly at random.

MincVinyl · July 2020

Missing my allies health bars doesn't bother me much......mostly because as a stam player i guess we are not allowed to do much of anything useful for the group.

Gaggin · July 2020

This has been broken the entire patch, no acknowledgement of it in patch note at all. @ZOS_GinaBruno @ZOS_BillE @ZOS_JessicaFolsom is this known about and what are the plans for it? It's pretty darn gamebreaking and we bg people feel like you simply don't care about us.

Ishtharo · July 2020

Hopefully, the newest PTS patch notes address this. It makes some BG unplayable as a healer, where I have no health bars at all.

precambria · July 2020

FIX pls zos, Gina pls

Naw that's specific to stamsorcs :P Everyone else has useful debuffs

stybbe17b16_ESO · July 2020

Yep. They introduced this bug in the greymoor patch. Shouldn't be that hard to just check git repo to see what changes were made in the ui code.

Also while fixing this bug please fix the bug where blastbones doesn't count towards damage in the battleground score. I guess this bug been here since they introduced the necromancer class. But I can't tell because I have not played that long.

Jodynn · July 2020

As soon as let me group with my mate again, I have quit doing battlegrounds because doing them alone is boring, doing them with my lover is fun.

MurderMostFoul · July 2020

So @ZOS_GinaBruno,

No mention of the missing healthbar/nameplate/group marker in 6.1.2 PTS notes.

Is this on y'all's radar?

I'm honestly not sure that it is. COnfirmed no mention in the patch notes are from any Dev.

MurderMostFoul · August 2020

Still no acknowledgement from ZOS regarding this issue as far as I can tell.

@ZOS_GinaBruno
@ZOS_JessicaFolsom

This issue is glaringly obvious to anyone who plays BGs and is a notable detriment to gameplay. Why can't we get any statement from ZOS on this?

honethiteb16_ESO · August 2020

Seeing this a lot too and I've only been here a week. I play Magplar and healing is now a pain in BGs wth this annoying bug.

FangOfTheTwoMoons · August 2020

Has there been an official response to this issue?

luen79rwb17_ESO · August 2020

This is quite annoying for an already very annoying system in this game, PVP

Kingslayer513 · August 2020

Months passing by and still no word from ZOS. Honestly not surprised.

Recapitated · August 2020

Yup, been having this problem all patch. Resorted to Provinatus, super invasive addon but at least unlike the game's UI it works reliably.

Ghostbustersaurus · September 2020

ofcourse they are aware, 400 employees, and a dedicated PVP balance team. They clearly have marked it as lower priority and/or are unable to recreate or fix. To suggest they could be unaware because they dont play BGs if unhelpful.

There's no way to know they are aware unless they acknowledge the issue. The lack of such an acknowledgement leads to speculation about whether or not ESO is aware of the issue. Poor communication, leading to speculation, is the bigger problem with ZOS's handling of this bug.

MurderMostFoul · September 2020

So this is still a thing and still not even a peep from ZOS.

@ZOS_GinaBruno

What gives? Can we please get an acknowledgement of this issue?

Ishtharo · October 2020

Bumping this up becasue we are on a new PTS cycle, and still no *** fix.
@ZOS_GinaBruno @ZOS_BrianWheeler

This has been broken for a year now. Fix your *** please, so us healers can enjoy BGs

Cinbri · October 2020

Hopefully will be fixed before live coz in an incoming premade bgs this bug will be even bigger disaster.

Firstmep · October 2020

I run eso on an ssd on a fairly fast pc with relatively short load times, and it's rare for me to load in to a bg and see more than 1 teammates healthbar.
Light's of Meridia helps, but it makes playing a healer very difficult as a I have to track my teammates with the party ui.

ZOS_Lunar · October 2020

Greetings!

We are aware of the issue and currently looking into it. You can find Adrikoth's comment here. You're welcome to continue the discussion in that thread. Thank you for your understanding.
