Player abilities blocking view at outfit station

I love that I can now use outfit stations without an army of bears getting in the way. But every now and then some nearby warden will cast frost cloak and suddenly I'm covered in ice. Same thing happens with undaunted orbs, healing springs, rapid regen, pretty much any ability that causes a visual effect on other players. Normally it's not too bad but some people seem to purposely spam abilites on outfit stations. It would be great if ZOS could block player abilities from view like they did with pets.

    Did I miss something? Just yesterday a warden's bear blocked the turn in stations for crafting.

    Did something change?

    IDK why people spam abilities outside of combat anyway, it looks stupid.
    Hoping for more playable races

    I fixed that - I picked up an outfit station (the cheap one) on each account both PC megaservers, and have them set up in the Villa on the account that has it both NA and EU, and the other account they're set up at Moon Sugar Meadow on EU and Thieves Oasis on NA. All my characters can use them without any problems from others, with their pets and silly ability use.

    Sorry my bad, NON-COMBAT pets don't block outfit stations anymore. They changed that with the Stonethorn patch I think. But yeah warden bears can still block everything, I think they count as player abilities since they are combat pets.

    Just a matter of courteous vs discourteous players. Courteous players stow their summon in public crafting areas and don't spam abilities that affect crafting players - especially at the darn outfitting station. Discourteous players don't.

    If someone keeps dropping distracting skill effects on you while at an outfitting station, ask them to stop. If they don't, report them for harassment.
    PC NA(no Steam), PvE, mostly solo

    Go to your house or your guild’s main house and use it there in peace....

    I noticed a few nights ago the pets that have a purple glow really mess with the colors when they are near. I'm sure the glowing circling orbs and other pets that glow cause the same problem it was just really obvious with the purple one because I was messing around with lite colored dyes that are easily over powered.
    and then the parrot said, "must be the water mines green too."
