Cheers to 10 Years! (Hilarious Visual Bug)

LadyLavina · April 8

I was goofing off in IA and my Overload animation glitched permanently so I knew this video had to be made.

It felt appropriate to honor the jubilee!

Cheers to the entire ZOS team, this one goes out to you guys. @ZOS_GinaBruno @ZOS_Kevin @ZOS_Bill @ZOS_Wrobel @ZOS_MattFiror @ZOS_Icy and all the rest!

I would stay so so far away from you in Cyrodiil

A pity about the bug, though: it's anything but hilarious, because it keeps returning after being fixed.

Overload seems to have a TON of bugs right now:

• There's the animation glitch pictured by OP where it just never goes away until you relog.

• There's the glitch where the animation keeps going off after you've killed whatever enemy you're fighting and it locks you out of interacting with anything until you press block.

• There's the glitch where if you turn it off, port somewhere else, get into a fight it automatically and immediately has itself turned back on even though you turned it off before the port.

• And my all-time favorite one where if you turn it off, port somewhere else, get into a fight you can't do any light or heavy attacks at all until you manually toggle the ultimate on and then back off.

I've seen all of these consistently while using the Power Overload morph during this Anniversary Event.

It's been doing all of this for me long before the anniversary event and I hate it all. The one the OP posted happens the most for me and it also tends to slow you down when you move. And since it doesn't stop even if you die, it's especially inconvenient in PvP and complete murder on the ears. I've reported it twice, but then I remembered Zenimax probably doesn't care.

That's actually really interesting. I guess I've kind of lucked out and not had any oddities other than the one in the video lol. I wonder if said bugs will chill out post-jubilee event

Oh, and this one isn't even restricted to just porting. It happens to me in BGs all the time and I haven't been able to figure out what exactly causes it. My closest guess is dying when it's active, but I can't say for sure.

I have a feeling this is why me and my group are like the only ones I see using overload in pve lol
