Heavy attacks auto canceling

dark_hunterxmg · November 3

Does anyone else have issues with heavy attacks canceling? I have noticed on numerous occasions that I will hold the command for heavy attack with the intention of continously attacking, but then my character will suddenly stop after a few heavies and just stand there doing nothing with the command still pressed.

I believe there is an interrupt happening at times from out of nowhere. If you have ever been to Cyrodiil and your riding along then get stopped from nothing, that is happening in the PVE area now. I have been running on the ground and got stopped then seen the circle rotating around me on the ground like I got some kind of effect. Just look the next time to see if you have the rotating circle under you.

Yes this does happen, I don't know why it seems random to me. I just repress the button but it is annoying.

The most annoying part is when I'm trying to use the fast heavy attacks in werewolf form and having to restart with the long heavy attack again. Throws off the whole rhythm.

Yup happens all the time for me to the point where where I get most of my damage from other skills and light attacks and only use heavy attacks to get stamina back or if I need the conal damage from berserker.

Yes! It's very annoying.

I also have the issue where the HA will not start up again when I press the button and have to move or dodge or do something else before the attack will function.

I have this problem too. Also when I charge to then cancel with a skill it cancels the heavy, like as if I never did it, then the skill may or may not fire. If it doesn't fire I get stuck in animation.

Happens with dual wield and with destro.

Yes that too! Just the whole HA thing not really working.

I was wondering if my keyboard button was dying and if i should put the skill on a different key! Glad to see it's not meeeeee

It's not just you! I didn't notice it as much until I started using a heavy attack build. Almost all of my damage on one of my builds is from heavy attacks, so when they don't work, it is very noticeable. Not to mention, when getting cc'd constantly, the window for opportunity is very very small, so missing can mean I'm dead.
