Heavy attack is broken in PvP. It just stops working. 5 or 6 times so far today.

✭Peak combat fluidity. I'm pretty sure there was an issue with Null Arca, maybe there are others too. Kind of annoying, more reason to just have one class and beam.0 -
Last'One✭✭✭✭Heavy attack has been broken ever since they nerfed it for the release of the Arcanist. In fact, it’s not heavy attack that’s broken, it’s the game itself. Heavy attack is just what it is: something we can use sometimes to do some DPS.
And in fact, it seems like breaking heavy attack was all part of a bigger plan, so people would use HA v2.0, The almighty Arcanist Beam.
This game is so broken , so broken… I honestly wonder how the hell this server is still alive.Elder Scrolls Online? A delightful blend of tragedy and comedy. Hilarious! Terrifying!

✭✭✭✭✭I can’t say for sure, but it feels like in Cyrodiil that lightning staff heavy attacks get blocked by other players and player combat pets now.

✭✭✭Heavy attack builds have never truly been good in PvP outside of a few specific patches where HA ganking was overpowered thanks to broken set procs that proc'd off heavy attacks (when combined with stealth it made for easy free kills).
The bug that OP speaks about though (randomly stops working) is one that has been around in PvE for ages now. The issue has been raised/complained about and still no fixes yet.3 -

Heavy Attack is nice, it’s fun, and some players, like me, truly love the HA playstyle.
For players who just want to enjoy the game and don’t care about chasing numbers, Heavy Attack builds are simply amazing.
This playstyle helps many players engage with the game, feel effective, and have fun without unnecessary pressure.
Because of that, it can feel frustrating when fun and enjoyment don’t seem to carry much weight in balance discussions.
So… does all this help you understand why there are no fixes yet?Elder Scrolls Online? A delightful blend of tragedy and comedy. Hilarious! Terrifying!
