Chest's bugged

Today I am unable to lockpick. I press E to activate the chest and then see the lockpicking minigame but in there depressing the mouse does nothing. Eventually the timer runs out.

As well, when I exit the minigame my stored ultimate is reset to 0 - or is that just due to not killing stuff for too long?

    I heard we lose our ultimate after not gaining any for 5 minutes though I'm unsure if it's true. Does the time frame add up?

    Could be - it did happen while I was waiting for help to show up for a boss.

    But the chests still aren't working - found a second one just a min ago - can't open it either.

    Not trying to be a wise guy but are you sure you have lockpicks? I ran out without noticing once.

    I can somewhat confirm this happening.

    Ran 3 Vet dungeons (Banished Cells SpindleClutch and one other.../brainfart... I cant remember the name off the top of my head) last night and our Templar kept losing his ultimate(s) last night after about 5 minutes.

    Up to 5 chests found that I couldn't even attempt picking - the minigame opens but nothing works, except repeated attempts to force it. I have lockpicks and reset the controls (thinking maybe I somehow changed the settings).

    Can't open chests at all today. On multiple logins.

    Did you try moving your mouse around to attempt to work on the different levers. Reason I am asking this is because I have experienced something similar in that I cannot depress a certain lever regardless of how I position my mouse but trying on different levers eventually work and I can continue to pick the lock, including the lever that was not working previously.

    No idea what changed, but now they work. All failed in multiple logins, but a 3 hour break fixed it... sigh

    Do you have a dual screen, by chance? I've had it happen before where the cursor goes to the second screen, but since I have not clicked on another window, ESO stays active with no mouse motion?

    I run dual screens and set mine up so they are logically diagonal from each other to reduce the chance of this happening...
