Am I using the stamina skills wrong in Elder Scrolls Blades?
there is a cooldown timer for each skill. after you use a skill you must wait a certain amount of time to use it again. also, some skills used by enemies have a negative effect on your cooldown timers, so you have to wait longer to use them again.
do you have enough max stamina to use the skill? some weapons carried by enemies have enchantments that lower your max health/magicka/stamina therefore it is possible that your max stamina(etc.) will be never enough high to use a skill as long as you fighting with that particular enemy.
as long as you are holding your "tap" onto a weapon or shield, you cannot use a skill linked to it. for example, as long as you are holding your shield icon (meaning blocking with your shield) you cannot use skills linked to you shield(for example shield bash).
just a few tips, after playing for a month on a daily basis, hope this helps
