After rubber-banding and having skills not go through, I think I can narrow down the issue, but cannot solve it.
The lag is NOT an FPS lag nor is it a ping lag first and foremost.
The lag includes rubber-banding and skills not activating (as a cleric)
It does not happen when in town or otherwise simply running through zones
It ALWAYS starts during a long fight/many monsters being KITED.
Skills always activate when not moving.
Skills are less likely to activate the further you move from your “spot”
The “spot” is where the server thinks you are and automatically teleports you back to where you are “supposed” to be.
The problem is when kiting many mobs or moving a long time in battle somehow the server stops receiving information that you have moved. This causes you to only be able to use skills at the location where you are supposed to be and using skills at any other area will result in a “freeze” for 1 second or so before teleporting back to your spot.
Sometimes it goes away if you slow down your movements so that the server can catch up.
Im assuming that the server cannot catch up to your inputs or it is some sort of anti-DDOS measure, having too many packets sent lags the server or something.
Many people do not get this issue for some reason but as a cleric I always kite and wait for my cooldowns while soloing and it causes issues.
I know there will be never an answer but is there a way to fix this?
