    Just be ready to move instead of being focused on your cast bar. Even if it's 85% filled, just move and lose the cast.
    It's not like your tank's going to die because you didn't get that one cast of heal off, but if you die, the tank WILL die.

    And.. yes, unfortunately, if your reaction is just too slow, not much can be done about that
    Since Tex is one of those things where you can't recover, once you're knocked out, it's over kind of deal. Also, no amount of gear will save you from it either, so it's a true skill check in that sense.

    Also, check your play style and see if you're unable to move AND cast skills at the same time.. I've noticed that some people have trouble doing both at the same time, if that's the case, you could practice it. maybe try playing BRD or something and be constantly on the move without stopping at any time.

    I recommend this as well - I had quite a bit of trouble in Titan HM till I switched to Bard for a while. It was quickly a cakewalk on Bard, and the practice transferred over to when I'd play WHM again. A lot of my trouble spots I got over using Bard. Now I consider Titan HM fun o_O

    The main thing, though, is to not wait to finish casting - unless you intend to take a hit from a WoTL (but Never landslide!), knowing you can take it, if something is truly that dire (like low health MT and Bene on CD). You can also hit sprint at any time - for casters it's free movement speed since they're not penalized by the TP loss (unlike melee are).

    If it's not that - check the graphics settings or the speed boosters mentioned earlier x.x An FC mate of mine had such bad lag that I still outran his sprinting, while running normally. Pingzapper cleared that right away, as soon as he tried it. He didn't do the whole Disconnect symbol dance or jumping places.... just everything for him was incredibly slow (and he appeared slow on my screen, too) - which meant things appeared incredibly slow, too (AoEs, spawns, etc). While that may not be the case for all content for you (as he only had this happen -worst- for him in some openworld areas and some dungeons (Brayflox. As a new tank. He cried for days.) you can stilll run it during instances where you suspect this could be happening... especially Titan HM
