    That most definitely sounds like reaaally bad lag to me, even if I have a bit of lag its never that bad.

    Maybe. However, when it happens sometimes it's to one person at random, other times I've seen it happen to the entire party at once. During that time the boss's other abilities (Murder Hole and the void zones) behave 100% normally without any sort of delay. Player skills/spells also behave normally. Even the bees behave normally if they're out while this is happening.

    Repel simply has no effect at all (no miss, no resist, it's just like it was never cast) or it hits you a few seconds after it was initially cast. Could it be latency? Yes, of course. Given how the rest of the encounter plays out suggests otherwise though.

    That would make sense if not for the fact that the void zones go out as per the norm, damage/debuff on time, and the rest of your party members also see what you are experiencing. This has happened to me several times, and I was not lagging at all.

    I generally avoided doing SS back when I was doing AK because of this. Was pretty funny seeing people doing their stuff 5 seconds after a repel. Then BOOM, they go flying.

    Yep, that's why I've stopped. I'd rather have people know "nope, I need to wait" than think that maybe Stoneskin took care of it, and then lose them. :S

    They do... it often goes like this:

    1 get ready to be Repelled
    2 liquid starts appearing
    3 avoid the liquid
    4 get repelled
    5 complain about it on the forums

    I've tried zooming out the camera, didn't worked.

    Liquid is gone before he starts casting repel and it doesn't come back until several seconds after repel goes off. Kill speed has no effect on the timing of any of his abilities. I've had groups survive the whole fight and take him all the way to the door ( ) and I've had groups kill him before bees spawned, and the pattern is just that predictable. I'd believe it happened to you once, because anything can, but I've done AK nearly 150 times and this never happens.

    Of course, the bees red aoe can get in the way if your tank is dead or in a silly position.

    Also, OP, You probably don't want to be promoting bugs, or what you perceive to be bugs. Reporting is vastly different than promoting.
