Red Ring of Death!

I'm still going to advise you to try and play at (slightly) lower settings.
My dodging issues were also mostly in group fights and in crowded areas like popular Fate zones and lowering my settings upped my dodging rate from "crap, I dodged that" to "crap, brainfart!".

If you are lowering your computer settings and it's working, the problem isn't with SE.

Indeed, but then again I am not one of the people that is desperately seeking a scapegoat for any game issues before making sure that I have completely taken away any local influences.
I see everyone raging on about network and internet influences and pointing the finger at SE, but a lot of people seem to forget that the problem can also be one of a local nature.
