Mining speed question?

[TomTom1968]

I am sure it is Lag/Latency related. There is no speed difference for Miners. Just take T5 for a good example. When Divebombs are coming and you react correctly, you will ALWAYS see your character going up first and all others following you. But funny thing is, for all other people it is the same. But in fact it isn't. What you see on the screen and what is really happening, are 2 different things.

I can definitely confirm this... Many times, my wife and I will be fighting a boss, and I'll see an AoE pop under her, and I won't see her move. So, I'll shout across the room to her about it, and she'll be like, "Duh, I already moved!" and then I'll see her move in game. It's also why you'll see people dodge an AoE "late" from your perspective, but they don't take any damage from it, because they actually dodged in time but what you see them do is a bit lagged.
