    Graphics delay

    I've been having issue in raids/dungeons with aoe attacks from enemies, in particular with Titan's landslide. Even tough I'm out of the colored area for at least 1-2 seconds, I'm still getting hit. I can also hear players in team speak calling them and yet, it take sometime before I can see it appear on my screen. So the only way to avoid those is to anticipate the enemies action and move away before they star casting them.

    My ping seems fine in dungeons (below 300) and I'm using a GeForce GT530 with the latest update. RAM seems fine (6GB), but processor seems to "rush" a little bit. It's an Intel i5 running on Windows 7 64 bits.

    I have the default settings. I just changed my FPS from 60 to 29, what other settings do I need to drop to improve dungeons playability?

    Sounds like a Latency issue, but you can try putting your graphics settings as low as possible.
    With that graphics card I'd recommend no more than 1400x900 Resolution.

    You should try as low as 1024X720 to see if it helps, since the GT 530 is technically about 30-40% slower than the recommended minimum 8800 GS

    Thanks for the tips. I will lower my resolution. I already turned off as many visual effects as I could and my processor's fan don't go crazy anymore.
