It took me a while to realize it isn't really a computer lag issue with those zones of damage. You get the damage once the cast is finished and that, apparently, doesn't happen at the time the projection leaves the floor. It's a bit before then. It helped me to think of it as that I need to be out of those area way before the projection is gone and that has actually helped me a lot. Once I got that in my mind, I was able to more easily avoid those things and save my mana.
