Sure, 150-250 ping? Then to be honest you need to move a little quicker.

    1) Different humans have different reaction time. You can't expect everyone to move AS SOON AS the AoE shows up.
    2) Once again, if you are CLEARLY standing out of the AoE when it hits, then it's physically not possible for it to be your fault.

    With a ping of 150 you don't have to move as soon as the AoE shows up, even with 200ish I can manage moving out halfway through. Maybe it's packet loss, in which case WTFast solved that for you. I do play with WTFast and while the ping is quite horrendous without it (TPG routing is just the best) the packet loss is unbearable and is the larger problem.

    Which still can be described as "lag".

    Guess so, but from what I've heard only a few ISPs suffer from such issues, and I know there are genuine players that always ping it on lag. Back when I played WoW my old raiding guild always had that one guy who pinned all of his mistakes on lag, and when his ping was above 100? Literally everything is the fault of lag to him. There is a reason most people don't believe someone when they claim lag, and that's because it's mostly not the truth and there's no way to verify it unless they post a screencap of them pinging the servers or something.

    Yeah, I agree, there are some such people, and they lower the credibility of people who actually got hit due to connection issues (be it delay, spike, packet loss, or anything like that).

    As Scholar it's a really big improvement.

    Now I can get 3 stacks of Aetherflow instantly, and Lustrate lands instantly too.

    Also, Swiftcast+spell works instant too. No more "Swiftcast + spamm 100 times the spell until it lands, wasting time".

    So basically before EU servers I wasted lots of seconds on raid, just trying to cast stuff, waiting 0,3-0,4 secs everytime I do Aetherflow or Swiftcast or waiting a bit to do Bane.

    So in the end I will heal more, do more DPS, dodge better etc etc...


    Also, everything else works better. Mini Cactpot works instant too. Switching retainers is not a pain anymore because it's instant too.

    I'm happy with the EU Servers

    Leatrix Latency Fix can also help with lag if you're on PC, and that's free.

    Does Bane now correctly apply all 3 DoTs without waiting?
    I usually use a Macro to put up Bio II > Miasma > Bio, and I had to wait close to a second to bane after that otherwise it will only copy Bio II and Miasma.
