Unresponsive gameplay due to long animation locking

[raerae]

Currently, it is common knowledge that with a good internet connection a player should be able to weave up to two off-GCD abilities without any delay to their next GCD. I play at 110ms latency on NA servers, with zero packet loss. I experience this issue on all jobs, and it's worst on jobs with faster GCDs like Monk, Ninja, Machinist, etc. - I've recorded my own gameplay, and asked my friend to do the same (he plays on 15ms ping) and when watching our gameplay side-by-side, it seems the animation lock on his abilities is around 200ms or .2 seconds faster than mine, allowing him to double weave without issue.

This leads to a very unresponsive, and almost sluggish feeling experience, especially on jobs like Machinist where it is very important to do heat blasts and make sure to spend your Ricochet and Gauss Round charges. I have no choice but to use Ricochet and Gauss Round - but the clipping means I cannot do as many heat blasts as I could with good latency. Because my issue is only present on others with similar latency to mine, and never present on people I know who have low latency, I believe the cause of this issue is how ping interacts with animation locking, but I am not sure.

Steps:
1. I use a GCD ability
2a. I attempt to use 2 off-GCD cooldown abilities before my GCD has finished resolving
2b. I attempt to use 1 off-GCD ability as a Machinist with Hypercharge active
3. I attempt to use the next GCD ability, which is now delayed due to latency
