I've noticed many threads discussing similar issues, so it's definitely a known problem by now.

The most repeatable issue I encounter is during dungeons or raids, where everything suddenly stops. My character can still move, although they remain in a static pose, and I can use abilities, but no animations trigger. Additionally, I can't see any enemies, though I still take damage and can see the targeting arrows of other party members.

Sometimes, waiting for a minute or two allows everything to "catch up," and I'm back to playing as if nothing happened. Other times, I'm forced to use Task Manager to end the game, which causes my computer to slow down significantly. Attempting to restart the computer often results in it getting stuck on the "Restarting..." Windows screen, forcing me to perform a hard reboot, which isn't healthy for the system.
Sounds just like what happens for me. I get it primarily in alliance raids and sometimes dungeons. It's annoying and often crippling. Especially when it's affecting the graphics of mechanics the bosses use, delaying them and such. It stopped last week, but has gradually started again. My own skills don't visually go off when I hit my macros for several seconds. My character just freezes and will just glide around if I move her until the skill graphics go off. Bosses skills go off several seconds before the graphics do. It's really bad in Aglaia, but affects most raids.
