Guild Wars 2

So, I’m not sure if I’m the only one, but if I was doing some world bosses and I noticed that whenever the fight started and only during the fight my skills would take about 3-5 seconds between pressing and actually casting. Sometimes I have to spam the skill to get it to even work. I don’t believe it’s my computer as I’m able to run at 60fps on maximum normally, ~20 fps on maximum during World Bosses. I did try lowering the graphics settings to best performance but that didn’t affect the latency. Once the battles end, everything casts instantly again.

Is there any fix to this? I have more than enough internet speed (tested and shown to be between 70-95 Mbps down, 10 Mbps up) and it makes it frustrating trying to do the bosses. I don’t want to just sit there and spam 1…

I remember some months back there was a time when large scale fights (e.g. Mouth of Jormag for example) could lead to excessive lag. Sometimes skills would take up to 20 seconds or more to activate, also moving around seemed to be delayed – e.g. server still believed you were in one place, even after you’d moved away several seconds ago. Back then it seemed to be pretty clearly server side lag. I haven’t noticed it for a long time now, but also haven’t been in massive world events like that in a long while. I guess it’s not impossible for this to be the same issue just with lesser symptoms.

seems like it might be related to this same issue.
