Guild Wars 2

I have been having trouble with skill queuing not working properly for about 2 months. I play a grenade engineer so I am hitting the 1-5 skills a lot. Occasionally (sometimes every couple skill activations, sometimes a minute or more between) when hitting my next skill near the end of the activation bar of the previous skill, the game simply ignores my key press. The skill icon on the screen flashes indicating that the game registered the key press, but the skill doesn’t get used and my character just stands there looking like an idiot. It completely throws off my combat rhythm and I have taken to hitting each skill key several times every time I use it to make sure it actually works.

It seems to come down to timing. If I hit the skills slightly earlier it cancels my previous skill and if I hit it later my character is sitting idle for a split second between skills. Hitting the skill at the right time no longer works 100% of the time.
