Input Latency / Lag

I’ve been noticing this issue where there seems to be a varying amount of input latency when in combat. It’s especially noticeable with hasted globals like fel blade for example. My Ms is usually 20-30 playing on OCE, and FPS not an issue either which i’ve limited to 120.

When using abilities, it feels a lot more like i’ve got 200ms (and i’ve had a mess around with the spell queue window as well which seems to make no difference to this at all) which is super frustrating because it’s slowing my entire rotation down a lot. It seems to start off without any input latency, then shortly after being in combat for maybe 2-3s it’s quite noticible.

I’ve tried everything from compatability modes, turning off all addons, repairing the client, changing all graphical settings, changing graphics API from DX12 to 11 etc, nothing seems to make any difference.

I’ve also got the same issue on both my home computer, and my work computer which are completely different hardware setups. Home comp is a Ryzen 5, with AMD graphics card, and work comp is an intel i7 with a Nvidia card… Neither computer has FPS or MS issues and can run the game itself perfectly fine, but both seem to suffer from this input latency problem.

Also like to point out that this happens in every zone, regardless of how busy the shard is.

Does anybody else experience or notice this issue?

I am having extreme world latency issues. It will be fine one minute but I enter a new zone, dungeon, or group and im at 15K. The weird part is it is completely random. I have two accounts and I can be on one account with normal world latency in the same spot as a toon on another account, but that toon has 15K world latency.

Idk what is going on or how to fix the issue im having. I’ve tried everything. Home is at like 50 MS.

Just started for me this morning.

yeah i got the same issue as well. sometimes it happens within 5 mins sometimes takes 20 to 30 mins. either it becomes unresponsive or just kicks me off the server

I think I get the same issue? Feels like some skills lock up/freeze when you press them, very noticeable when I button mash and occurs on specific classes more than others (DK, Warrior, Shaman).

I have also tested multiple PCs and keep getting the issue. I don’t remember it being a problem before Dragonflight.
