148825-delay-on-abilities

== Content ==
			Hi, I'm not sure where to open this topic, but I'm having a delay on all my abilities and nothing else. What happens is that I press the spell, but it takes a while for the input to go through. l tried changing my graphics settings but that didn't do anything. Latency is at 50-70 fps. Any help would be appreciated :)

			Yes but what ones!

			Jabbit and Luminai

			What is your latency in milliseconds?	
----
			34-35 ms	
----
			is that your latency or ping time? Are you using hold to continue casting? What class are you playing? What skills are you using? Are you in understanding of global cooldowns? 	
----
			sounds more like a packet-loss issue.

			Sorry, I'm not exactly sure how to check for ping time. Pressing alt+f1 gives me two figures which say ms and fps. Ms is pretty stable at 34-35, while fps goes from ranges from 50-70. Whether I use "Hold to continue casting" or not doesn't seem to make much of a difference. I'm playing a warrior and the skills that I'm using are Relentless Strikes, Rampage, Breaching Strikes, Savage Strike, Whirlwind, Kick, Augment Blade and Leap. They all experience the delay, which is most noticeable on the first click and when trying to use Rampage. However, I also have a low level stalker which has the same issue. I understand global cooldowns and I have the ability queue on.I've been testing out other things recently and found that sprinting in combat, looting and talking to quest givers is also delayed, however dashing, talking to merchants and checking mail boxes works fine.

			I agree with Olivar sounds like packet loss. You cannot cast most abilities when sprinting just FYI. Are you clicking as you say or are you using your keyboard to press the corresponding key for the skills? If i recall clicking does not activate a skill until you release the mouse button. If you are clicking thats whats causing your delay if im remembering correctly. Also do not click your skills, use your keyboard.

Use this Addon to tell us your real ping please.

			So I logged in today to test my ping with the addon and everything seems to be fixed. The delay is gone. I have no idea what happened, because I didn't change anything except for install the addon (which shows 55ms btw). To make sure I restarted the game and logged in on my Stalker and he was fine too.Shoryuken, I've always used my keyboard instead of the mouse and I haven't tried using skills while sprinting.Either way, thank you all for your help :). I guess I'll bump this thread if this happens again.
