World PvP desync / lag

[Bonsai 0]

Hi there. So I've been on the server for a few weeks and made my way to level 40 so far.

I run the game perfectly smooth and I have a decent ping of 20-30 ms. In PvE I have no issues whatsoever.

An issue I have run into so far is every time I get ganked or engage in any type of PvP combat, It feels extremely desynced or laggy, with a delay of 1-3 seconds.

If for example a warrior charges me, I get stunned etc, but his body doesn't reach me until a few seconds later and I am chunked to 20% before I get a chance to react.

I've been asking around in-game if anyone else are experiencing this and so far nobody are experiencing the same.

Anyone who has had this happen to them and maybe know a solution? I've been digging around but I can't find anything.

Thanks :)

The specific example you cite is not lag but just a visual error.  The warrior charge is a near instant teleport but the visual in game is much slower (and HOJ or sword talent spec swings among others don't show as individual swings so sometimes you see yourself get hit once but 2 or 3 swings actually occurred).  

The lag I notice are the problems I have melee leeway distance.  I'm constantly complaining to myself when I'm directly on top of my opponent and my character refuses to swing way too often.

Greetings Bonsai, I am sorry to hear that you are experiencing lag while in PvP. Unfortunately, there is nothing we can really do from our end. But here are some tips that can boost game performance. First try deleting your WDB/WTF folder from the WoW directory, but make sure that the game is fully closed. Another great tip is to make sure that you any useless background applications are closed. I hope this information was useful. 

 

Have a great day!,
