Summary	0019716: Cast time ability refusing to fully cast - due to lag
Description	Reporter: bloodmasked This is one of the issues I experience presumably due to my 280 ping from playing in New Zealand. Likely also impacts Australian players. I don't know how to better describe this code-wise, if it is a 'client' issue or what not. The other one I described is when cooldowns occur due to pressing abilities too quickly. That one is here https://github.com/WarEmu/WarBugs/issues/19677 This bug is when I cast Khaine's Invigoration it cancels its cast before it finishes. I am not being taunted or interrupted so it cannot be that reason. The way I am sure of that is because it can happen several times in a row, when there is nobody even near me and the tanks clearly are not using taunt ability on me. What I believe to be the issue is the game (or client?) is not updating to realise that Khaine's Invigoration is off-cooldown. It has a 5 second long cooldown. The reason I believe this to be the case is because the bug seems to not occur with my other cast time abilities like Restore Essence (0.5sec cast) and Khaine's Embrace (1.0sec cast), as those two abilities have no cooldown, Khaine's invigoration being 0.5s cast. I have never heard of other Doks or players complain about either of the bugs I experience (first being cooldowns without abilities firing, and second being abilities refusing to cast). So it is likely requiring a high ping like mine (approx 280) to be such a common occurrence and issue. For example, I will try to cast Khaine's Invigoration once, and it refuses to fully cast. Then cast it again, same issue. Then a 3rd time and it does the same thing. It seems the easiest way to avoid the bug is to cast a different ability and then return to trying to cast Khaine's Invigoration. However, this workaround is no real solution because this ability is one of my most important and strongest. And there is no workaround to it failing the first time because I can't anticipate that happening.

It does not fire but it goes in CD (this never happened in live). the sich seems similar (coldown stuff) but of course other variables. If you have a long/complex LAN mapping in your house you may also look at it and see if it improve. Over time with adding routers on each floor and switcher those packet get real messy. Had to fix this problem recently.

Very annoying bug, can easily cause group to die due to being unable to do anything for almost 10 seconds. https://streamable.com/tub5hb > It can happen that you cast a skill and it get interrupted pre animation is ended with a KD for exemple.

I am not sure what you mean by this but I will ask some tech savvy persons I know irl. Ty for helping.
