(Latency) Bug with the Orbs at "The Serpent"

This happens to us always. Sometimes we get lucky sometimes not. At the serpent, ppl just die due to this. Zenimax you need to look at it.

On my screen a person is behind me, on the other persons screen i am behind. Its eather lagg related(we all always have lagg) or its slow position updates between client and server.

This makes this mechanic luck dependend. Theres no place for luck in a game where you have leaderboards.

Here is a video about it to describe it visually.

I choose that music because i am sad bugs like this even exist.

    Noticed this as well.. posted a thread about latency and similar issues that disappeared very quickly. ^^

    This also seems to be the cause of those random "wtf I was definitely outside that cone"-deaths as well.. the orbs are just so obvious because it's not really possible to work around the bug, since there is so little time to take them.

    I have to say I hate when that happens as well, what I do is to just run early and grab one =D let someone else die, also try running through the bubble a little bit, it helps.

    Nobody should die there if you know how it works. People only die due to this bug at the orbs.
    We wanna keep up as much dps as possible, so we go for orbs when they appear. Not before ;)

    OP, what is the party addon you use to make it so nifty like that? Also is that combat cloud? Secondly, whats the addon for the hotkey potion stuff and the vertical stacking of your health, magicka, stamina?
