They've got bigger problems than lag. Players who abused the bat form are the same people now abusing Sorc and DK Standard/Talon w/ Sword and Shield.
If vampire bat swarming was considered abuse because of the ability to lower the ultimate cost, then having a 75 ult standard that equals instant death for anyone not VR10 is also abuse.
Just because the developers have left a mess as far as balancing is concerned does not mean that taking advantage of it is not ill gotten gains.

Instant death? What are you smoking and can I have some? Do you know you can ROLL in this game? Do you?

This would be better advice if the dodge roll wasn't a little... twitchy.
First, don't forget, you have to have the requisite amount of Stamina to roll (when you're being held by talons and being beaten on often by multiple people, you generally don't have the second or two to wait for your Stamina to regen and let's face it, the Quickslot function we have in-game is not great for quickly switching between pots so unless you have the Stamina pot already selected so you can just hit the Quickslot key to drink it, you're probably out of luck).
Second, I have flat-out had many times when my character should have dodge-rolled and just... didn't. I had enough Stamina, I did the double-tap, and... nothing. (Sadly, I see the same thing happen with weapon-switching - sometimes, I press the key and the game simply doesn't register it).
Third, I'm noticing there are cc options that prevent you from dodge-rolling and switching weapons (which makes it eve harder in PvP-land to tell when you're dealing with the "unresponsive game" bug and when you are genuinely cced).
