Pretty sure most of us have noticed RoA randomly pulling us from absurd distances much farther than the "12 meters" in its description. Just wondering if perhaps the Z-Axis of this set is not behaving like it should be? I know in the past abilities have had issues with Z-Axis that ZOS had to fix.
Can't they just give it a monster only flag? 🧐
There is something about how if you're passing through a path or... something... and with the lag... you end up moving super far away and then it feels like the server "catches up" and then yoink.

That is exactly what it is. Either you, the enemy player, or the entire server are lagging, and then everything catches up in a "snap," which can appear to be an out of range pull/push. Or several different delayed effects registering at once in a "one shot" effect.
This isn't exclusive to the RoA set.
1) The "12m" pull radius is absurd, to begin with. How many sets have 12m effects?
2) The lack of any warning whatsoever of the limits of the pull radius (unlike, for example DC: you can see the ground effect and block) is absurd.
We're cleaning up a lot of negative experiences with this set regarding how it feels to both use and have used against you by adding a delay time to the pull, as well as cleaning up a bunch of inconsistencies about how the pull applies and appears. While the pull should be easier to both position and react to now, the damage itself should present slightly more of a threat, since the delay between the pull affecting you and the damage going out has been reduced to 1 second. This should help the set feel more impactful against those who neglect the agony it can inflict, while simultaneously ensuring there are more opportunities to recognize and react to its threats. The radius increase should also help the pull become more of a selling point of the set for those who desire such control over their foes.
