Lag/Skill lag

I didn't experience this earlier in the game (Khenarthi's Roots and Auridon), but in both Grahtwoods and Greenshade it has been a problem for me. I'm talking about not being able to use abilities (skills, ultimate, potions/food) but being able to run around just fine. This has happened both in and out of combat and has caused me dying many times. In a 3-4 hour gaming session (usually the longest I play consecutively) I encounter this problem 3-5 times, which I find quite much.

Additional info:
I play a Breton Templar equipped with:
1. Reflective Light
2. Binding Javelin
3. Puncturing Sweep
4. healing, currently Steadfast ward
5. healing, currently Blessing of restoration
U. Solar Disturbance

The healing skills (4-5) I switch so I train other healing skills as well. The same problem has happened with other healing skills equipped as well, such as; Radiant Aura, Cleansing Ritual, Ritual of Rebirth, Breath of Life, Rapid Regeneration, Healing Springs.

I can't see that my problem is coming from what skills I use so I guess it's a game issue.

Anyone else have the same problem?

Ps.
My internet line is solid with 50mbps and no other users one the same line when playing.

    Yes, I find similar issues, and have to press the button several times before it is executed. This is a major problem given if I assume this is always the case I will execute the same skill more than once, which means I run out of magica before killing the enemy... The main concern I have is that If I try to play within my abilities, (i.e. fight 3-4 NPC's) I often am penalized by dying due to a spell not firing, and die (that is how Glass Cannons work) If I just fight against 1-2 NPC's then I can get away with it, but I feel that I am being cheated here... If the behavior continues I will not be renewing my subscription that's for sure, as modifying my play style to accommodate lag is something I don't intend to do.
