Clockwork city precursor target dummy & latency. (Answer inside.)

Placed the precursor target dummy at my house and decided to use it. My latency spiked wildly, going from 260 (normal) to as high as 999, making it virtually impossible to use skills.
Anyone else encountered large lag spikes using the dummy?

    Pre-patch, I would have weird instances with damage dummies in my guild hall where I'd get really high latency spikes while using the dummy. Post-patch I haven't noticed any latency spikes, but maybe they're connected?

    Guess this is a continuation of the lag spikes I've had, since the witches festival started.

    Do you use a mini-map add-on?

    While I do use a min-map add-on (AUI), it usually gives me very little latency for anything. However, when I first set up my precursor in my main house, and I was there while a friend was beating it up, my latency went sky high and my framerate dropped to 0 FPS for a bit. No idea why that is, considering that my usual framerate is above 60 FPS (which means it's fast enough that usually I don't notice any changes). In fact, because of that, I had to exit the area and return to fix my framerate problem after that. No idea why it happened, but it did (If it helps, house used was Linchal Grand Manor, and it's no where near fully filled by items).

    Inquired with members of the guild I'm part of, about the precursor dummy latency problems and I am not alone.

    Destinations (for some wild reason) will play funny with combat. I used to get huge lag spikes on the target dummy and in Cyrodiilwih it enabled. With it disabled, I have no issues anymore.

    Need to test this - I've been using Destinations for some time and never connected it to my lag spikes. Will disable it today and see how it playes out.

    @Anrose It is indeed destinations causing the lag. Thank you for the heads up. Now to find out if its responsible for lag in other area's of the game.
