Cyrodiil Lagg or LOS?

Hello,

Been playing a bit of PvP - Cyrodiil again recently and i notice, that the generall lagg isn't actually too bad. It seemed more like the reason that i can't cast abilities is the Line of Sight. When playing in first person mode i had almost no problem casting abilities, besides the fact, that it is unplayable like that. I changed back and immediately i can tell a difference, especially with growing swarm. For some odd reason that seems to be the ability causing the most problems for me.

Maybe other people could try it out or have similar experiences? :)

    Well if someone has LoS broken on you, you wont be able to cast on them.

    If you are pressing abilities and nothing is going off or there is a delay present, then it is ZoS's SERVER lagging....somehow many people confuse server lag with distance lag and some dont know the difference between client side performance fps issues(slideshow) with server side performance lag issues(rubber banding)

    It's not like they are behind a tree when i fail to cast abilities it happens in open area. I just had the impression it had to do with Line of Sight, due to how the lagg is acting. A lot of the times i can see / hear animations, but it won't cast, which is often the case if you loose line of sight.

    You see them in a position but with the server lag they may no longer be there so your ability won't cast. Similar to line of sight just nothing between you. Adding 1 item set to increase speed doesn't help.
