Interesting stuff about the changes to Client-Server communication. Ever since 1.11.2 (possibly 1.11.1, I was away) was implemented I have been seeing semi-random but always looming disconnection issues. Interestingly, this is when Furor started to "lag" (it being broken aside). Previously - including 1.11 - the rage/energy gain from furor was instant, however it now seems to be related to the global cooldown.
Given that the continues to lag - and that Blizzard have been made away of this many times - one can only assume that these changes are here to stay. Furor I can live with, but please tell me why your patches have ruined my connection.
A very interesting read Quark, although I would probably let it lie for a week to see what happens as things stabilise. I have no doubt that skill delays will remain once the dust settles, at which point the post will be more pertinent.:)
(NOTE: This is not a problem issolated to me. Many people have exerienced it. Firewalls, routers, network connections, mice in exercise wheels have all been adjusted as per tech supports advice to no avail. It appears to be something about the way the packets are being sent. I miss one and disco.)
