Spells Constantly Being Interrupted (Specifically Necro)

[Cogwell]

I'm with Estu.

A small amount of lag is causing the server to register that you are still moving, even though on your client you have fully stopped. One trick that was told to me, on live years ago, is to very briefly turn right/left (basically just tap left then right arrow) after you stop before you start a spell. I was told this had some effect in communicating with the server that you stopped, but it might just be the brief delay is enough to prevent the problem. Regardless, that's worked for me for 14 years.

This is what I've always done as well. It was especially great back in the day when playing with the old UI and in first person when trying to quad or kite, since you wanted to turn around to see where the stuff chasing you was also.
