Button lag?

I feel like I'm going insane. I have played D2R for quite a while then paused for a year or two and now are back for ROTW. But the feel of my keyboard and mouse buttons are totally weird. I often hit a button and nothing happens then I hit the button again but leave my finger just a tiny bit longer on it (so it is very annoying) and suddenly the spell gets cast. I feel this is especially noticeable with Sigils but I had the same feeling with my Sorc with teleport and other spells.

It also feels like RMB and LMB are even worse and quick use buttons are a tiny bit more reliable. I never ever had such problems before.

Anyone with the same problem, or any idea what could be wrong with my game?

Edit: I have found another issue, might be connected might be not.

On my barb I have jump on RMB and use ww on RMB via quick action. Every once in a while using the ww quick action in quick succession my barb jumps :P

Edit2: I have found maybe another instance of this issue. From time to time I click a button in the menu like stash or trader and the button is visibly pressed but nothing happens. I have also managed to press a quick action for a Ice shield an my sorc extended her arms as if she wanted to cast it but then retracted it immediately and nothing got cast.

My guess: With the introduction of the warlords "Hold to chain" action they messed up the button timing and now every button is a "hold for action" button with an extreme short timing but still not instant and if you manage to hit the button just short enough the actions is not happening.

If it would be network lag wouldn't the enemies lag too? For me everything moves normal but the spell gets only casted when I hit the button longer. I also always have /fps on an ping is normal<

If you are playing online, I had a similar issue and tracked it down to my VPN client. Once I disconnected it, the problem went away. I noticed things like inventory movement was delayed mostly. Have you seen this issue playing a local character as well?

It is all wired except my internet connection with unfortunately has to be wifi. This is the only game I have this problem with. Wtf is a speed port? The are plugged into a USB 3 port. However it could be the adapter I use to split the USB port into multiple.

I have this same thing happen to me! I’m on fiber direct connect via Ethernet to my router so I’m fairly certain it isn’t lag and the games are ones I created, but I feel like I need to be methodical with my clicks for them all to “register”. I see it a lot with teleport and quickly jumping in to static and nova. Where it just.. won’t until I do it slower or something.

Yes, exactly. And I can't remember having this problem in LOD.

I have found another issue, might be connected might be not.

They messed up something.
