Hit boxes is awful?

So uhhhh....I rolled a Trickster Rougue class because im bad and after playing through 11 levels i started to notice one thing.....THE HIT BOXES ARE AWFUL. I have never played a game with action combat where an enemy holding a sword can still damage me when im 10-30yards away from them. Im pretty good at dodging when i see them charge up or whenever the red circles appear and that just doesnt seem to matter because i still get hit regardless. The only way for me to avoid damage is make sure i trigger the "Dodge" popup everytime. Now as a lvl11 this isnt a very big deal because im only taking 10-40dmg per hit but Im having to waste tons of potions and I can see this becoming a HUGE issue when/if i make it to the higher levels because every drop of HP will count. Is this just a temporary problem caused by the lag? Am i the only one having this issue? Comment below, let me know!

    I'm at level 12 and I don't seem to have an issue, though I maul down most things before they hit me as a TR so I haven't paid too much attention.
    Common sense is hard to come by around here it seems..

    Ithink it's not so much the hitbox, it's the moment in the animation that counts as hit. I've noticed that if you leave the hit box after the point of no return in an attack animation you still get hit. I'm sure there's a reason for it, but it's hella frustrating. It's worse for guardian fighters. You get your shield up before the blow strikes, but still get hit. I want twitch blocking/dodging!

    I honestly have not seen that happen. It sounds like lag.
