Movement speed and threatening rush?

forumnamesarelam

I have terrible ping (I live down in Australia) and I quite frequently "miss" with threatening rush, basically I come up short in the time it takes for my animation to play and hence I move, but no damage was done and I didn't connect with the target.

Now I'm assuming that this is because of my ping - because sometimes when the game is feeling responsive, then I don't hardly have this issue.

Now my question is - does movement speed increases affect this ability one way or the other? Ergo: If I invest in movement speed, will this somewhat combat the inherent ping disadvantage I seem to have with this ability?

Really, I love my GWF and I do pretty good in PvP (Cornelia Trainpuller, if you've ever run across me...) but I swim through a soup of lag all the time playing Neverwinter and I think I'm probably only half as good as I could be because of this, so anything I can do to try and get an edge would be appreciated...

Thanks!

Try jumping into your threatening rush. I've found that by doing this I am more likely to fully complete the animation or just not begin it at all.
