Anyone else had this?

WitchBurner - Sanctuary

I was running TT70 with three herc veno's in my faction and as I usually do, I was laying down some DD fire. I was also spamming the genie skill Extreme Poison(20% damage amp).

Whilst fighting Chientien:Dimentia I was doing this a lot(3 Extreme poison's every 30 seconds or so), towards the end of the fight I was casting Divine pyro(which usually takes 4 seconds to cast) and it took around 20 seconds to finish the animation. I have a pretty high power PC and a 4gig fiber optic connection so I don't usually lag(I do suffer from memory leak in arch).

Aferwards the whole running on the spot, other players not moving thing happened so I removed my genie and the lag stopped, things went back to normal.

Anyone else noticed huge lag building up when using genie skills?

Genie skills DO lag.
Most of the time if you use certain ones in rebirths people tell you to take your genie off before you fail.
Lots of pretty lights = lots of lag, common knowledge.

good lord that strained my eyes, but Extreme poison isn't exactly 'pretty lights', I mean I'd expect the lag from that bramble thingymabob.
