Trees and the battle of the best ping

Does tree hugging give an advantage to the person with the better ping?

I am constantly unable to fire or cast during these encounters.
My ping is at best 200ish and goes up quick from there, often times bouncing about and having downloads appear mid fight, like my game is saying ....hmmm he's fighting again ......lets dump some info and re-download now!!!

I am positive this is happening to others because I see some acas completely froze up like me at time in a fight and I just leave after a SF or DS.

but this is particularly bad when you bring an obstacle in to the equation.

It's like every failed attack due to using the obstacle causes a ghost global cooldown that compounds with each failed attack. Could this be the case, does anyone else think this happens to them?

I've seen these youtube videos with guys and their 20-90 ping and I'd like to say the advantage to them around obstacles seems massive.

My suggestion is to decrease the actual obstacle width by 1/2 of all trees because it takes away all skill and becomes a battle of the best ping.

I would like to offer another option drop a Server in the US for Haven.

Let the JAJAs and those in Europe enjoy the lag a bit and see what fighting is like with 200+ ping and resources constantly downloading is like.
