My latency isnt great soo i have two choices: either pop reflect and bait another spell soo perhaps i have time to get out of earthbind and charge him or hope that he actually fakecasts and do nothing. Please anyone who has tested it tell me if its working.

Its really hard since visually you can't know, it has a preset window in which you get damaged no matter what, so if you run, visually you get the "fireball" or w/e projectile, a lot later, but you get hurt X amount of time before.

It all depends on at the range you're at when the spell finishes casting, so if you're at max range and move closer, visually it will hit you, but damage you as if you were further away (to a certain MAX like i explained above).

If you add into that latency, or worse, lagg, forget about baiting certain spells.

For me, i'm ok, I seem to easily fakecast and get enemies to waste interupts, but I can imagine that with lagg its quite impossible.
