Hi guys, I thought that if anyone knew the answer to this it would be you guys.....only ones that think in pvp!!!!
I am master carb, tkm with other defense skills too , and i can usually db between 3-4 in pvp battle. My query is that when i incap a player sometimes the body slides quite a distance so i have to run to them and db them, putting me off my pvp stride. Now originally i though this was a medic dragging them out of the battle for a heal, but i have noticed this as well when fighting 1 on 1 too....in the middle of nowhere...with no one else around.
My question is ,,, is there a skill i have overlooked , such as slide before he db's me button!! ... or is it game glitch like the much loved bike warp!!
Probably easy answer....but i would like to know as it is annoying thatwe cant ranged db...
Cheers Guys

It's lag. You will see him in one spot, while he will see himself in another. Since you are both constantly moving, the server cannot keep up with postion changes very quickly. It is like this throughout the entire fight, you just don't realize it. Once he is incapped, the server finally reports back to you where he is more accurately because he has stopped moving around, allowing the server to "catch up" and finaly figure out where he is.

this happens a lot when fighting NPC's as well, Stormtroopers for instance... it's not just in PvP
