I was incapped by a Marauder...hit FOW and a few second laters was DB. Then I get hte message that I cant FOW while dead.
The server nor area was lagging in any noticable way.
Has anyone else noticed if the FOW is on teh same 3-4 second delay as the heal and armor/weapon change is?

Not talking about the reuse timer.
I am talking about the combat queue timer.
If there is a 3-4 second delay to use FOW like there is before and after using a stim, then FOW is usless unless you are incapped by a NPC 64m away.

Every FOW I've ever used was instantaneous. It sounds like you got hit by wacky lag.

FoW is still instant. However, high level mobs really like to deathblow you instantly too. So, what likely happened is you were killed and instantly death blowed, but it took a second for you to see it because of the lag, thus the message about FoWing when dead too.
This is why when I know I'm about to incap, especially if its against NPCs(where you stand a better chance at pulling this off), I try to put as much distance between me and my enemy as possible so I can buy myself the second or so I need to FoW and avoid an instant death blow.
