Maybe I missed it in the patch notes but I have not had any lag or rubber banding recently. Hope it is not just because the servers have less people on.
No, Iām still rubberbanding like crazy even in solo online sessions. EUW ping is showing around 10-20ms yet almost every time I teleport I get put back a few metres. I sometimes get pulled back when just running and my shots occasionally donāt even happen when I click the button and then a second later all the mobs are dead.
Itās not game-breaking but definitely annoying.

I also have rubber banding after teleports. Very little to no lag during combat/running around, only movement skills. During boss fights is when I experience the worst of it, ex: Teleport/Rampage out of the boss aoe, skillsā¦rubber bands right back into boss damage usually resulting in death.

You must have just had a really lucky session. Like the other said I was still getting it all evening even solo. For me it tends to happen most and most severely in maps like Bloodworks when you have many mobs packed into small areas or corridors.
Im sure they are well aware of this issue and really hope they increase/improve the servers come launch time or its gonna be a really bad day.

Purchased the game 5 days ago and it worked pretty perfectly for the first 2-3 days. Itās been horrendous the past few though. idk if itās because I got to endgame and unlocked more mob density / skill spam / what but itās nigh on unplayable.
To start, Lunge just likes to glitche out and freeze you in place. If you can lunge to something else youāre fine, but if you have nothing in range to lunge to you have to switch to a different skill with a cast/movement ability (I use shield rush) to get out of it. This has gotten me killed several times on maps where thereās 2-3 of those shrines that shoot at you with AoE damage from afar until you kill them. Supremely frustrating.
Other issues is what others are talking about which is the general lag / rubberbanding. I would say close to 80% of my deaths, if not a bit higher, are due to this. I canāt even begin to count how many times Iāve moved on my screen out of something only to get rubberbanded back in and killed. Or lagging / dropping frames so bad after killing groups of enemies that I legitimately canāt even more and die to that. On top of the lunge bug it makes me not even want to speed through empowered monoliths because itās almost guaranteed to lag me and make me die.
I really really really want to like this game, and in the 5 days Iāve played it I have 39 hours in. But Iām extremely close to asking Steam support for a refund because itās just not fun at this point to die to stuff completely outside of my control and have to take the game slow when Iām running a faster build because of, again, problems outside my control

I havenāt been experiencing rubber banding anymore whereas the game was almost unplayable for me like one week ago.
Not to dismiss others experiences but I havenāt experienced any of the afforementioned issues except rubber banding with Julraās teleport ability and strange displacement with Julraās ability and Volatile Reversal (i.e. not going where I expect it to when I change maps)
It would be helpful to state what server you are connecting to, and what your average ping to that server is.
34 MS, US west.
Ran a speedtest online, 921.65 Mbps DL, 744.04 Mbps UL
Ping in ms for connection was 2, DL ping 18, UP ping 9
Any other game I play including FFXIV, D3, WoW, League, Overwatch, etc I always have sub-50 ms ping and 0 issues.
Unfortunately it doesnāt appear that the issue is on my end. I wish it was since that would be an easy fix, but Iāve dug through numerous logs and tried a variety of fixes but none have worked.
EDIT: Just encountered yet another game breaking bug. Nothing ever spawned in an Echo I went into - it was an arena one where the waves spawn and I waited ~5 minutes but nothing happened. I teleported out and now am unable to interact with that empowered monolith at all. I can get to the screen where you choose the Normal or Empowered version, and Normal works fine, but when I click āChooseā on the Empowered one nothing happens.
Iāll come back after beta, the game is more than worth the cost but not with the frustration all of these things that are outside of my control bring. Best of luck to you all!
I just quit the game as itās been lagging heavily today. Entered an echo (thankfully didnāt contain anything important) and was lagging back and forth for a couple seconds. After that I only saw two enemies yet when I kept running through āemptyā areas something was attacking me and I started bleeding. Tried placing a portal to get out of there but it didnāt even show up.
All day today itās been buggy as hell. Skills not shooting, or my lightning blast triggering instead of my static orb, sometimes Iād trigger a spell and nothing would happen, then a couple seconds later the enemies I initially casted the spells on would suddenly die but not disappear and have an empty health bar above their heads, etc.
Itās been real bad lately. Iām on a gigabit line so internet speed is not an issue. Ping to EUW is showing around 10-20ms depending on the time so clearly their servers are just not coping with the load. Also, I donāt understand why I need to constantly sync with the server if Iām playing alone, damn it.
