Animations and lag, oh my

Lately my game has been acting weird. One of the following will happen at least once a round:

  • Enemy backswings do not show on my screen resulting in an instant attack that I can never react to
  • I chamber an attack and release, but nothing happens and my character keeps holding the swing
  • I chamber one attack direction but release a completely different one
  • Enemies chamber one attack direction but release a completely different one
  • Bolts and arrows that couldn't possibly miss do (this may be my bad aim but sometimes it really can't possibly miss)

These are the most common.

My first instinct is that this is lag related and I just gotta live with it. However, I have a very reliable internet connection (for Canada anyway) and my ping averages 20-30 ms on the NA server. I use WSE2 but I don't need do as my computer isn't a 1970s toaster, I just like certain features in it. Furthermore, I have played without WSE2 and the same things happen.

Anyone have any ideas how to diagnose this? I'm computer savvy but not to the point where I can diagnose issues like this.
