wtf?

This is a problem that only seems to happen to me...i think. I have a tank mage, as we all do. My swing time differs greatly between standing next to someone.. and moving. I was testing this for a while.. had a guild mate stand in one spot.. if i was standing next to him, my swing time was fine, when was running 3 tiles up and down next to him.. my swing time cut down to more than half? if im running and catch up to someone.. say casting a spell. i have to stand there for 2 seconds before i swing.. primed to swing. wtf??

Obviously putting me at a serious disadvantage in pvp..... which goes without saying. does anyone else have this problem?? or am i just cursed by UO as i always have been ?

Everyone has that problem. It has been reported ad nauseaum from here to eternity, but unfortunately for you, and anyone else who ever wanted to kill someone with a weapon, it has been deemed era accurate despite its clear and obvious malfunction. Just use more magic imo.
