from few months im often getting this problem: when i switch weapon, like spear to shield, or i simply drag an item to another position in inventory, very often i get stuck in a terrible lag, that lasts several seconds, and i cant use pots, write, move or anything else.
is it only me?

I've noticed if you're running somewhere, or attacking, or doing anything besides standing... and you switch weapons, your character will stop until you manually start it again. I encounter this often on my rogue/bard when I'm running to a grind spot and want to put on a moving march. Switch weapons, character stops, activate skill, have to start running again, forget to switch back to xbow, switch, stop running, start running again...

I haven't tried to use pots or anything during those "stops" though. Not sure if that's what you're referring to.

no im not referring to that.
here's an example: im pvping, a blader knocks me down, i switch to shield when im laying on the ground. once i do this last thing, often i see the char equipped the shield, but in the inventory i still see the spear for several seconds, during that time i cant do anything ( pots / chat / etc ), rly annoying when pvping..

Two solutions-

1- Either your graphics card does not meet the requirements for the game or just the PC dosen't meet it.

2- It's just simple lag.

Not to nitpick, but those aren't solutions. They are possible causes. :P

Granted, a solution can be inferred from cause number 1. Namely, buy a better graphics card or upgrade the computer, although even that is a pretty general solution.

I'm just saying...
