Guys i know that this will not work for all. But after many days of searching through the forums and online guides i finally get rid of my imput latency. I decided to share this, because it may help you. And maybe you didn’t do the last step which i did:
My situation was like this:
I had latency imput and some lags from BOA
Even though i had low latency (World and Home latency (30 ms both)) i felt imput latency. Sometimes (few times in a minute) when i pressed button, the skill didn’t trigger and after a second or two it triggered, or sometimes not - a lag.
Some things you have done probably already, because there is full of this in the net. But i post all because i have done them all and maybe they all helped together.

  1. Clean system installation.
    a. (Set DNS to 1.1.1.1)

  2. Install WOW, and try without addons. (i still had a lags)

  3. Update drivers: you can instal some free driver utility to check which driver you need to update. There are many more drivers than you my think thats need to update. probably they are not mandatory, but there is a chance… (Even with updated drivers i had lags on fresh Windows and updated drivers)

  4. Set priority in Windows Services for WOW app to High (it helped a little)

  5. Turn off Batlenet when you are playing

  6. Set in game:
    /console SpellQueueWindow 180
    180 = 150 + 30 (my latency in ms)
    To veryfie:
    /dump GetCVar(“SpellQueueWindow”)
    It didn’t helped

  7. Set in Game:
    Reduce imput lag - it helped a little
    Directx 11
    Optimize network for speed

  8. This Step helped the most:
    Uninstall unnecessary apps in powershell. Especially XBOX !!!
    Get-AppxPackage Microsoft.XboxApp | Remove-AppxPackage
    And rest:
    Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers -Name Microsoft.WindowsAlarms | Remove-AppxPackage
    Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers -Name Microsoft.WindowsCamera | Remove-AppxPackage
    Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers -Name Microsoft.ZuneVideo | Remove-AppxPackage
    Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers -Name Microsoft.MicrosoftSolitaireCollection | Remove-AppxPackage
    Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers -Name Microsoft.WindowsMaps | Remove-AppxPackage
    Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers -Name Microsoft.ZuneMusic | Remove-AppxPackage
    Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers -Name Microsoft.Office.OneNote | Remove-AppxPackage
    Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers -Name Microsoft.BingWeather | Remove-AppxPackage
    Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers -Name Microsoft.Getstarted | Remove-AppxPackage
    Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers -Name Microsoft.SkypeApp | Remove-AppxPackage
    Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers -Name Microsoft.BingSports | Remove-AppxPackage
    Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers -Name Microsoft.BingNews | Remove-AppxPackage

I hope that this will help you.

The only thing you did what most likely helped is switching back to DX11.

The rest is utter nonsense.
I mean just look at the hoops you made yourself jump through to, supposedly, get a slightly better input lag improvement.

This is clearly either client side DX12 related, which requires a patch.
Or some weird server side problem, which is way more likely because pretty much every single thread about this reports problems in the 3 kul tiras Island zones.

Nowhere else but there… so thats mostly likely pointing to a server thing.
