Game performance for multiplayer

I've been playing solo for a while and the game has been butter smooth. Last night my schedule finally aligned and I got the chance to try out multiplayer and I don't know if I can do that again. the game would (seemingly) randomly chug and inputs for skills wouldn't happen, the character would just stand in place instead of walking anywhere, and skill/attack zones sometimes wouldn't appear. I love playing games with friends and would appreciate it if the team put this on high priority if the game is going to be marketed as a multiplayer game.
