PvP nullity

[JustOneMore]

As much as I like CO, I must admit I absolutely suck at PvP. I tend to play as monk, but I either can't click properly on the target using radiant palm, or the target has already fled from reach when using wwk, either due to my exhorbitant lag, or merely for the lack of skill that I can't deny...
Therefore, I was wondering if there's any... "trick" I can put to use, in order to, at least, win the random battle against the jumping noob (because yes, even though I'm pretty much far ahead, I still get slaughtered by noobs that just have a lower ping and are better with the mouse...).
Any pvp tip will be greatly appreciated, thank you very much.

Get close and keep rightclicking him like a mad drummer and dont stop clicking him whenever youre close if ur palming.

U can atleast pride urself that the higher ping you have, the bigger the challenge is and the harder it is to win, when u actually start to win some.

As a monk you have WWK which would be easy to use on its own. Get familiar with the radius of WWK and that way when an enemy jumps in that radius you can right click to hit him.
Take it further and practice WWKing an enemy then quickly switching to palm and hitting him.

Is your lag caused by your internet? Do you have Windows 8? CO isn't optimized for windows 8 and I've noticed my client will lag a tad on my Windows 8 computer compared to my windows 7 computer.

I know about the skill switching, I've read about how "noobish" it's supposed to be to use WWK+Palm, but I think my "noobiness" surpasses everything else, because I can't do that either xD
I suppose I should develop the routine of pressing F1 for pots, F2 to WWK and F3 to palm, but between that and pressing CTRL to jump, my fingers get all tied up.
I do have Windows 8, but I also have a crappy mobile connection, so I guess I can't expect better in that sense :P
