The definition of stationary is the same, but 3.8 introduced a delay to consecrated ground. You spawn it under your feet as soon as you could in 3.7, but in 3.8 it takes time before it starts doing something.

I guess it was stealth/unintentionally changed when patch 3.7.1 dropped (https://www.pathofexile.com/search/results/sanctuary/search-within/posts-threads/forums/366).

After doing some frame counting, I think I understand part of what's going on. Stationary seems to activate after 18 or 19 frames of standing still (easily testable by letting go of move), but what counts as standing still when casting spells/blink teleports?

I did a test with Frostblink, which is able to activate stationary while continuously holding down move. I held click to move in one direction, used Frostblink in that direction, then immediately moved my cursor to a new direction 90 degrees off. Examining it frame-by-frame, I counted about 4 frames before Frostblink activated (used mana) after pressing the skill button, 8-9 frames of blinking until the character (and screen) began moving in the new direction, then another 9-10 frames until the consecrated ground buff icon showed up. So the ~18 frame rule worked out, but half of the time the character was able to freely move. What? Why?

Why, in the character sheet, the
"30% more chance to Evade Melee Attacks during Onslaught
30% more chance to Evade Projectile during Onslaught"
from raider ascendancy
isn't counted while it is in pob ?

That's a Path of Building bug, not an issue with Path of Exile. Did you check the configuration box to turn on Onslaught?
