Ifrit glitch?

[prymortal]

Plumes are killing people when they are not on them & in many cases today not even near them. with moving away from them, & not moving at all & its not just today this goes back to when i first played ifrit a month ago.

Whats going on here, when i first played Ifrit i thought hmm its inexperiance now that i've played many times i know its eaither a glitch or a graphics probliem?

Even when K.O'd & your not on them you can see them hitting & sometimes moving your dead charactor.

If its a graphics probliem my graphics card is amd hd 6770, if its not can you sort it asap? you can still win even with the glitch but its really anoying!!!

It is not a glitch and it is not a graphics problem, it is latency issues. I am guessing you are NA and if you are you can expect to experience latency of up to 3 seconds or so i believe. If you live in europe than thats even worse.

oceania ~ new zealand, So technicaly its a bug not a glitch because devolopers have not allowed for it!

Well i just know that i have experienced being hit by eruptions and plumes without standing on them as well and that is because of server lag for me. There is usually 3 or more seconds between what i see and what happens. I live in Europe Norway so the lag can get pretty bad for me. That has not stopped me from beating ifrit though. You just have to learn how ifrit moved and when to dodge and when not to.

yea what your say is happening to the other players from EU & NA as well i talked to & yeah you can still win BUT SE better fix the damm thing! because its a slap in the face to players.

well i dont have athe actual refrence here, but SE did say that with the new servers it should be optimized for everyone no metter where you live. atm the only ones with decent ping ratio are the JP so we will se what SE does about it.
