Anything that glows - i.e. mainly confluxes, teleport crystals and avatars. Shadows and weather effects too. It's a lot better on my current pc than my old one though, I remember doing Pandemonium Warden not long before I got my new pc, and when it used AF my framerate dropped to where I could barely move my character at all. But even now I have issues when doing ADL for example, those 2 torches by the ??? drop my framerate by quite a lot if I'm standing near them.

There's nothing wrong with my internet connection, it's very stable. My pc and graphics card is more than sufficient to play this game.


I fully agree with Mirage here:

If Battlefield 3 was like FF11 you would need four GTX 690s in quad-SLI and a 5 GHz 16-core CPU to run it at 30 fps and medium graphics settings. But hey, all you gotta do is buy a PC that doesn't suck, right?

and as far as this statement goes:

Personally, FFXI is the only game I play. So why should I have to cough up 3k for a pc to play it without experiencing lag?
