For me personally I didn't even try to run to the sides I ran right towards tidus :p. seemed to work for me ha.
Move out of the way. I haven't had any problem since P4 started. At all. I haven't checked my latency lately, (last I checked, I had 700ms) however my internet is probably just above the legal limit to sell. Me and my brother both play on this horrendous .8 download and .15 upload. Neither of us have any issues with AoE circles, cones or strips. Just move faster is all you need to do.

In regards to the video, I would love to know what YOUR internet speeds/latency are. They are probably even worse than mine.
700ms + 333ms is over a 1 second latency. With a 1.5 second cast time that gives you .5 seconds to move out of the way. You cant even get out of some boss AoE circles in .5 seconds. Before level 50 it is easy to get out of the retard red circles. You will never be able to do any end game other than the Story mode stuff with a 1 second latency. Lol at trying to move out of the way of Ifrits charge with a 1+ second latency. By the time you see where the 3 of them are you will have already been hit.
I rarley have a problem with the latency, the problem is that sometimes I do. With <50 second latency I should never have a problem getting out of a red circle and then having it hit me like 1 second later. I also see this as a healer much worse. When I cast a heal it can take as long as .5+ seconds before I see the person I healed health go up. This is something that should happen instantly. You can work around it and get used to it sure, but you should not have to.
fyi just dug it out: http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...ects-everybody)
I'm a Tank and thus I have evaded L O T S of AoEs up until now. I never had an issue like in that video, in fact I'm surprised about it. Is this some latency-problem? I don't think tanking would be possible with something like that, but thanks god it really hasn't happened to me until today.
