Titan Extreme Lag Issues

I'm having the same issues, but I blame my Internet connection more. Since everyone stacks up front would using repelling shot work?

I sometime use Repelling Shot to dodge WoL but frankly I don't recommend it.
Its CD isn't up for every WoL, and you will realize when you are in the middle of 5 WoLs. And one mis-click = dead.

Anyway, Repelling Shot can dodge WoL just fine if execute within certain time after WoL appear.

This will cause your character to appear to be outside of an aoe, but in reality you are still inside it.
If you cast nothing and run, you will always make it. It is that simple.

hmm interesting. I cant pass this fight for the life of me all cos I die on wotl. will try this next time...

Biggest change for me was hard wiring my connection, went from crazy rubber banding to NONE whatsoever

Sad thing is I have a wired connection, just here Internet companies are so bad. I'm honestly thinking on dropping the game if they are going to make everything a super dodge fest, and I really do like the game.

I didn't know this, thanks for that advice.

Latency spike like everyone else that has the problem. I've had two friends download WTFast and they now swear by it. One of these friends lives in Australia and suffered 4000ms Ping spikes during Titan. He now dodges like a boss.

If youre complaining of slowdown/pauses it doesnt sound like internet troubles
Overlapping wotl's does cause framerate drops, on lowspec laptops or old ps3's I can see that being a problem, but not one thats likely to be high on the issue list

in a safe spot to remedy the server oddity

This is what I am also pointing at.
In conclusion I always do an action as soon as I leave the WoL area, to force the server to know that I am out.

The issue is that updating position data (and not using animations during the cast) should not be necessary to dodge anything. Also needing to download 3rd party programs just to be able to dodge also shouldn't be necessary. There are a lot of players who are not tech savvy, and also a large PS3 audience who cannot even utilize those applications.

I've said it hundreds of times and I'll say it again. Progression should be skill based, and not location, software or hardware based (as long as the minimum spec requirements are met). Each and every player should be on a level playing field, else don't even bother to release the game in specific locations (AU/NZ tends to have an extreme amount of issues regarding this).
