When fighting with a mob or encountering this mob i lag

Hi,

First off, all the mobs i have face *except rnk 45+++* i have never encounter this kind of bug, but im not sure if its bug. I never face this kind of problem before back during the Closed Beta period, where now when i face this and the enemy use teleportation, it make me really really lag to sometime make my FFXIV crash.

Only this monster that i know that can teleport; Gnat. This fly-bug thinggie when ever im fighting it or other great adventurers try to kill it. At the exact same time it does it teleportation skill and unleashed the doom-lightning onto unsuspecting adventurers, i get lag really badly. even today, just now doing a quest that require me to kill Gnat; I lag terribly only on this monsters.

I wish if any player who also found this problem can come and plea for this to be fix. It's a little turn off for me because of this unstable client, i have made 3-4 report of this back in the first launch until now it's still not fix... . hope this get fixed in future.



Also to note;
Ever since the new patch where monster are resize, the Gnat too got a little bigger, and when ever it does the teleportation skill, i lag + my screen goes black for a minute, sometimes up to 3-4 minutes.. Lagging that long is a turn off.

Might be more of a performance problem with your system, I don't encounter this lag at all. Post your system specs.

strange is that this wasn't an issue during closed and open beta :C

here ma specs

Intel Core 2 Duo E7400 @ 2.80 GHz
Asus P5G41C-M LX
Kingston HAG 4GB 8500 CL5 DDR2
ATI Radeon Sapphire 4870 HD
Cooler Master Hyper CPU

:\ although i do have a crosshair IV formula and a Phenom II X6 1075T, i havent get a good ram yet to fit in those to my current set. xD

I've experienced this problem before, but rather intermittently. My game would essentially freeze for a few seconds when this ability was performed by gnats.

Hasn't happened in a while. Then again, I haven't played for months.

People kept saying is my PC problem, but i do not think so this is the main problem because during open beta, i'm perfectly fine when fighting this Gnat's when they teleport'ed.
