So i'm guessing that each of those bars in the Limit Break gague are individual levels after watching some of that battle.

I was yelling, "HIT THE DAMN NAIL" the entire time. (e_e);

Haha I was too!
Maybe we'll see another attempt later on.

Did anyone record it? I have friends who missed it =$

EDIT:
The wonderful Doctor Mog assisted =)

is it just me, or were they lagging? the archer was well out of the eruptions, and still got hit.

I saw the same thing. Does not bode well for SE if this garbage isn't fixed. This was literally the number one problem of the entire basic core gameplay and I was furious when I saw it.

It looks like they weren't familiar with their abilities even, so I did feel some pity for them at first... But they should have learned from their mistakes by reading the Archer's messages and listening to announcers telling them to focus on the fetter-nails; which should have allowed them to win on the second attempt. Soooo...

NO SHIRT FOR YOU!


The intention for the Ifrit fight might now rely more on reading when he's readying Eruption and immediately moving - if its position now stays on the point where the target was when it started casting.

Looked more like the fact she stood there a good second after it started appearing then tried to get out of the way it was too late. "We don't know" if it's due to how the AoE works in ARR, considering the entire system is different from 1.0.

I believe it wasn't lag so much as her jumping that messed it up. The last point her feet touched the ground were within the blast range from the look of it, then she jumped and maybe the server doesnt calculate where you are until your feet land?
