HM Titan Quicksand delay

And so to backup your argument of bad connectivity speed to a server, you judge a players usefulness and a whole class.
TO be rude, you are bad if you cannot understand what Defiant is telling you. Unless you are lagging pretty badly, you can avoid these AoEs....if you can't, well, then you are pretty bad.

Main tanks don't have to dodge anything in most of the content. It's just a fact. Sorry if this gets your collective panties in a bunch. It's pretty easy to say "lol the game is fine" when your role doesn't have to worry about any of the problems anyone else is having. I love the personal offense you took though, clearly you think that you're hot shit at this 2.5 second GCD MMORPG, which apparently takes lots of skill.

"Bad connectivity speed to a server" - what? Both you and him clearly don't understand the problem in the slightest. Which again is unsurprising considering it's irrelevant to you. It's to do with how utterly awful, unresponsive and just generally laggy battles in this game are, not anyones "bad connection."

Uhh, what? Do you realize how many mobs in this game have either a breath attack or a centered aoe that decent tanks should be dodging? Even on HM Ifrit, tanks should be moving to dodge the outside plumes. While there aren't as many one shot abilities as say HM Titan, a tank has plenty of opportunites to test whether they can move out of aoe attacks in this game.

For what it's worth, I've had no instances where I'm out of an aoe, but still get hit by it. I'm not saying that this isn't a real issue for people, but for me, if I get hit by an aoe, it's because I didn't react fast enough. I'm playing on an NA server - Faerie - and am located in the midwest - Cleveland, Ohio.

You are both right to a point. Tanks do have content where they should dodge attacks. But on Primals at least, it's pretty limited. HM Ifrit is Outside Plumes only pretty much. On Garuda it's Slipstream and on Titan there is nothing, so I do get the point
