Sorry SE, but endgame won't work if you don't fix something.

In this link the guy moves rather late. You should be premoving on ripples and know when its coming and you will won't get hit.

Whether he moves late is not the point. The point is that he successfully moved out of the AoE before the cast ended, but still got hit. If you could show me how he was still standing inside the area when it went off, I'd say you were entirely right. But you can't, can you. All you can say is "yes, he was outside the area of effect before the effect went off, but still got hit." Basically, you're advocating working around a problem with the game. OK, fair enough. There's a lot to be said for that. Sort of a "If you can't work around the Titan issues, don't queue for Titan." Heck, I agree with you. On the other hand, w're advocating fixing the problem. I wonder why you appear to be against this? Surely you must be of the mind "work around this issue, but I agree they need to fix it"?

Personally, I've cancelled my sub. This is a great game, but I'm tired of having to anticipate everything before I even see the cast. I did this in my hardcore days of raiding, but now I work, have a family, and just play MMOs for fun. I'll stick with WoW HM raids and Challenge Modes until SqEx fixes this. Sad too, because WoW is really getting old and FFXIV:ARR has been a blast everywhere except endgame content.
