Titan Extreme Ping check rather than EXP players check

Ultima Weapon?

he is one of the most joke bosses i have seen

It is, but when people eat absolutely every ability they immediately jump to blaming lag.

I can't even try Titan Extreme! Duty Finder waiting 3 hours so far. :/

Titan EM's landslide is in no way harder to dodge than HM, you're just more likely have to move more often. If you can dodge HM you can dodge EM.

i hope PS3 30 FPS is not the reason

[razzgrizz3]

all these encounters are designed with one shot mechanics.
its just poor design on their part

Think the point is......With Titan Hard it was:

"0.3 sec makes it impossible!"

With Titan Extreme, now it's:

"0.1 sec makes it impossible!"

With Ultima Hard it's:

"0.1 sec makes it impossible!"

Seriously..let's stop blaming lag now - I thought people said: "other MMOs calculate at 0.1 sec, so why doesn't XIV?" Now that it does there's still seemingly "lag issues" that make it hard/impossible to dodge..?

This is hilarious. Ya know what? In normal MMORPG you actually get the damage when you're hit by the ANIMATION.

The last patch should have helped dramatically with the dodging issue. It can't completely fix it as the problem itself is in the coding of the game (there should never, ever be an instance where you are out of an AOE and still get hit). Ping isn't the only factor in determining success. Folks in other threads that have used trace routes to pinpoint issues have noticed packet loss. So, that can also lead to getting hit when you were out.

At this point the core problem is not likely to be addressed further than reducing the delay between position updates. If you're still unable to dodge, then I would suggest either a tunneling service, or (if your experience is poor enough) finding a different MMO until the issue is for sure fixed (netcode redone) here... which again, isn't likely to happen.

I played un-tunneled and from Australia, you just need to practice so you react faster to each set of plumes. Landslide timing is very easy though, there's no excuse for getting hit by that.

If i am focused i never get hit by a plume.

I beat Titan/Ifrit extreme 2 days ago I didn't notice any lag on plumes/eruptions. Seemed more responsive even on regular hm titan now. Whatever they did on the servers worked.

[eagledorf]

In HM with the change in latency I went from eating 90% of the plumes to never eating a plume (well, ok, just once since the patch hit). I think that is a substantial difference unless I just had FF enlightenment! IMO the way the Titan fight works it is going to be to some degree a test of your connection.
