If you live in US, then I don't know... Shouldn't be any problem. I get the ping I expect from Sweden, 160 without WTFast(not "premium") and 140 with it. Which is to be expected.
There's problems with people in the US and problems with people that have only a stone's throw to the data center servers - That means it's an ISP problem because unlike other MMORPGs, XIV's data tend to get throttled by ISPs due to it appearing as torrent type P2P traffic. This is why with some other MMOs, WoW included, some people have issues updating the game but not necessarily playing it.
