Titan Extreme is NOT Fun

[ArtEmisPalmecia]

How hard is it for you to dodge a freaking puddle with sprint?

The only people who have a right to complain about plumes are melee. And honestly...if you can't figure out when puddles are going to pop in a scripted rotation, you probably shouldn't be doing an extreme fight.

Are you dense, or have selective reading? It doesn't matter if it scripted and you follow the script to a fine point. If the server doesn't update your position due to the numerous potential network issues, or current server stress and delay in processing, it is irregardless if you predicted/dodge the plume or not. The fight is too heavily tuned based on a perfect connection. Need I repeat this again, and maybe it will sink into that thick skull of yours? "This thread probably wouldn't exist if SE actually let the client determine who was in the hit box, and not the server."

I've been saying this for ages. Action MMOs like TERA allow for client-side hit detection in order to pull off fast-paced dodge-heavy combat with weaker servers and poor connections. SE clearly wants XIV to be largely built around leaning the "dance," but when that's so latency-dependent, the hit detection cannot really be server-side.

I could do any amount of content in that game with a >200ms ping, and yet I eat Landslides and Weights that I'm not even near with lower ping than that in XIV...

yep i tanked in Tera bosses that makes titan extreme a carebear tossing kisses around, in FFXIV i get out of aoes still get hit from time to time.....its frustrating eating a landslide that u avoided in your screen yet the game think u didnt, im sure my FC think im a baddie

i dont mind wiping for hours learning encounters ect, but titan is a frustrating exp (hell i remember Coil T5 before 2.1....i was eating random divebombs , good thing now with 0.1 i can avoid 99% of them )

i only have issues in FFXIV (never had issues in other mmorpgs eq2,wow, rift to name a few....) im from EU , and not gonna pay more in order to get less ping , put servers on EU or stop putting content that u need <100 ping
