    gears can't help you at all since you'll be synced. It's even harder than Garuda HM and Ex nowadays.
    And this is why I hate all duty content. It relies far too much on alpha, dodge mechanics. I can practice this in OW leve quests. The best one is a level 20 in shroud. The AoE pipe shows, I run through the mob as soon as it does and am out. I still end up being bunted across the map. It's a latency based mechanic and no amount of practice will make people better.

    The only time practice cant overcome latency is when the targets cast time for what you're trying to dodge is less than 2 seconds.
    Endless practice is what got me my T5 clear.
    Endless practice is what let me clear Titan HM and EX with confidence.
    So an Australian who faces latency issues every day .. Practice can make anyone better so long as they learn from the experience.
