"Hidden" GCDs need to GO...

[Jijifli]

So your stance is that you should be able to pop every single oGCD in your arsenal immediately, between 2 GCDs, so long as you push the buttons quickly enough?


I'm not defending anything. I'm trying to explain to you how the game operates, how it is intended to operate, and you're disagreeing with it. Which is fine.

The way it is right now, latencies that Yoshi P claims "Still makes the game playable" make it so double weaving can make some players clip their GCD, lowering dps. Even at 100ish ping my double weave can sometimes clip, and that's not fun.

And it's not like their animations are amazing. Then again I'm a lalafell and some of our buffs actually have clip issues (MONK WHY)

Being an NA player on an EU server, I occasionally have issues like this too (oddly worse on NA servers), but I learn to adapt whenever it pops up.

In fact, that's something the OP should try. Instead of whining about how an obstacle is making things too hard for them, maybe learn to adapt and work around it. Last I checked, I'm pretty sure that was something good gamers do.

East coast DRG here, so I know this pain all too well. He's not wrong, of course - the game is still very much playable - you're just losing a couple GCDs of damage over the course of an extended fight. But it hurts. Muh deeps!

As a DRG, I also know this pain:

Q. Can you do something about the jump animation lock for Dragoons?
A. The Dragoon's DPS balance adjustments are made with that animation lock in calculation, so we would have to reduce Dragoon's DPS if we get rid of it.

Try playing ninja, sometimes the mudra doesn't work and it's really annoying. I can't tell you how many time I'll press a mudra button and it'll do nothing then you'll press it again only to have it count as double and mess up and it always comes at the worst time. Just today I did a full mudra combo and all the icons went through and yet it gives you the bunny because it either lagged or had some issue.
