    lag is just an excuse. my whole ls is in NA and we never lose. just cause it looks like you cleared cracks doesn't mean you did. if you are off them whiten the second they pop you'll be good.

    edit: lag can happen sometimes, ive been clear of cracks before other players and still got hit. its pretty rare though. if its unplayable for you then i say its user error.

    Exactly, watch what he does and you will know before hand what ability he will do, there are obvious tells.
    If you see he is gonna spawn cracks, don't cast, WS, ect... Just chill and get ready to run.

    people think its the actual explosion you gotta clear, its the cracks the second they pop. Also when running back you can run back to your spot before the cracks have fully cleared the field. good for cnj to know so they can get back to healing asap.(timing on this takes some practice though)

    Whats this? I can run back onto the crack and have the explosions not damage me because the server still thinks I'm outside of the explosions? HOW IS THIS NOT LAG.

    like i said it takes practice, dont expect to run right into the explosion and not get killed. when you see the explosion happen give it about 1 second and you can run in normally. the cracks will still be there but you can run on them.

    It takes practice abusing the lag? Wow. Did you even read my post?
    How HIGH do you even have to be... We are talking about the lag issues on Ifrit, your solution is to 'move quicker and use the lag to your advantage hurr'

    Please, for the love of God SE, implement an intelligence test for eligibility to post on these forums. I don't know what will give me an anurism first, pure rage, or idiotic comments like this.

    your the one crying about not being able to beat ifrit not me, i thought most members or Seriphm would have a little more self control then to start bashing someone on the forums for trying to help.

    He isn't saying it doesn't exist and, from what I can see, is trying to give you options to work within a broken system since there is no current solution outside of this. Being snarky doesn't help you. In reality, you are guilty of what you just accused him of. By that measure, according to your belief, you yourself should no longer be allowed to post here.

    I can't think of a more idiotic example of lunacy then what you just did.

    Don't use abilities after the swipe and adjust your chat log to see Enemy TP moves and pt chat only. It's always someone trying to squeeze in another TP combo or spell after the swipe then comes the " wtf lag"

    If you're animation locked when it starts it will hit you, wether it looks like youre on it or not. Since he gives a 3 sec warning before every TP, it's hardly a serious issue. Just takes a little getting used to

    Yeah I have done it, it is tricky and takes practice so generally I dont even try to mess with it. Either way it is still a lag based issue.

    I think folks are dismissing the fact that the OP stated they always have lag but over come it and the issue they are speaking of was just last night. So I wouldn't pass it onto inexperience so quickly.

    and LoL at the guy claiming the fight was designed to include a delay. SE didn't even know what the delay everyone was referring to was until many posts where made about it, and that's when they created a thread asking for everyone's ISP info that experienced it to try and come up with a fix.

    I'll be one of the first to call someone out on skill but we all know that isn't always the case
