So Mr/Miss BG LS member, like how slow and static are these "new" fights? Even if they are a stepback in game style compared to the old good Ifrit?

You say about how ifrit was exciting, and about the good old ifrit but then you go on to say about how it was marred with problems with server lag, you answered your own question about why they went back to pre-ifrit.

SE need to test the 2.0 server client before they use it, the problem isnt only with the physical servers, the server side software will be to blame as well, so the problems with ifrit cannot be solved until 2.0.

Your thread makes no sense because you state a problem and then state the answer to said problem within a few posts.

I never said that Ifrit was exciting lol ... I simply stated that it was a good start, but afflicted by the problems that we all know... I'd expected something like him, but better designed to those new fight... Not an huge stepback by making tank&spank boss... Those were good in XI 5,6,7..10 years ago.. But not in 2012. Even batraal (yeah before ifrit) was more dynamic.. at least you had to turn off lamps, and the tank had to move him away...

The problems with Ifrit arent because its badly designed, its the problems with the servers, and latency.

Thats why you see people powesliding because on thier screens they are well clear of the eruption, but the server thinks they are ontop of it so they die, then the server realises they had moved, thus making thier body powerslide across the arena, with the current servers they CANNOT add fights like Ifrit or we will have these problems, the only way they can fix it is making the window to move about 10 secs, then come 2.0 the fights will be super easy.
