Sync damage output with animation (Optional)

Hypothetically speaking, should such a thing exist (likely created by a single dev in their free time), surely the humble indie company Square Enix can spare some resources and find a way to replicate it! Give them several years. They'll figure it out!

What?!

Good sir,

A company with such high morals as SE would never implement such things in one of its best-running live-service games as those pesky criminals do.

Nothing good comes out of doing such unruly things.

Nothing good comes out of doing such unruly things.

Rather, the case there is that when things do get unruly (with the timing of network packets), nothing good is going to come out it. I am aware of the trick being alluded to here, it was also listed among the complaints of people cheating for advantage in PvP. It should not be done, and not just because of ToS. It does not solve a problem of the net code, it just moves the place where things going wrong becomes noticeable, and the client side of this game does not have proper rollback facilities for when something does.
