I'm in a bit of a rut

I checked your equipment and that's not an equipment issue. You still have 2 wrong items on you: Your Earrings and you wrist.
Wrist: Peridot Bracelet / Aquamarine Bracelet
Ear: Peridot Earrings / Aquamarine Earrings
You can buy those from the market board, just pick the cheaper one, it doesn't really matter.

I'll definitely get on these thank you.

Red Circle spam: If you stand in there, it's your fault.

I know better then to stand in the aoes :3 but even when do run out of them, or anyone else even we always seem to get hit. I don't know if its just the lag, or if it was just a buggy mechanic, like when I faced Titan and i could be on the other side of the arena and get pushed off.

DPS can afford to lag as if one dies the party probably won't wipe.

I've thought of this, so the past couple of days I've been playing around with all of the classes, which I may end up doing.

Level arcanist to 34 and/or blackmage to 26. There are two skills that "could" help with your lag issues. One would be an eye for an eye (arcanist) and swiftcast (thaumaturge) An eye for an eye is a skill where when placed on a party member it has a 20% chance to debuff the enemy. The debuff lasts for 20 seconds and reduces damage done by 10%. The other would be swiftcast. A must have spell. Especially for raising or getting a quick medica off. These will help with your class and you will need them in future end game content.

My friend was just telling me about these skills, so I started leveling my them and acranist more to get them.hopefully they can help me out a bit. ^^

You might enjoy playing as a Scholar. With a Scholar you can at least have a fairy who can cure for you during your lag issues. Consider that an option as well. On the plus side, you also can have access of switching to summoner in the instance you rather dps. Switching between the two jobs can also be fun and a good way to level a healing class with having multiple ways of doing so.

This I may try before going after other classes(though I did enjoy monk lol) since I'll be able to still be healy and have an option for DPS, though I'm still a little unfamiliar with the ways that Scholars work. Guess I need to do some research :3
