None of the AAA MMO's I have played in the last 15 years had this issue, it's archaic and feels completely out of place in a modern game.

No MMOs period have. They doesn't have to be AAA. I tried searching for the issue just to see, because I couldn't recall it happening ever. No search results using Rift, Tera, Vindictus, Aion, Eden Eternal, and so on. I've even offered to change my wording in the OP and stop touting that as fact if someone can provide me with evidence otherwise (a video or something), because if it was anywhere near a problem then it would be like it is for this game, and videos would be everywhere, as well as multiple threads.

I came to FFXIV from Rift, having played it from release (FFXI vet and tried XIV 1.0 beta/launch as well), and the combat there was much more fluid and coherent than it is here.

Yup! I know the problem existed in FFXI, but it was far less noticeable because the game seemed to be focused around it.

FF11 was along the lines of EQ1 where the game is more about resource management as opposed to move around really fast or you die, so while lag is always the same, it's not as crippling. It probably doesn't help that FF14 strived to be the MMORPG that puts the most weight on dodging an AE in a split second compared to any other MMORPG out there.

Can we all move over to the below linked thread? The OP provides examples and very detailed information. Plus it has over 150 pages! I'd really like to see this issue fixed, but we need to be an organized community on this.

I actually created this thread after that thread was closed and reopened by mods citing it as an end game discussion thread. Many, many people were also mistaking it for a QQ about Titan thread. I did link to that thread in the OP, and still post in it though.

Oh, I'm not saying no MMO has issues. However no MMO ever has had the issue where you get hit by AOEs when you're out. Not a single one. Every MMO gets lag and server crashes at launch though, and I have never once complained about the server crashes, or latency itself. However, I should not be getting hit by AOEs I was out of, period.
