Latency issue in this game...

[Ri_ri]

You seem awfully fond of WoW, why are you playing FFXIV?

Because I like Final Fantasy. Doesn't means I'll disregard what WoW does right... it didn't have 12m subscribers for nothing!

This is bad advice. We should not be altering our gameplay to make up for terrible latency/game design. I /facepalm every time I see someone say that you need to memorize the fights and start moving BEFORE the AOE goes off. We shouldn't even need the red circles on the ground. As the monster raises his hammer way up in the air and emotes IT'S HAMMER TIME you know that you need to get away before the hammer hits the ground. In this stupid version of said events he would raise his hammer up and a circle would appear on the ground. I have to move out of the circle asap THEN he starts his swing and the hammer comes down. I could have moved out of the circle and then back into the aoe area when the hammer hits and yet I take no damage. What kind of idiot came up with this nonsense? Seriously. It's some of the worst game design I've ever seen.

I agree with you but sadly, for now, it's either this or don't complete content at all.

I've tolerated Titan HM and Ultima but now I'm faced with Titan EM... I either put up with all that bs and frustration again, memorize the whole fight and still run the risk of getting screwed by spikes, buy a win or get stuck without seeing my beloved Ifrit in his extreme glory... I'm getting tired!

I really hope Leviathan won't be like this.
