IS THIS A JOKE?! NOTHING was done to fix the netcode.

I'm on the same server, I have ZERO problems unless something is going on with my connection. Online gaming isn't about up speed or downspeed, it's about Latency, which you sir... Seem to have a truckload of.

My latency is anywhere from 130-160 ms to the FFXIV server. Notice how the fight is incredibly smooth EXCEPT for dodging the aoes? There's no visual lag or connection until the moment when I go to dodge something.
