    I'm sad:(

    I live in Australia and play on a Japanese server as they're nearest to me. My internet connection speed good and I've never had a problem with online games even when I played WoW on an American based server.

    Final Fantasy on the other hand makes me feel very embarrassed and stupid in dungeons.

    I'll give the last boss in stone vigil as the example. He casts his AOE as a circle around me. I'm on the other side of the room when he finishes the cast and it hits me. Every time. I run the instant it appears. I had the same problem with Titan's line AOE, was miles out of it, got pushed off the edge.

    This means effectively that I can struggle through the story dungeons but will never be able to play any endgame as I'd be a handicap to the party. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to mitigate this? I realise the answer is probably no but there must be Australians that make it to end game, do you get this terrible latency issue?

    I think a lot of people in AUS who play on NA use battleping or WTFAST to fix there lag issue. Sadly that would mean you would have pay for something else top of your FFXIV payments.

    I have a similar issue. I play on PS3, live on an island north of Australia, and my server is US, so I have all these things piled up against me, which means Titan EX superplumes hit me from across the arena....oh well.

    Had that same issue for ages. No matter how fast I reacted, I got hit by those AoEs 95% of the time. Live in Norway (Northern part of Europe for those that don't know) and play on US server, not that that matters since EU servers are the same place. Changed from PS3 to PS4 and all the lag is pretty much non-existant. So if you have the chance to try on PS4 (if you're on PS3, that is), you should.

    I just had a look at battleping and they don't appear to have a JP server. Which server do you use?

    edit ah looks like it's pc only, seems on PS4 I'm stuck with it

    Depends on how familiar you are with Networking and Computers. You can set up your computer to connect to a VPN server and let your PS4 be routed through your pc, but this is rather advanced to setup if you don't have the knowledge.

    Battleping is basically required to play this game if you don't live where the servers are located.
