I keep avoiding Aoe(s) from Boss(es) but still get hit.

[Authority]

I have got fiber and my ping is 15ms.

This has happened to me multiple times in different occasions in different times and days where I was out of sight aka not inside the shape of the enemy's Aoe but I still get damage and/or dots on me.

Basically I am talking about the last second escape and somehow this issue pinpoints to me as there is this "lag-input" from the game and from my side I need to be 1 second faster so that lag input does not effect me. What that means is that I will not be able to avoid anything the last second due to that.

Anyone else has noticed this?

Try using a GPN (Gamers Private Network)

It's a common issue that has been around since beta, they have fixed it to a better state, but in order to avoid the dmg of a monster AoE attack you have to be out of the AoE zone before the casting bar reaches 50%, I remember reading something like that around here but in order to be sure don't wait to the last second before moving away from the boss AoE zone and you shouldn't have any problems.

I have DSL at 40mbs and I have had zero problems with dodging AE's since launch (Tank/DPS/Healer).
The exception is when the server itself has hiccups every once in a great while.

In this game you cannot dodge reactively, you have to predict when to dodge and start moving before it starts casting. The outcome of a terrible design choice :P

Fortunately most notorious battles are scripted so once you learn or get a hint of the rotation you can act before stuff happens.

I hate to be this way, Screen shot your ping to the sever you are logged into. I have a hard time believing your having lag at 15ms when I don't have a problem
at my avg ping of 150ms. so I'm gonna call BS or you have a very slow graphics card or processor and stuff is showing up on your screen late. At work I have that
problem because my work rig isn't made for gaming and I have a 10ms ping at work but the computer can't handle the game very well. So stuff doesn't show up on time.
my home computer that isn't top of the line as far as graphic but has more then enough to power this game doesn't have problems doing so over a 125ms cellular connection.

still happens to me with Titan Hm and other instances were i am clearly out of an aoe.
Heck yesterday i swear someone in Syrcus Tower moved at same time as me, i got hit and they did not
This does not happen frequent, just at times

Unless your both sitting in the datacenter. It appears to you that you both moved at the sametime. I can assure you that anybody
that seems to be in sync with you is actually moving before you are. As a tank I get to be stationery for long parts of fights. I can tell
who's going to make it out based on their movements before the aoe's pop on the screen.

This is a blatant lie, though. To this day, I have not encountered a single boss that required me to dodge pre-emptively.

The only time I had to predict the AoEs was when I was playing on a Japanese server from US. Now that I am on a US server I can usually wait a second or two after the AoE shows up and still make it out. Running 10MBPS DSL. Average ping to server is around 200ms.
