I think we are progressing as we should, maybe a little bit behind to what we should, but this lag is not suitable for proper raiding, and is probably the main reason people and statics broke up on a3, cause u think u are swapping the debuff, but u are in 1 place on your screen, when the other person sees u where u were 2-3 second ago. If we had Japanese or American statics, they would've cleared A4 a while ago and if we didn't have 100+ms we would've done the same.

I agree a lot with this! Also people will be pulling a lot better dps when the lag is negated! There are many times when I press my skills and they just dont go off.
This mainly happens with pots and off gcd skills.

100ms ping isn't a life ending latency compared to ~25 ish. It is not going to magically fix everyone's dps. Digititus "not passing" (because you are slow) and having hallowed ground go on CD while you die on the cast animation will still happen. The reality is... it is a skill issue.

The ms is not 100 its closer to 200-225 for most people :/

I dunno how off I am when i say around 50% of the statics have had to look for replacements for their groups. And when taking into account the average skill level of Phoenix, finding someone who can contribute aint that easy.

I wouldnt even play anymore if it werent out of obligation for my static. We had to go trough pugging A1S&A2S kills because tanks had terrible work schedules. After that we had to replace a bad BLM, which took time and we got a new SCH as a replacement so our old SCH changed to SMN. Then our new SCH quit for 2-3 weeks. Shit like this doesnt really motivate you to keep banging your head into a wall called A3S.

And lets not even talk about sometimes unbearable latency, bosses that are 99% the same as in Alex NM but just more unforgiving, bland story etc etc..

I shall be making my return to phoenix once the transfers are back up again.
