Moving Normally(or even faster) while under the effects of heavy

[Ardelia_Lancaster]

New flash: top 100 does not equal good when the player base is awful. Also see my post above, one video taken by a single person doesn't prove anything. If you are a healer you make or break the game, a good healer can carry bad dps to a far greater extent than a good team can carry a garbage healer.

Watching the vid, its weird, but still not really conclusive. I see + stun, - stun and stun still being on the bar. Guy also looks like he is running on third world internet. If more videos show up showing the exact same thing sure. One video is hardly evidence when I have personally seen literally hundreds of matches that show otherwise. Also with SE's servers I would not be surprised if the most suspicious stun (the one where purify seems to come super late - Sakura isn't a scrub, he wouldn't waste it with one second left) is a result of lag on one or both ends of things. I think that you guys are just overly salty that there is someone who is really good and hasn't played a huge volume of matches. Perhaps you should gather some conclusive evidence before starting a witch hunt instead of a single video. But hey, what do I know. I have played with the guy since turn 1, so i'm clearly bias.

Explain how a healer on 3rd world internet has an 85% win rate. Your logic is about as bulletproof as tinfoil.

I am from rural New Zealand. The internet here almost never goes faster than 0.25mbps. Our internet is literally worse than many 3rd world countries, and my friends who have watched me play say that I have never ever done the things in the video that the video shows. Even when I had 380+ ping :| (I since got something to lessen the ping to around 160)
And I have never seen any other players with this behavior as seen as in the vid. (save for one other guy, and not nearly as bad as this.) :|

I was ranked 11th before I quit from classes imbalances and rampant cheating.

That is actually the opposite of what is true and if you actually had any real credible feast experience, you would know that too. Unfortunately, it's pretty obvious you're just shilling for your raiding buddy and doing a poor job of it.

Isn't it a little odd that everyone is complaining about one specific person, with really specific complaints that can be proven by simple observation? Isn't it a little odd that there is only one OTHER person on ANY datacenter that comes even close to that high of a win ratio (and they don't seem to be a healer)? I refuse to believe that anyone is just 'that good'. The nature of the solo queue is that you never know what you're going to get, and healers really can't carry that hard. Take it from me -- I've been in games where my dps partner really isn't pulling their weight and we end up losing (despite having an amazing healer that way outheals the healer on the other team) simply because we can't down people consistently. How that player was playing isn't revolutionary. They are playing like anyone else... except they're clearly not being stunned/weighted on a very mobile healer class that can continue to heal while moving.

You seem oddly focused on the one stun, when there's other parts in the video where he's shown running at full run speed while being heavied, without any measure being taken to remove it.
As for being salty, it's hard for me to be salty about a game mode that I don't participate in, nor do any of my friends. This thread merely showed up in the "new posts" section and caught my interest, more so after further looking into it and seeing someone with an 80%+ win rate, among a ranking where the average is around 60%.

Just because your friend is good at PvE, doesn't exclude the fact that it seems fishy that he's at a way higher than normal winrate, especially with video proof that shows him running at normal movement speed while heavied.

I don't know how anyone can even try to to defend the period from 2:50-3:15. They are literally running full speed while getting stunned without even stopping for a single moment. It's as if the stun didn't even register.

2:46 the stun goes out, immediately afterwards you see it drop off both the character and the bar. 3:06 the second stun goes out it has a 1 second duration and then falls off, looks like diminishing returns in effect. This same stun happens during the cast animation of what is clearly Aspected Benefic, an instant cast, have you never once been hit by a mechanic you were clearly out of visually or "slid" while the last little bit of a cast bar finishes? That's obviously latency.

We were discussing about his win rate earlier this week and he has made made it pretty clear that he avoids competition and only queues when he knows it will be minimal. I don't think I've ever seen him feasting during prime time. Make what you want out of that.

The video that Bananajuice Hades took has the original default video recording timestamp on it, which says "FINAL FANTASY XIV_20160512194454." 19:44:54 is 7:44 PM. This is primetime, when EVERYONE is playing. And you don't get to be top 100 without playing against the best players on the data center over and over.

The full duration heavy but still moving at full speed, and moving without stopping at all after 3 stuns should not happen, speaking from experience as someone with latency. I have chatting with my boyfriend, he says when the stun goes on me, I keep moving for a second/half a second, but I ALWAYS stop after that, and my heals cease.
