An open letter to the creator of the primal battles.

It's the same for nearly all of our LS members. We all likely have different server response times, yet 90% of the time we always dodge these abilities. The leading cause of anyone getting hit with them is animation lock, and that's where ability timing comes in.

If I had to guess, I probably have the worst latency in my shell. When our tank calls time for nail pop, it takes me up to 3 seconds AFTER I see the tank call it to actually see Ifrit spawn them. Add the amount of time it takes between them typing it and hitting enter, to when their text is actually displayed on my screen, it's about 4 seconds.

Yet, I still dodge these abilities perfectly fine 90% of the time. The ONLY times I eat them is because of animation lock. Everyone has latency issues, and the severity of them vary from player to player. But I highly doubt it's enough to make you eat these abilities one after another consistently.

I agree with you because it is very doable and once you have done it then it becomes easy to repeat. But with that said we should still not have to deal with high latency issues.
