I definitely can't play nin or blm anymore unless I want to be trash at them, 100ms+ being playable is a total lie, only paladin is unaffected.
Shame they were they were the jobs I loved the most, but now swiftcast is not working properly and everything clip on nin, time to become a drg main.

I'm a Blm main since beta and my ping was never below 100ms, now gone up to almost 200, so let me tell you that Blm is still playable. It might take some time adjusting, especially if you were used to an extremely low ping, but it's certainly doable.
I know the swiftcast problem though, my advice on this is to just slightly move while pressing the swiftcast button and the skill you are trying to swiftcast. And no, you're not going to lose dps while doing that, as it's swiftcast, an instant cast. Helped me avoind the cliping most times.

Bullshit. We played with way higher ping than that at the server's old location. Learn to adapt, like we did.

Allow me to be rude, you're a potd main paladin what do you even know? 30ms, 100ms, 400ms makes no difference to you.

I'm a MCH, from Australia....I raided the first savage tier of Alex with 220ms (Sarganatas) - including AS3. Did it take more time for me to learn fights? No. I learnt the fights at the same time as my team. Even so much as using blank on a bomb in AS2 as part of our strat. My DPS was on par with the community - and at times above. In PVP I'd often get praise for my healing abilities, playing against players in the US/Canada. I consider myself an average player in Aus.

Let me doubt your numbers, only one parse uploaded and it's grey.
And mch is one of the least affected job by bad ping, only the opener is.

You don't play MCH at all, do you?

Because it's not "I", it's "we". Believe it or not, there are raiders that didn't live in NE Canada. You can discount me all you want. You can't discount everyone else who has dealt with ping upwards of 200 for years.

Not saying this is the case with the person you quoted but since we are being rude and jumping to conclusions here wth would you know about how how someone leveled or if the character you can see on their lodestone is even their main? It amazes me how many people think they can look at a persons lodestone and immediately know everything they have / haven't accomplished.

How about me then? I play pretty much everything, and I was on 100+ ping before. Its not unplayable. If you are going to call someone out on FFLogs, make sure your's are spectacular lol. I have monk in orange on several 24 mans, and I dont even main it, hell I still dont even know what the recommended opener is.

I'm not amazing and don't pretend to be.
And 24 mans? Is this a joke? I'm afk all the time and always #1-3, I see people in bis gear doing 900 dps there, 24mans don't mean anything.

Also curious....can you please point me where my 'numbers' are shown? I've never uploaded a parse....I'm on PS4...I be googlin' with no results

Looking at others 3.0-3.1 parses 1.5k seems to have been the standard.
You're not actually bad, but hardly optimal and your ping hurt you even if you refuse to admit it.

Being lazy and calling people out on parses, thats funny.

I'm not talking about 1-3 among people who are lazy. I'm talking about against people who actually try. But since you clearly dont, your ping increase shouldn't matter.
