[Data Center USA] Ping increased. Report your changes here.

If se decides to have 2 data centers, 1 on east coast, and another on west coast, how is it going to work though? Which worlds will be in data center 1 or 2? It will still be the same problem in the end though? Like say Gilgamesh on east coast, and Balmung on west coast, what is going to happen to the people who live on the east and west but on those worlds?

Pretty much this.

The higher your ping the less time to react vs boss attacks, harder to chain skills properly and less action in a certain amount of compared to someone with a lower ms.

But point and click MMO's are more "high" ping friendly and sometimes devs tweak their net code to compensate this (Overwatch and his shooter advantage for example). Anyway, you can check this videos for a general idea: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=meDtc3QqQeI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qwaz_aAih-A

Note: BnS is an extreme example, FF14 is not that bad but still is noticeable.

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

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.

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.

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.

Probably, some runs of yours were uploaded on FFLogs by someone else in the party.

Yeah, found one result now.....of the dozens of runs we did. Point still stands: At that HORRIBLE DPS you can clear savage. Ping ain't bad, player is.

The delay on Bio and buffs like hallowed is intended and has absolutly nothinh to do with connection delay.

Proof: If it was due to 'lag', every def. CD would be affected and Swiftcast+Bio2 or Combust would have a application delay like Bio. Both not the case.

Just look at the application of slashing debuff of Stoms Eye compared to Dancing Edge.
SE applies debuff more than 1s later into the GCD than DE does, a nin weaving a oGCD after DE in will get the debuff effect, a WAR doing a oGCD like stun directly after SE will not.

That's intended game design.

Which american coast is closest to North Korea? Maybe they can handle this issue.

Enter on FFLogs and look for your character's name, then select on "Alexander: The Creator (Savage)" to change the scope to the one fight you are curious about.
