    Displacement...

    Can we do something about Displacement? I just hate the fact that it's a mile repelling shot. Can the distance be fixed? I feel like it's way too much most of the time, especially on raids where touching the edge one shots you. And I can see the comments pouring in saying "git gud" and all that, and I am. It's not that it's impossible, it's just a pain to do. In O11 during Level Checker, 1 Displacement and you're automatically dead. And I feel that with a job that lacks DoTs, that inability to use Displacement during that whole phase is a pretty immense dps loss.

    I don't think the skill needs to be adjusted, because of 1 instance, maybe 2, but i don't think you will loose to much damage to make you missing the DPS check.

    Ps4 players have a little harder time with latency and whatnot that makes the abilities clip into each other even with the 2.5 recast time. Displacement's exaggeratedly long repel ends at almost the same time your GCD is up. Add latency to that, you'll start casting later than after you actually land. I don't know, the distance, or a faster animation if losing damage isn't a problem (I consider it a problem because it's an ability meant to be weaved since it does deal damage, 130 potency is a lot for it not to be used during a whole minute)

    And why should I? If the game is out for the ps4 as well, they have to take us into account.

    The solution to your problem is to not use the skill when you know it's not safe. It's really that simple!

    I could do with it being shorter--15y is kind of a ridiculous distance tbh. It would also be nice if it was as fast as CaC to prevent clipping and make it a more feasible gap opener.

    They removed potency from repelling shot, so it would not be surprise if they do the same for displacement during 5.0

    Remove potency from displacement, put it on Corps a Corps.


    I dont want to lose potency and be scared of flipping off the edge.

    Yeah, same. Every time there's a boss with an open edge, I fear nervous about using Displacement. And 9/10 times, my fears are validated when I wind up misclicking at the wrong time and sail over the edge.
