    I don't run into it much. But occasionally I've had my limit break interrupted which makes me suspicious. Most of the time I don't experience it though.

    I didn't experience it when I did ranked much and actually have experienced it more in casual play, but I stopped doing ranked because the queues dry up later in the season and I just don't really need to care about ranked.

    In other news, there is no technical debt from 1.0.
    "We don't have ... a technological issue that was carried over from 1.0, because ARR was meant to kind of discard what we had from 1.0 and rebuild it from the engine."

    You will probably see more of it than you would normally in other games because the only people that care about CC at this point care enough to cheat in it. Particularly ranked.

    There is no magical cheat that makes you win 1v5. Closest thing would be somekind of cheat that would use SAM LB for you perfectly but even that isn't enough to win every time because SAM LB's effectiveness is 100% on the enemies instead of the SAM

    Sounds like a alt to me
    I've been there lv5ing due to the fact that no one knows how to execute or time their CC for a kill
    Play a range and when that happens snipe them with drill or silence and see how they die in an instant
    or play WHM and face roll with imp if you imp someone and they don't die its your team that's bad unless its at like full hp then my friend might wanna practice
    but all in all if you don't succeed in killing one person which is practically impossible with how CC is balanced then ignore them and stick to the point but I know that's hard since you can't control your team but that's my TED talk bye now

    At least on Light I haven't seen any obvious cheating.

    There are few cases where 1v5 can happen but those are incredibly rare because it would need the 5 to be mostly clueless new players that stand together clumped up and not pushing their buttons properly. Such as GNB getting their full duration LB+AoE on team of squishys and maybe a hit or two to remaining players if they have enough hp to survive. DRG getting their buffed up AoEs into free LB. NIN getting a free full chain LB to already soft team. SAM getting LB to whole team tickling him during the counter. etc. etc.

    Unranked to Gold isn't too bad if you have some experience and don't meet other higher ranked players, if you get to freecast as BLM for example you can just dish out more than double the player damage compared to next player on low level games.

    It's the reason I stopped playing ranked. Seeing your limit break immediately stunned multiple times per match (even at bronze/silver/gold) is pretty angering.

    Seeing people blatantly speed hack and teleport.

    Veteran healers don't care if we need to heal, but right now we don't. We want interesting things to do during the downtime other than a 30s dot and a single filler spell that hasn't changed from lvl 4 to lvl 90.
    Dead DPS do no DPS. Raised DPS do 25/50% lower DPS. Do the mechanics and don't stand in bad stuff.
    Other games expect basic competence, FFXIV is pleasantly surprised by it. Other games have toxic elitism. FFXIV has toxic casualism.[/LIST]

    The reason I don't pvp anymore is because of too many cheaters. Last time did pvp I saw 3 inside a rock attacking and 1 under the ground attacking. Couldn't even target them to get a name to report them.

    I have taken out entire teams solo.
    I'm not cheating, they were just bad.

    The cheating is not as rampant as the being bad.
