The game is built around lag and snapshotting because of limitations of the engine and the netcode they use. There is not a single instance that has been released in dawntrail that suffers from any sort of unfair snapshotting or lag delays causing issues, unless you are actually playing at like 500 ping. In that case, you are going to have problems with lag in any game, not just XIV. That is what I mean by core mechanics. If you do not understand how these things work this late in the game, it is 100% a skill issue, and the developers will never change this because it is baked into the game and design. If you have a problem with it, leave. Seriously. No one will miss your whining.
