Rotations depending on ping

[Balmung_Griffin]

Honestly double weaving is nice, but will it hurt you that much if your ping is bad and you can only single weave?

Not as bad as you might think.

Yes, it is.
Firstly because it shouldn't be this way, Secondly, this adds up during the course of a fight, making some content harder than it's supposed to be.
As a DRG, regular ping makes me lose 2 GCD + 1 OGCD from buff windows, not even accounting the terrible drift that comes with this issue.

I saw a whole other thread of people with actual data and charts and they will still be like "it's only the players fault" :/

Honestly I would say it exists because of a lack of perspective from the devs. They don't have to experience it, so they don't understand how bad it feels to play.

Why is that a thing..?

If your ping is anything above 10 you will clip your GCD when double weaving on Monk.
Most fast jobs will clip in double weaving when its 50+...
When you are playing 3 digits, you will not have a good time on any job.

Is SqEx even aware of this?
When will this be adressed or at least acknowledged?

On DRG right now wit DT this is the worse you double weave on one of the GCDs in your hyper short 20sec burst you are fucked sometime even the animation is canceled midway it suck

During a perfect rotation the fights align incredibely well with your downtime tools, especially on melees. GCD clipping makes your whole rotation drift, missalign and forces you into further clipping down the road.
Optimization aside, it's absolutely unsatisfying to play if you have any kind of gamesense.
You will just go down into despair knowing this is pretty much the only big MMO in the world with that issue and how easy it actually is to fix...

I've got high ping but it's good thing I'm too casual to know or care what any of that means

Support this thread if you want something to be done about this.

In theory, they already have the information thanks to forum user Nekkowe but there's been no news whatsoever on the matter and AFAIK no content creator or interviewer has asked Yoshi-P about it again to confirm where they are at.

Never forget the wise and intelligent words of Yoshida himself during the california move.

[MisterNublet]

It is simple.

JP has good ping, so the issue isn't a concern or a priority.
