Standing out of the red, and still getting hit

[ElunaMay]

This is currently my only issue with the game, everything else is flawless however, it is a MASSIVE issue.

It appears to be a number of things combined that are making it so bad

- Your position is only checked by the server 3 times a second, so essentially everyone is playing with 333ms, you only have to look around towns to see players rubber banding around everywhere.

- Enemy animations have to be in sync with the cast bar completing, currently an enemy starts its animation once the cast is complete meaning that by the time the enemy physically hits you with its attack you are quite often well clear of the animation

- It's pathetic that the cast bar is what defines if you get hit by an AOE attack or not, you're making people play the UI and not the beautiful game you've put in front of them

Currently I'm just levelling and enjoying the game, however by the time end game comes round, I cannot see myself PvPing and raiding with such a broken system.

If you are in the red when the spell is CASTED even if you move out you will be hit... SE has not mastered that yet in their programming lol.

If you move out of the area use a skill asap and you location info on the server ill update and register you out of the area. Sucks that you have to do this sometimes but better than dying.

This actually works, I've found myself getting hit by stuff all the time and realized that if you move out of the circle, stand still and try to use a skill (in my case Physick) it will almost always be interrupted but you'll never get hit by the circles, cones, or straight lines. So ya it's like an invisible lag you don't notice. . .it really needs to be handled. . .but on the mean time it's best to just skill cancel as you move out.

I've also noticed JP players doing this, like a PLD jumping to the side and using a skill rq then moving back.
