    EDIT: That video isn't me, nor is it made by me. It's just an example of this awful mechanic.

    Is incredibly tiresome. If you're not going to do the job right and fix the awful latency on enemy AoE attacks, reduce the penalty for getting hit by them. Also note that I'm playing from Canada. This isn't just an issue for people playing in countries far away from the data centre, this is a problem that exists no matter where you are.
    This is a known issue as it is in the accepted bugs forum:

    http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...ects-everybody)

    I would assume they are working on it then.

    The biggest problem I see is that your position is pinged only 3 times a second. That means everyone has a 333ms lag plus whatever lag you have from the server and they are not accounting properly for it. So I have a 50-60ms lag to the server, so in essence I have about a .4 second lag time after moving out of the red circle. That is almost a half second lol. I cant imagine the people that have like 80-150+ms lags to the server.

    This was pointed out to them months and months ago in beta and clearly was not addressed. I believe the accepted bug forum only means they're acknowledging that you filled out the form right, not that anything has been investigated or is going to be done about it. I don't have a huge amount of hope for a quick resolution on this.

    Not really, you can experience it in the open world, there just aren't enough one shot abilities on a short timer outside of the duty finder for most people to care. There is a nice gif around of it happening on a goblin aoe.
