titan hard (hard for high latency)

Can't believe people must defend something that's actually really wrong.
If you run the game at 260 ms (like me), YES you will have some serious issues, aoe's are not there to get you oneshotted before you actually notice them.
When you play with something that can instant kill you, you need a fast response, don't have to predict what will happen and survive just for luck.

I have usually ~50ms in games.
On this game, there are situations (for unknown reasons) where I have like 4 seconds "desync".
Yea it's not latency, there is basically a desync between me and the server, it can't be latency because on Demon wall, I have to position myself ON the spell to evade to actually evade it, because of this "lag".

I don't know what's causing it but it's definitely increased difficulty ONLY FOR SOME PEOPLE. So, can you really keep saying that's it's an issue that players should solve and not devs? I feel something is wrong in your mind, if you think this.

People could pull off the hard fights in v1 too despite the high latency but just because some can doesn't mean they should have to, makes the fight that little bit harder. Had issues on Titan myself, most of the time I can avoid but 1/10 I will get hit and had one lag spike bad enough in Duty Finder that I was walking on the bottom for a good 2 seconds before dieing.

Titan does have a pattern to his attacks and if you know the attack is coming and move beforehand, you should be able to dodge it almost every single time. Sometimes you do get trapped though.

It's just annoying when people rag on you for getting hit by an aoe that is next to impossible to avoid because of lag. EU screwed again tbh.

impossible to win to whoever has ping more than 100. Titan cast aoe spell 2 sec and you lag 1 sec behind. 1 sec is not enough for u to run out of big aoe... SE should make an ingame ping check so I won't waste my time while I lag.

I don't really think you understand what those numbers mean. 100 ping means 100 milliseconds. There are 1000 milliseconds in a second. That means a message takes one tenth of a second to make a round trip from your computer to the world server and back. That means with 100 ping, you have 1.9 seconds to react, not 1. That means you are either lying, or bad.

The average human reaction time is ~.7-.8 ms so in fact they have about 1.2 seconds to respond.

The average human reaction time is a fraction of a millisecond? Like, 7 thousandths of a second? I think you mean .7-.8 [sec], not [ms].

Pedantic, I know :P

I noticed sometimes I get hit from Titan ground attack when I am at least 10 meters away from it.
