Titan HM Ground Based AoE (Am I just terribad?)

[Chahls]

Okay so I guess first off I should mention that I'm an EU player playing on Malboro which is an NA server.

During the last beta phase I was forced to create a character there due to EU servers being entirely full. A world transfer for free (afaik) has not become available yet (one-time?)


On the boss, on my screen, I'm out of the plume / aoe animation on the ground yet sometimes I still get hit.
I've noticed this happen in many dungeons from Amdapor, Wanderers and the Primal trials.

I react instantly to them, yet sometimes they still hit me. I couldn't react any faster if I wanted to, and I don't consider myself to be a bad player.

Am I being let down by latency issues here? I can't view my ping so I don't know how badly it's affecting me.


Has anyone else noticed that AOEs hit early regardless of being outside of the animation?

Edit:

Just seen this-

It's an example of what's happening to me.
I guess it's accepted by the community as something that is genuinely happening to people.


I guess I've answered my question myself.
