Sorry SE, but endgame won't work if you don't fix something.

[Silverwalk]

i wonder if we have to post this in this in the JP forum to have a reply from SE.

I don't think it would help as it has already been replied to by Yoshi during the beta: see this post http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...=1#post1257955

I wouldn't hold your breath for any further fixes, although it would be wonderful if they improve it. We have to learn to work around the problem by moving before the cast begins. You can either do this by being constantly on the move or memorizing the attack patterns so that you know a second or so before the cast begins to start moving.

For people with over 200ms latency a good guideline is: if you can see the red circle and you are not already moving, you're dead.

Edit to the post below: Not sarcasm, realism

I do hope it gets improved sometime in the future.

I sincerely hope this is sarcasm... People should be refusing to pay a monthly premium for a game with hit detection this terrible, not just accepting it. Isn't massive server lag and delay one of the primary reasons why 1.0 did so terribly that it had to be shuttered?

Fingers crossed for a fix or, barring that, ARR shutdown followed by an apology and announcement of version 3.0, with combat mechanics and netcode that aren't abysmal.

Completely agree with OP.
Here is a good one also, just as reported in beta, still not fixed: http://i.imgur.com/T9XxskI.jpg

I wonder will they put this into "working as intended" along with all the "instants" not working instantly etc.

That whole log is just... wow... such BS. Makes me cringe at what Endgame could look like.

@Silverwalk
Yeah, Right workaround sure let's see:
1)run in circles and hope my summon does all the damage
2)run in circles and let my party die because i can't heal them, "sorry i have to stay alive".
3)become a scripted bot and watch tv.
Please I'm waiting for the invite to your party and see how this "workaround" actually "works".

Titan HM is easy if u can avoid all those AOEs, my group have killed it a few times already.

The point is that some people can't avoid all those AOEs due to lag/latency.... did you even read the thread?

[SKYeXile]

That's old news, and has already been addressed. The people still complaining about it now are for the large part just people who may not have the best reaction time, or may not have the best internet.

Im pretty sure all those issues still infact exist.

Yea iv done that fight where i on my client hear our offtank interrupting his attack, before it goes off, but then it still goes off...i dont understand how thats possible..for me to have the data the offtank interrupted then it would have had to have gone through the server first and it should have processed it. :/

Hey I agree with you, it sucks.

I actually didn't realize people were having this issue. Myself, my boyfriend, and his brother have always dodged just fine without any issues. I wonder where the lag and latency is coming in from? Nonetheless, in every party I've been in I've tried to help out others by letting them know they can use Sprint during the fight if they are having a lot of trouble dodging in general.
