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

...and here I was thinking that I'm an absolute noob because I can't seem to avoid AOE during boss fights half of the time. I'm telling you... I AM CLEAR of it before the spell goes off, but it hits me. I've never had this problem before with other games... I'm not slow. I just have to keep asking myself what I'm doing wrong, but here's my answer. Thank you.

This also happand to me moust of the time and not only at Titan...after countles tries there to suced it with my Dragon i quit trieng its a waste of time!
I started now a WHM to fill the time hoping they will fix this...
...Cant pay to continue my subsciption if they dont fix this!This is not chalanging but its more like a luck based combat praying that u will not get hit moust of the time and not focusing on the actual fight.
Also this situation is for all fights where u get hit even if u are out of the way...
I realy hope they fix this like yesterday!

Head still in the sand is it?

There is no problem with the netcode in this game!

Seems to be the case still. Kind of pathetic.

Bump for justice! As an Oceanic player, this fact double penalizes me......as if the high ping is not enough.

Just today I started working on Titan for my relic weapon quest. Never before have I had such anger towards a video game. What's the point in having abilities that can be dodged if when you dodge them you still get hit? Every single time I got hit by an AoE, I was out of it for at least 2~3 seconds. This, coupled with my group giving me crap about it and talking about how I'm bad and it's my fault I'm getting hit has almost pushed me to refuse to pay for this game once my free time is up. This has to be addressed, we need more than a "Oh, yeah, we know about it.". This needs a "We're going to fix this issue by x date." type of response. This is ridiculous. There's no fun in a fight that's supposed to be skill based and have it turn out to be 100% luck on if the server wants you to succeed or fail.

This right here... you started today. stop thinking end game can be beaten in a day. I know Ifrit and garuda lead you all to believe this but it is not the case. We farmed him every night for 8 days until we got it down pat.. Hell I chucked a tanty at one point and /rage quit for a day. It's frustrating and hard and seems impossible but it is doable. I have a relic and 3 titan weapons to prove it. I live in Australia I play on High ping and I dodge everything.. I am not an amazing player. but my group worked together and learned the rotations.

Yes. You can adapt to the awful netcoding. This is not the point of the thread.

I was going to quote Eccho's senseless post and try to explain the issue (yet again) and how it doesn't apply to just Titan, but Titan with his myriad quick-cast AOEs is what really draws attention to the issue for a lot of people, but it's just easier to quote Reality Check and say he hit the nail on the head with his succinct reply.

The day someone starts working on something has nothing to do with things not properly working. It took me two~three attempts to understand the fight fully. I know the fight completely. Stop being ignorant to the fact that I'm not complaining about learning the fight or asking for it to be easy. I'm asking for the issue where people avoid aoes and still get hit to be fixed. No amount of knowing a fight will save anyone from that issue. I'm glad you don't have to deal with it but don't try to tell me that it is not the issue.
