So, yesterday, I've found myself a group. We all were well geared and quite experienced. We've been trying to kill this guy for 7 or 8 hours still, we didn't make it. My personal number of attempts is like 100+. I can do it through pre-heart phase, because of constant moving. But after, it's impossible to move all the time. Yep, you can say that I don' know how to play this game. But this is first game in my 12years MMO histroy where I don't have any progress on boss after 100+ attempts. And it's not because I can't react or don't know what to do, but because of retard coding and 0,3ms server delay. I still have 10 or 11 free days. But I'm sick of it. Looks like I'm doing rage quit. Yep, I'm. Even if I kill titan, what's next? Coil? Waste my nerve there? No, thaks. I'm not going to resub, neither should you if you have same problems. This thread has like 65+ pages and still no response from SE. I'm out.
Fix the unacceptable delay when dodging AOEs. http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/threads/84124-Either-make-dodging-AoEs-possible-or-make-them-not-instant-kills
Fix it! http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/threads/89828-Sorry-SE-but-endgame-won-t-work-if-you-don-t-fix-something.
I really really hope that SE gives us something about this... and comes up with a fix...
I have the absolute best internet I can get in my area. I have a near cutting edge computer. I have 13 years of raiding experience in virtually every major MMO that has been released. I have always been applauded as a great player and have even been a top server/world first raider in the past. But I go into a fight like Titan, and I do what I am supposed to do. I know the pattern and move preemptively. On my screen I react immediately and avoid everything, but somehow even though to me it looks like I am doing the same things as everyone else, I die. I know I am a knowledgeable and good player that pays attention and plays well, but I feel like a failure here and it is beyond frustrating. I wanted this to be the MMO I played for years but if this isn't fixed I will not be able to do the things I like to do and will have no choice but to go elsewhere.
As well as knowing my capabilities and my hardware, I can only imagine how horrible this game plays for people on lesser connections and computers... I feel for them, I really do...

lets make this a 100 page thread ;p
will SE respond if this issue gets to the media outlets? or when the subs suddenly drops?

Endgame is completely broken and unplayable.
And they're still ignoring us... pretending there isn't a problem.
This game will follow TOR's trail and will be dead soon (for the western market, at least) if they don't fix this *fast*.
SE, you did an amazing job saving this game from the disaster of 1.0.
Now do it again, or it would have been for nothing.
I've never got surprisingly hit by an AOE. Maybe my net speed makes it easier for me to dodge I don't know. But either way whenever I have got hit by AOE I knew that I was slow or got tunnel vision. I think a lot of people are trying to use "lag" or "crappy servers" as an excuse to their bad skills. Everyone in my guild used to say the same thing, after 5 or so raid days focusing on just Titan now everyone can one shot the whole fight without anyone getting hit by any aoe. That makes me believe that it's really the players skill and maybe learning curve for new MMO'ers.
i shall quote this post below from a few pages back.
What most people defending the system and saying "You just have to know how to learn the patterns" don't realize is:
The poorly designed engine is going to gimp future content.
The thing is, I ENJOY Titan type fights. I just can't really enjoy them here because SE seems to be having trouble programming a game with responsiveness.
Why do you think Titan has a pattern? because SE knows the shortcomings of their coding. So all future content will be scripted and easily learned... requiring no actual skill beyond "Knowing what comes next"
Furthermore, SE is going to gimp stuff like Titan even more... thinking that will alleviate the problem... not realizing that we want Titan... just in a responsive, delay free environment.
Until that happens, Fights will be scripted and get gimped to facilitate shitty coding
