Anyone else having horrible lag with Battleping in instances since patch?

Dungeon servers specifically seem to be having goddamn awful hiccups that make reacting to mechanics nigh-impossible. Not affecting coil or primals.

[Moridam]

weirdly, coil has been completely problem-free for me since the patch. the last month or two in 2.1, turn 5 was a horrendous lagfest for me no matter what time of the week we went in.

Random complaint / stupidity. Been looking for 30 minutes and cannot fucking find this.

You just saved my life.

The problem I have is this. Its not the low drop rates its not how boring it is. We all have done this.

The really bad part is there is no lock out . now I know this will piss people off but let's say they locked you out to one a day. It can take 6 hours and then well your done. But how it is now is , you get that one after 6 hours and you then say on to the next one! And that is bad you want to bang out the wep as fast as you can.

Its like namis in 11 it sucked but you only did it twice a week.

As previous posts stated, dungeons and the server for guildhest would crap out on me occasionally. As PLD, starting my combo I would usually end up not getting the proc (and I'm 100% sure it wasn't a miss) similar to fighting odin pre 2.1 or something. Sucks.

[Icarian]

I'm at 11/12 Atmas and this motherfucker will not drop, I've been doing this shit for two days already, just drop and let me go on D:!

I like it because it means I know when roars are by music.

The glamour shit is so fucking needlessly complicated....

Why are there 5 grades when they're all made from the same materials? Even the fucking synths are all the same level.

Should have been, at most, one item. Fucking "Glamour Prism" turns shit into other shit, bought from NPC, nice gil sink, done. Not fucking 35 different items that all do the same shit.

No wonder it was delayed a whole goddamn patch, they had to figure out a way to cock it up just right.

Also, it's fucking hilariously sad that the galmour system they made doesn't allow you to use the Odin armor, a piece bought only for the purpose of looking cool and which I'm sure a fuckton of people bought looking forward to the glamour system. Maximum trolling, nicely done SE.

[Lokus]

Just goes to show what SE is capable of when they don't copy systems from other games and come up with their own. Glamour Prisms are fucking horribly implemented all because they wanted to give crafters something to do and supposedly because the PS3 couldn't handle a vanity tab/page due to memory limitations.

The fact there are white knights for this shit is mind boggling. Case in point:

I like the idea simply because it provides an excellent failsafe to prevent the prism market from crashing.

If a piece of gear becomes popular so does it's prism. Let's say LW3 for example. People craft tons of LW3 prisms to get in on the profit and you end up with a surplus. Instead of crashing the entire LW market, you've only crashed the LW3 market. By the time the next market crashed LW3 will start to recover slowly.

Seriously fucking fed up of this Atma bullshit.

I am now at ~350 FATEs total across 2 days and have 3 Atmas. A FC friend who has done 118 has 6.

A different FC friend has gone from 2 > 6 in ~90 mins today, I have gone from 2 > 3 in the same timeframe. It's taken me 10 hours to get those 3 Atmas today (plus 7 hours yesterday for 0).

This shit better start evening itself out over the course of the 12....

Fucking seriously. I spent 8 hours getting Atma of the Scales and my friend proceeded to get Scales in <10 minutes, then proceed to get another 7 before I finally obtained it. I normally don't mind RNG, but this shit is just so random. I'd much rather a large, progressive grind. I don't care if it takes me 3 days of work, as long as it takes everyone 3 days of work.

[Jem]

Pretty much. Make it 50-100 FATEs per zone or that you have to Gold every FATE in the zone to get the Atma. Having it so you can do 100+ FATEs in a zone with no progress is just cruel.

This is like FFXI VW style droprates.

Amazing.

Pretty minor but today I discovered that the map remembers how zoomed out you were at logout. So why the hell does it reset the zoom of my character everytime I login D: Surely it can remember that!

[Seravi Edalborez]

There's a setting for that.
