Chatlog readings for damage sources outside 30'

[Kristal]

I see it as better than before. We got a reason, not just the word balance or "we can not do it due to technical problems it would cause." I am guessing it is probably that by increasing the range the game would have to register all things at that range which can create alot more work for the game to do. Also if it constantly monitors that range for activity to give information for in the chatlog then it would slow it even more thanks to it constantly trying to see what might be going on. Not sure if that makes any sense but really this isn't bad, the are getting better at listening and telling us the problems I think.

But it has to register all things anyway, since we're still getting hit with Meteor without seeing it. I think the problem lies with aoe that hit anyone in a 40' range, not just those that have claim. In that case, the lag would go up. You'd also be dead, since you never saw it coming.
