Noticeable lag reduction on instances

As someone who plays from South America, I gotta say I'm really happy you delivered on this front. I tried Ultima HM last night, and even though I didn't beat it everything felt so much responsive and quicker than usual. The same kind of plumes that killed me numerous times on Titan HM when I thought I was outside suddenly were easy to dodge and I never got hit by something I avoided. For once I could play a high level instance without being afraid of looking like a noob in front of everyone, and it was the most fun I've had with the game since it launched. Thank you SE.

I noticed on turn 2 I was able to avoid ADS piercing laser attack - somethong I always get hit by! So yeah happy with that \o/

Well, nice to see you there! I wonder exacly from where =P

On topic: Yes, I tried Ultima last night, it was frigging amazing! I loved it haha, Dodging was so easy, not once I got hit by anything I actually dodged (failed to dodge like twice, and those were the only two times I got hit).

Yes yes yes! It's great, feeling like a noob or being afraid of being seen like one because of lag was bad :( I can't wait to try more fun encounters and see how well this works.

It certainly is nice to be able to dodge Repelling Cannons for once without having to be on the opposite side of the room.

Glad to see this topic. I noticed significant improvement on the instance latency. I never really had trouble dodging things in the past. But I still had the thing where you ran out of the danger and still got hit. I simply learned to cope with it.

However, now I can easily dodge everything. I dodged all of ultima's weapon attacks with much ease. Moments where I just barely ran out of the circle where I thought "Shit, I'm still going to eat this". Yet it actually registered me dodging it.

I have to admit that this made for a very pleasant gaming experience.

I also noticed a significant difference as well. I am grateful they listen to their community (maybe not on housing prices but alot of it)

It's nice to be reading a topic like this. I'm actually looking forward to facing Titan HM once more for my next relic to see how much of an improvement there is.

Meanwhile people are claiming lag issues on Ultima and Garuda Extreme..no surprises there lol. I see no difference honestly since I never really had network lag or graphical lag since upgrading my PC.
