A Healer's view of dungeon latency::

[Damifino]

Tank: Why aren't you healing me?
Healer: Cause you're standing right here healthy, oh WAIT! Where'd you go and why are you almost dead?

This is a simplification of course. While it's true, it's nowhere near the full extent of how bad it really is.

Cast a stoneskin on everyone..
/wait 40

Oh look, there it is!

Cast Protect
/wait 40

Yup! but too late, now I have agro!

Cast Regen
/wait 40

It expired before it showed up, or it just never hit. Which doesn't matter. Your tank is gonna die, and you don't even know it.

Cast Cure II cause nothing else is working .... nope ... health bar didn't move..... Oh wait .... it went down more.

FFS!!!! Benediction! Since there's no other recourse.

This is unplayable as it stands.


All I have to say.

[Esmian]

At first it seemed like it was limited to just Amdapor Township for me but just got done a Leviathan that was unplayable for everyone in the group. Virtually everywhere is lagging like crazy now.

[Noshpan]

It's not just the new trials and dungeons. I observed this happening to our healer and tank in Titan (story mode) when I was plopped in there for low level roulette.

[Naunet]

The lag is everywhere now. @.@

[CrAZYVIC]

The lag is active in ALL INSTANCES.

I was using Duty Roulette in all my Alts and im LAGGING.

A lot of friends are complaining about the lag too. I hope they Fix that soon

[Saziel]

It's not just instances anymore. It's bled out to the open world. I keep 90king and just extreme lag constantly.

[Chiramu]

I had no trouble healing with the lag. Why is the tank taking so much damage so quickly anyway, the only way the tanks' health spikes is if you get a lag spike, why are you queueing with lag spikes? A small delay lag is nothing.

[Ninix]

It was restricted to just dungeons up until like 15 minutes ago.

Now everything is lagging. Dungeons, extremes, CT, Coil, even the world zones.

Entire game is basically unplayable.

guess ur just 2pro dude

[Keeff]

Agreed.

It seems like every major patch comes with major issues and lag. That is what test servers are for but it doesn't seem as if they are using them and if they are, do they even look at the data and results?

Please make the game playable again and test your patches first.

Yes lag is out to the Open World now a bunch of people where 90k from my FC and people shouting on World Chat, my server is Excalibur and i only had lag on Brayflox till this morning . Things are getting worse by the minute .
