what i dont understand is you can have 100+ people in permafrost without a single a bit lag ffs i remember takeing on voxx with 5 other guilds in zone waiting to pull and there was never any kind of lag , lag spike. why the fuck do these new zones have to be so gdamn shitty. if you have more then 40ppl in looping it makes phh a fucking pain in the ass.
server upgrades my ass

How long ago were the 100+ people at Vox? I remember, distantly, when there wasn't any lag at contested mobs.

I've found the lag to progressively be getting worse and worse.

Back in DoF it was "man, who the hell thought putting a contested mob in a zone that couldn't hold 60 people was a good idea?"; Now in EoF it's "man, who the hell thought putting a contested mob in a zone that couldn't hold 40 people was a good idea?"

Nevermind the fact that nowadays instances lag to hell and back. In Emerald Halls last night I was ready to tear my hair out. Not only was the lag bad, but we had numerous lag spikes on top of the lag. So, instead of only being able to get 2 CAs off in the 5 seconds my 100% crit proc Inner Fire is up being common there were times when I could only get one off. Our brigands are taking double up off their hotbars because it never works.

We have five more months to look forward to this getting worse? Man, who the hell thought...

All the skill in the world isn't going to counter 2- and 3- second recovery times in a way that amounts to "fun". It fucks up spell queuing and related macros on top of that, which when tied to the shade-hotbars-during-cast adds up to fisticuffs.

We got War tonight and from my end now is more fun then the others. That aggro wipe really keeps you on your toes with the his stun shield. Again though once they are figured out ownage lol.

this is simply not true.
debuffs and shortbuffs run on. (for example the "heal" effect on avatar of growth. it´s sometimes not possible to cure this within 8 seconds-> heal heal heal)
spawn timers on adds are the same (all avatars)

Just like you said, it took a 7min fight to 20min, not that anything changed or went wrong, just slows everything down with lag.

All I'm saying is, that all English servers are on carebear ez-mode. I remember the posts concerning Gardener pre-lagpatch when US ppl complained about 2-5 second lags while we had charmlag that lasted to up one minute (check youtube for vids).

You simply can't compare carebear servers that lag for what? 1 second maximum to the lag on German servers.

Thanks SOE for a totally fucked up translation system.
