You guys failed this one pretty hard. I get lag everytime I log on, everytime I change channel, eveyrtime I enter or exit arena, guild town or a new map. For me it was better BEFORE you messed with it.

so was burning metal.....

but i guess that's a lost cause at this point.....

From that Server Maintenance thing, I noticed that my loading screen has become rather slow when it used to be very fast, now it takes me a long time to load in dungeons and such, plus, I get lag when attacking monsters, moving, and at times, I completely freeze right before I reached a place where a Soul Guardian is where a heavy concentration of monsters are and I die, which means 5% gone just because it freeze completely on me JUST BEFORE I get to a Soul Guardian

My loading screen has always taken up to a minute (sixty seconds) or three (180 seconds - no exaggeration; I've timed it) to get to the game. This is unchanged. But now, when changing channels, changing characters, entering/leaving guildtowns or trials ... I crash one out of every four or five times.

The lag in Aven does seem better ... but I wonder how much of that is due to the marked decrease in population. It's like a graveyard, on channel 1.

Dungeons, trials and regular maps seem more laggy than ever, to me. Sometimes skills don't go through - especially heals and pots - but I'm told in red text that the skill is on a cooldown. The pot wasn't taken, I just can't use the skill?

It happened off and on before, but it seems more severe, now.

It's been up and down. Overall I feel like it's gotten worse. I have gotten super frustrated with the lag and played much less this week because of it.

Is this a possible clue that we are having merge soon as next week's major update?

For me, personally, I havent been lagging as much ever since the maint. Still laggy a little but its less often & it only occurs in arena but when i 1st joined EE, (was about maybe a little more then a month ago) i didnt lag at all, so im sure it has to do with the maintenance before last but i could be wrong xD

On Garnet server.
Lag of death in Ulta dgn when i was playing on other acct yesterday, same with Rotten the day before, been seeing some lag on maps too, very rarely got lag on maps before maint but that could just be coincidence. Definitely seem to have increased lag in dungeons though. Seems less lag in Aven but that could be because the gold spammers get disappeared a few seconds after they show up.

Server optimization won't do a thing..


Double the memory and the lag will be gone. |:

I never lagged, and now I do.
I can't even farm anymore because all my skills are delayed when I cast them.

I lagged to death, then while sending an S.O.S. I lagged so much 7 people in my guild had already arrived and waited for me to revive. Oh, did I mention that I was lagging so long I was able to make a sandwich with all the toppings and such, and eat it and wash the plates before my revive status changed from revive here to [insert name] wants to revive you. I think they just want us to buy life leafs... Oh did I mention how fun daily quests are? waiting 3 minutes for the npc's chat to open. ah = . = I need my own personal healer just to do a simple kill x number of monsters...
