Azura Star EU

Beesting

Azura has been good fun to play on, not much lag and lots of action.

Tonight at 20 pm just as i logged in karisha's ep group ruined the fun though, causing so much lag i could not use any skills for 2 hours, causing our whole guild to log off for the night....

Even now at 23:30 this has been a wasted evening, i dont know how 30 people can cause that much lag, even running the scroll for 20 mins they caused so much lag i could not use skills. They do something to lag out the server that is for sure

You missed a hell of an evening! Lol! Your blue buddies came back at 2am, where the few pact who was left did not stop the Blue emp title. What the hell the yellows was doing I have no idea. Maybe all that spanking that we PACT did, made them dizzy!

Tomorrow I'll come back kids!

Accusing people of purpously using something to lag out the server using some sort of method is the most idiotic thing ive heard.

SWAT run a 24 man train and so does Kharisha, Obviously lag is going to occur. From this post i take it they smashed you, but i wouldnt feel too bad about it as certain skills work better in lag and numbers also play a factor and this plays the decider, in the end no one wins. Also kharisha is a good guy and im sure he doesnt want lag either.

I am not part of the EP lag train group nor of any other blob. I have been playing on Azura for the last 5 (6?) campaigns at least.

Blue group from yesterday: Arriving at a keep, us (at that time 8 people) and a couple of randoms defending, this one group rolls in. Our PR jumps, no one from our group is able to put down countersiege (we have had players from Germany, Switzerland, Netherlands, Denmark, UK and Greece on at that time, don't even imply provider/network/hardware issues) skills take between 2 seconds and 30 seconds to execute while they can put down siege and wreck the wall in a couple minutes.

Yellow group which may or may not be named after a movie with Samuel L. Jackson and Collin Farell attacking BRK or Sejanus. During the siege, everything is fine. As soon as the wall breaks down, you can't shoot any siege weapon at all and get rekt by the horde storming in spamming healing rings, barrier and whatnot. Death recaps are always the same: Proximity detonation, steel tornado, sometimes seasoned with a couple meteors, fire rings.

Yesterday we felt the lag trains wherever we went. PR started to go below 1000 around 10, half past 10. It would still spike occasionally and whenever we encountered one of the other faction's trains, but at least it wasn't universally bad.

Bottom line: I hate blobs. They are NOT faction specific. Every faction has their own "subhuman". No one side is "better" than the others and would do best to stop their superiority complex, whether they are called SWAT, eXile, <pick flavor> Squat or "EP lag train" (don't even know their guild and frankly don't care).

Beesting

I am sure Karisha is good guy, i was just saying that when i logged in there were 70 EP blobbed on Arrius mine, i understand that causes lag.

But what i did not get is how they can have only 30 people in an open field, with maybe 10 ad around them, obviously waiting with the scroll to farm AD , and so much lag that when i came riding up and dismounted i could not use any skills and could just walk into them and around them without taking damage for 10 mins. And this went on for a long time.

I was not running with swat train at that moment, jackman decided to not bother going after scroll and was taking faregyl.
But if Abraxus says it is all legit and peachy i will take his word for it.

Next time i will just go siege Rayles or something....less lag on blue side.

this game is just broken. yesterday our grp had 0 meteors slotted but was pretty large (about 17 people i think). as soon as an enemy group didn't vaporate on impact but, say, popped a barrier or two and fights lasted longer than a few seconds, the lag started. the longer we "tried to fight" (i.e. eventually involved into a blob with everybody spamming his one favority spell for lagfeests), the worse it became. initially healing was a close call, later i could go anwser the door during a fight in sejanus and come back just to see nothing changed. I don't know if this would have ever ended if we didn't just leave the keep (all alive) and run somewhere else.

since population shifted away from a few imbalanced but playable campaigns plus laggy thornblade towards this current mess, i'm kinda done with pvp until it gets fixed.

it's funny that people start blaming enemy groups (for using meteor or whatever).
imho it's that simple: huge fights (two groups with ~20players plus a significant bunch of random adders for each side) NEVER work unless they're a complete stomp. randoms (solos) will always add, randoms will more than often use and spam meteor. i don't think ANY group intentionally creates lag.

imho we need to stop flaming/hating enemies and demand fixes even more strongly, instead.

The whole thing reminds me of the story in the Hitchhikers's guide to the galaxy about the rain god:

"And as he drove on, the rain clouds dragged down the sky after him for, though he did not know it, Rob McKenna was a Rain God. All he knew was that his working days were miserable and he had a succession of lousy holidays. All the clouds knew was that they loved him and wanted to be near him, to cherish him and to water him."

maybe one of the people in karisha's group is unknowingly a Lag God

i have heard rumors about this, the best rumor being that there was lag around him even when it was a 3 vs 3 fight and when he was killed the lag stopped. I don't know if this is true.

I am not trying to blame or flame, but i do feel sorry for the people that run with him frequently, it can't be very nice to have lag everywhere you go. (At least i could just go to a lag free Haderus for a break)

Karisha's group doesn't make lag more than Swat I find ....

Beesting

Anyway, tonight has been a lot of fun again, no lag at all, even though dc groups were doing a lot of ap farming runs with full raids.

Maybe it was just the server yesterday

no, this proves that only subhuman's lag-train making game absolutly unplayable, if they always will be sit in lag-o-thorn, azura will be nice every day

subhuman was raiding yesterday afaik (saw him ig with my own eyes). Your statement is untrue.

There's a story of pots and kettles, taresgos. In your place, I wouldn't dare to complain about "trains", "blobs" or "zergs".

Izanagi.Xiiib16_ESO

Fought karisha's full raid many times with 0 lag. They don't meteor unless you metered them first.
Also their gvg vid didn't seem to show any lag.

Can't say the same for 'red diamond' though if that's the group that was there

Taresgos

lol sorry a set of words before quote in my previous message was not intended, i deleted it)

seems we play with different karisha guys, ppl say about unplayable lags in zone chat only when his train online
you all can check it by yourselves - just play only on azura 1 full week and you will see when it lag and when not.
i just cant understand, if them gameplay same on any server(3 hour of super lagging) WHY they want ruin game for everyone?? sit on 1 server with same junkies on enemy side and everyone happy. whyyyyy?

Ar0aX

thats really simple...
if the necrotic (karisha) raid comes, every enemy spam a meteor on us...

QuiCkyRa

First of all everytime we went on azura, russian EP group were on azura aswell, then if u spam 1000 meteors on us dont be surprised if it lags, we dont want lag we want to farm as much AP as possible if lags come we cant kill *** and dont make any AP at all. We never have lag except when we get meteor spamed.
We have no lag when we raid on haderus or somewhere else because we dont get METEOR spamed... so think about it.

I think u guys are just mad because everytime we show up we dethrone u guys and take the scrolls back at primetime.

Kh0ll

SWAT + LUX DEI = lag until in PvE...

Split for *** zerg... we can't play...

Beesting

I dont mind ep raid coming and taking keeps, or dethroning our emps. I just was angry that 2 nights ago 30 of you could take a scroll and walk it superslowly past 4 yellow keeps and there was so much lag none of us could use any damage skills at all. Sadly meteor is the only (be it useless) skill that works in lag, making it even worse. But the lag was there before a meteor was used.

Today for example we had a massive fight with 50 EP between garthok gate and scroll temple, 30 ad against lots of defenders. I think we had pugs of both sides.
It was epic fight, good defending by EP and lots of fun

And no lag at all....

Explain this. I certainly don't understand it.

Did u spam Meteors against the 50 EPs?

I have a question to the yellows and the blues. Why not try to take the keeps and scrolls in the day time or in the evening? Or is the night time the only time where you can flip the map?

I'll love defending and kick armies of 20 enemies butts, alone. But this is getting silly. 3 nights in a row the Pact fought well in the evening. Then the blue/yellow nightcrew pops on. Everyone vs 1 Orc.

Grow some backbone and try this in the evening!

Beesting

Good question, i think i reflected a few enemy ones, but i used my barrier ulti four times because it made more sense.

The thing that i noticed is that everyone was spread out over a large area, no bombgroups on either sides.
I think the EP bombgroup was fighting blues at aleswell instead.

So the fight lasted a long time and we could not take the scroll. I said to my friend if we had a bombgroup we would just walk straight up to the scroll, now we were all spread out and could not.

Anyway, many people have made the connection between stacking up (as bombgroups do) and lag
But when i play with swat and we have a 24 person group up we dont have massive lag unless we stand on the inner flag and the other faction stacks on the outer flag, which is again to be expected.

I personally cherish every evening i can play on azura without lag, i don't take it for granted anymore,

And i am glad you dont have lag in haderus when you go there (hint hint...)

No it does not! Open your eyes! This is precisely the reason why it lags because most have no idea of how to play in Lagg!

The lagg is provoked because it is the only way to stop our train. It lags so long to many opponents have arrived and we die only by the lagg and too many enemies.

Izanagi.Xiiib16_ESO

All this complaining about lag. If you don't want lag on your server make the change and drop caltrops and meteor from your builds. Yes people will still use it on you but at least you can rage at them justifiably rather than hypocritically.

I'll say again I've fought karisha's raid inside and outside keeps 24+v24+ and we didn't lag at all. And the main difference was neither side is using meteor then. Also we weren't using caltrops as we had just done gvg so we're still in those builds (didn't see many if any from karisha's side).

We generally don't even lag inside keeps cause to prevent that you just need to kill your enemies fast.

Most lag I've had recently is fighting 2 blue organised raids and 1 blue pug raid at the same time on aleswell mine. .. They blamed us being 24 for the lag cause we won XD.

Also meteor isn't the only ulti that works in lag.

Just gonna say that after guesting for a little bit on Azura i can fully understand why you have latency issues. There is so many guildgroups running on that campaign for it to be playable. I mean just yesterday i saw 3 diffrent DC raids there. Adding two EP raids and two AD raids... yeah goodluck playing there in primetime

You forgot to mention that those 3 dc raids tend to go to the same place.
