Apologies to all who are waiting for ML's (whine)

[Chronictank]

I wont be running any ML raids in the near future and i figured i owed you all a explanation since so many are waiting on various ones on the way to ML10.
I used to enjoy running big raids, more so when they worked out. Rescently i have had no pleasure whatsoever running the various raids simply because of the endless DT waiting for LD's, Mass LD's aswell as the 5 second delay just to style/put something in the BG. The lag has made it not only unbearable to play but to give orders to people on the raid.
A short summary of the lds on each raid (yes i was counting just to see how bad it got):
ML1: 4 Ld's (2 repeat) - Small private raid of 1fg - Completed
ML2: 5 Ld's (1 repeat) - Small private raid of 3fg - Completed
ML3: 13 Ld's (3 repeat) - Public Raid 5fg - Completed
ML4:-
Attempt 1: 34 Ld's (5 repeat) - Public 8fg presant - Failed
Attempt 2: 22 Ld's (9 repeat) - Public 5fg presant - Failed
Attempt 3: 40 Ld's (7 repeat) - Public 10fg presant - Failed; GM presant
ML5: 27 Ld's (3 repeat) - Completed but lost half raid to ld deaths
Ml6: Delayed 2x due to Lag - Not attempted

See the trend? I give 3 mins per ld that means potentially a total of the following DT was LD related:
ML1: 12 mins
ML2: 15 mins
ML3: 39 mins
ML4:
Attempt 1: 1hr 42 mins
Attempt 2: 1hr 6 mins
Attempt 3: 2 hrs
Total: 4hrs 48 mins and no ML4
ML5: 1 hr 21mins

Today a GM went ld on my raid with the rest, he couldnt do anything to aid the raid due to restrictions resulting in ml4 being canceled a 3rd time.
Yes its a whine, but i have had enough.
Perhaps when 1.71 hits i might come back and give it another shot but at the momment i really havent the time to waste on failed attempts because of things out my power.
Ty to Erviross for trying to help to the best of his abilities but it was all in vain(sp?) another 5 hrs of the little free time i have wasted on this raid.
I will be retireing to prywden for the time being as solo rvr is non existant on excal.
Good luck to you all on youre ml paths

1.71 patch wont help anything either, damn problem is their Inet provider OpenTransit. Im ending subs aswell due to the delays and lagging..its annoying :-/

 

[Chobb]

Much appreciated the time and effort you put in mate

/salute

 

[Helme]

Salute for you mate, for even attempting. Hope the lag clears up some time so you might get the urge to try again. Until then im probarly going inactive, solo caster without speedwarp or brittleguards = dead and im not gonna stand in a fucking tower.

Hows that possible in .71 when requiel and the rest have already put the lag down to OT? Thanks Chronic for all your efforts even if i did`nt personally enjoy your style compared to Iricins i admire the effort in the face of all the problems <salute>.When players like this give up then you know thinks are BAD.Iricin already left and now Chronics stopped leading ML raid.Thats the 2 major leaders of the last few months.Happy now ?

the lag is ALOT worse in toa zones, so the problems with MLs is not related to OT.

 

[Sanzor]

Lately i haven´t had any lag in TOA thou, or at least nothing noticable. Maybe it got a bit better, or its due to the less players in the zones :-/

 

[ogmond]

ay eundeed latly toa zones are not so laggy.. but let's w8 till the patch and if is oki i /beg chronic to retry ml4 ..

Nothing to do with TOA - I've been trying to play in SI or classic to lvl alts if TOA laggs - its the same there.

 

[old.Whoodoo]

I gotta say this weekend I saw very little lag, or was I just lucky.

yeah, isn't it
atleast related to this thread

damn problem is their Inet provider OpenTransit.

Convenient Scapegoat imo. How come, very often, one account will LD and and the other wont see any lag? Humm... Zones. Now are OpenTransit being selective about which zones they are forwarding packets for? I dont think so.
