    I'm having a 15%-20% ms increase since 2~ months ago, same internet service, same PC, same software; nothing changed except autoloot gem pet and the huge (for Agathon) ammount of players AFK farming Temple Zone. Can someone tell if those two facts can be possible related?.

    This is not support request, just asking for general opinion. Thanks!

    on agathon, I get extreme lag spikes out of nowhere where it becomes unplayable (almost always instant death, no damage, rubberbanding, characters movement all over the place), frequently occurs on zoning, but happens anywhere and anytime, but seems to recover in a short time in most instances. This has been ongoing since i started in february.

    Re-establishing a connection to their servers has been problematic, its like im getting ddos from their server and have to reload client and/or refresh my internet connection on my PC (it will actaully turn it off on my pc, i've never seen this in 30 years of gaming, my cable here has been solid for 5 years+ with barely any drops).

    anniverisary arena's are laggy, yet no other zones seems to be impacted. perhaps more people are active?
    Rising hero event i had seen anywhere from 5-25 temple sector parties, dont recall any issues, other than a couple server boots. I cant follow solo players but i see less than a few parties here and there in TS.

    anyways, were talking about a a few hundred players on a server, if thats all it takes to break it, id be questioning development as that shouldn't be occuring regardless of how monsters die. wouldn't rule it out, but, having consistant issues from the start, im leaning towards euro servers.

    not only Agathon suffers from delays, lags and other things, on Heredur, the same thing happens.. these lags can be linked to the influx of players during the event, many want to get weapons, but this disgrace can also be linked to such changes that do not require patches and fixes.. as a reduction in prices for things sold by players.. in general, I want to say that most likely all these inconveniences due to the game..
    many players believe that problems are in the game, but in the Turkish forum they claim that all these delays are due to our computers, the Internet and other things..

    This happens a lot in this game with different glitches.
    A lot of people find a way around farming and use these things.
    If something is said to these players they say it is not against the rules.
    Which technically it isn't.
    Just annoying for those of us trying to play and we can not because the lag on our server is so bad.
    This is not an influx of players doing an event.

    Thanks for the words Айлейд , I'm not talking about common lag/delay any game has... I'm asking for opinion about if "The 15%-20% ms increase I'm having since 2 months can somehow be related to the huge (for Agathon server) AFK farming players at Temple Zone with the auto-loot gem pet".

    I think this is not the reason for the m/s condition.. after all, there is no difference whether players play or their characters simply stand in the game, during the event "Rising hero" there were no such problems, although the Temples were crowded with players.. and in most, just in passive mode.. I think that the lags intensified with the last patch and event.. of course, I can't talk about Agathon, since I don't know how many players the server can withstand, I can only judge by my server.. personally, my ping turns yellow, and sometimes red, when I play in the festive arena.. but it is worth switching to another location, then there are fewer lags..

    sorry to broke into your conversation...

    No need to sorry Айлейд , I appreciate your words; and thanks for let me know that the Rising Hero event and the auto-loot pet for AFK farmers in Temple Zone doesn't seems related to any ms increase in the server you play.
