I've been playing this game again for over a year. Have about 6 Masters, a lot of Experts and a few Vets and the rest... level 100. Kinda lost interest in it since I spent too much money on the game. Last December's HCOF promotion really got me hooked on topping up... I think it was 13 top-ups in a month.. After that, I just kept on topping up once a month and for the past 2 months, I haven't topped up anything.

My current ping to the server is 0.5 ~ 0.8 (500ms ~ 800ms)... That's a bit too high... They really shouldn't have moved the servers... Now I have less mood to play this game.

@A-Note: You tried playing on UNMC or the one that can be used from inside the Halls of Residence? Try the latter, for sure you can play. I did and I left my laptop on while I went to class so that the chars can train. Now that it's summer break... erm... I take a break too.

Lol.... Just do a /pingtest ingame and you'll see on the left side what your ping is... 0.1 = 100ms, 0.01 = 10ms and so on.

Mid Wing G Floor? Hahaha... No worries. I was in the same situation too.. I closed everything when I went out... Just left the laptop there running. Came back and the room was damn hot. Because of the laptop's fan. What intake? January? July? Foundation? 1st year?

Don't worry about that. The new patch has raised the chances of the ore dropping. Just keep killing those Elites with chars that are about the same level as it. Then you'd get it. Wait till you go for Occulta quest. Then you'd really be screaming. XD Running from one room to another with freakishly imba mobs on your tail (if you have crappy equips).

The mini-bosses, you can just screw them event at vet if you have good equips.

As for bots.... There are so many types... There are running bots... or just normal bots like the one mentioned by ijat84. Some have auto answer for the bot checks. Stay off the bots if you don't wanna collect 2k+++ rat meats/nail (the amount increases everytime you get sent to prison).
