Just clarification ;

I was on Gilgamesh and still am doing fine .
No I am not on VPN although I am also a long time subscriber of bolehvpn. But I doubt it will have a large difference on things .

I had lags on Japanese servers too ,but it is irrelevant to the location of the servers . I have had a few hiccups once in a while but it is likely due to server overloads.
When we're talking about latency , undeniably NA servers are bound to have higher latency because it is further to Malaysia than Japanese servers.
But not the to point where it is unplayable .

And if we are going compare the servers in PVP , Japanese players are getting 15-30 ms from their region too. In high rank PP even 5 ms could means live or dead, so we are totally crushed too .

It is like I said , unless this game is designed with more intensive heroic raiding content than WOW ( which it is not ) , or unless you are extremely new to the whole MMO-Raiding experiences, you should be fine.

I did not have any problem playing on Gilgamesh dodging things as demonstrated in the video I had linked before the game even go live , so unless they have changed something from the beta, we should be still doing good . We are used to anticipate a move and dodging it naturally. Anyone who ever had heroic raiding experience in U.O , EQs , Vanilla WOW should know .

P/S : Stop discouraging people to play on NA servers , they are just fine . Got a few friend was reading this forum and told me to avoid USA servers like a plague but what was troubling USA servers right now are its stability ( it was down for almost a day )


My Ping records for reference :

without VPN
Ping to Quebec server : 264 ms / avg
Ping to Japanese server : 114 ms / avg

with USA VPN ( Bolehvpn )
Ping to Quebec server : 353 ms / avg
Ping to Japanese server : 448 ms / avg
