Cities are pretty much a no-go for me, regardless of the server time. Questing and instances however have been pretty smooth.

the fix will be until 29th january

2k++ to 4k++ consistent ping for me...playable for melee chars only coz casters sure die one with that kind of lag...
around 4-6am only can get 300++ - 500++ which feels like im in WoW heaven..

Weird,

Me & my buddy had crazy no lag at midnight until the server went down!

Umm this may be a dumb question but some of you in 4 digit lag hell...are there routers/firewalls, etc. getting in the way of your latency? It's been pretty normal for my connection for at least 10 days now. Just curious, since I know my connection still doesn't allow me to do 40man raids. It's a good thing my guild is all busy levelling again though and no 40mans for a while

There is no other IP that is better for me. I still prefer 218.111 or 219.94 . These are the IPs that doesn't lag much no matter what time you play.

218.111.x.x
250-500 ms latency.
instancing is fine. so's pvp (ganking alliance shamans ftw). ganking questers also i think i got like 40 kills in like 3 hrs questing in terokkar forest. untill the server went down for maintainence.

Ganking 1v1 is fine, ganking 1 with a party is a noob type of gank. There are plenty of bad players doing this cause they don't use brains at all. It's inconsiderate cause you know you will win and take advantage of it. They won't know when it happens the same way to them. Winning with number of players is nothing.

i'm a rogue tristan i always quest alone >.<

Is ganking an unprepared enemy or one who is in the middle of fighting mobs or one heavily injured and resting after a vicious battle with mobs honorable? I dont know, killing a wounded enemy or a distracted one is like stealing candy from a baby..no thrill... I would prefer facing off a guy 1 on 1 and burning him down to the ground ... then again I'm more warrior like for a fire mage lol.

From 23rd january extend to 29th january. What next? extend till february also?

Still getting 3000~5000ms in game. Luckily my pure combat sword rogue can handle any monster by herself while I was lagging.

caster classes can't handle that type of lag...gerenti mati katak...

Lagging like crazy since 8:30am. Can't play at all, I'm on 218.111.xxx.

I linked the news to my Singaporean guildies and they laughed at the "fishing hook" mentioned in the TM article.

Yesterday i logged at Honor Hold and do some questing over and there's no lag at all, usually when i enter HH, my ping will go up as high as 14k MS, but last night it was like 400-500ms only. Also did HF Ramparts and some world pvp and everything running smoothly. I will try again today after i got back from work.

like illidan said
YOU ARE NOT PREPARED!!

always open up with a sap first, if it wares off and they start to actively look for you then it's on. else if they /wave means they are either a) not interested to pvp and would rather quest or b) waiting for backup to arrive.

back on track : so far no major lag issues yet only the sudden disconnections out of the blue sometimes. anyone got the same problem?

edit : on 60.48. stormbreaker hold 2.7K MS >.<

have no idea what you're trying to mean by that quote from illidan. Nice response but doesn't answer the point of making ganking any better.

Opening with a sap? heck if somebody sapped me from out of the blue I sure as heck will start actively looking to find out where that came from but that doesn't mean i am interested in pvp lol.

so what you are telling me at the end is just this...whack him first to see his response, he moves..its on...kill him. He waves...he may be waiting for backup..kill him to be safe...lol pretty opportunistic imho
