Generally Oceanic servers are still at US, they just time zoned it differently. So to let players have the false sense that blizz actually cared sad.gif

And i thought Blizz finally given oceanic servers an off peak maintenance time frame..

The time will depends of each guild, hard to give you some standard time...

You better check guilds individually.

The raids are in specific instances so you don't have to compete with other guilds. It's lock according to the raid ID which locks when one Boss is down.

How long are the raids? May take 30-60 min to get the first boss but the trash mobs respawn usually after an hour or more. Then the actual duration is probably 5-15 min. If there's wipes, then more boss attempts. Most guilds run 3-5 hrs. More than that, it gets tiring without a break.

Nothing much you can do just make sure nobody is using your connection heavily (like downloading, youtube, p2p etc.)

I personally do not really trust the tunneling services so cannot say much about them.

I usually have around 400-500ms ping for wow which is "acceptable" (I do almost no pvp and absolutely no arena)

I don't mind play with 400-500ms but it's just problem when I want to PvP...tested with trial, memang not smooth enuff with 500ms....
