Good afternoon, I'm experiencing constant instabilities in zezenia, most of the players on my team are experiencing constant lags. Could you check this out? It is only in Zezenia this problem.

Runescape is also experiencing this problem

joking aside there are only 46 players online on elysium! come on staff...

Yes yesterday i must buy express vpn to play without lags you can try

I have much lag too for a few days, I can't hunt seriously and can barely exp.

I even got a lag death saturday (sent a report+mail, but no answer so far), with failure of lag protection (several instant desactivation, got some seconds delay again and again, therefore frozen as usual).

Could it be linked with recent new proxy list ?

Got some lags too :(

Hi guys. more one time i almost die, i had lag (only in zezenia) and i bought proxy..



and my game freeze after that

This is exactly same problem I got when I died saturday (4th March 2023 09:22:11 a colossal ice golem 359 Yes)
: a sequence of lag protections ending too fast.

Each time protection ended, I got some seconds delay within I was damaged but once again lag freezed while waiting next protection.

Got no answer so far from staff (a simple "sorry, we can't take that into account" would at least show me that reporting/mailing isn't completely useless)

Hi,

So the game froze using a third party proxy?




Hey Askja
The lag protection kicks in after 2 seconds of disrupted data transfer, if the connection is not working for 30 seconds your character will be kicked out of the game automatically. If you are experiencing heavy lag you should not try to log in immediately.

Where are you guys playing from? There was a south-american proxy added to the in-game client. Feel free to try it out, it should help you with high ping if you are playing in south-america. For European players there is a proxy available in Europe as well. Keep in mind that the proxy might not be the best option, please try both with and without the proxy in order to find the best option for you.

Heya,

Thanks for answering.

I'm playing from Europe, and no proxy or Europe proxy give both about same result, which is very satisfying globally. I sometimes switch from one to another but it only acts marginally.

But since saturday I experienced much lag spikes : 300ms, 400ms, 600ms (I even got a 800 ms within last hour).

I have the feeling I'm not alone in that case, and I have the feeling this lag occurs since proxy list has changed recently. But obviously I have no true evidence about that.

I changed my DNS and it seems it goes slightly better, but only slightly.


For my "unjustified" death here is what happened :

- a huge lag spike at 15000 ms, couldn't act anything during 2s
- after 2s, lag protection
- protection desactivated almost immediatly (as far as I could catch)
- got new huge spike immediatly, couldn't act anything during 2s
- after 2s, lag protection

etc etc.

After several turns like that where I couldn't do anything, I died.

Weird enough, but probably because of huge lag, desactivation logs appeared on my screen once char at temple ....

Last note : the lack of protection activation logs doesn't help player to realize what happens.

I understand the necessity of 2 second delays, I understand how it works, I just wanted to point out that in this particular case (I hope rare enough), the lag protection wasn't successful

Hi Askja

I am sorry for your loss. It is unfortunate that this happened. There is no good way to prevent such things from happening apart from the current lag protection. Death loss refunds are given when the servers are having issues. If you died while the servers were working properly it is up to your connection and therefore it can not be compensated unfortunately.

I have forwarded your issue to the dev team to check though.
