xordevoreaux Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 I'm sitting at 178ms latency from Florida to Germany's server but I only play PVE. Not feeling the effect. If you're not engaging in PVP your latency is fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mubrak Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 (edited) For a 2500mi / 4000km distance, that ping is a dream. It may be high for a shooter, but it's fine for an MMO, especially one with tab-targeting and auto-aim. As long as your connection is stable, a 75ms ping doesn't matter much for reaction time, and for ability use it really only makes a difference for the few off-GCD abilities anyway. The only issue you could have with that ping is the occasional packet loss with a doubled or tripled ping. At 20ms you won't notice a 40-60ms spike, while a sudden increase from 75ms to 150-225ms can be quite noticable. Now, if you were at 150-200ms ping, I'd recommend a ranged class or powertech / lethality op for PVP, but even at that ping and higher, melee classes are still playable if you learn to compensate for the ping. For PVE it doesn't matter that much, just remember to jump after moving out of circles. BTW: all EU servers are in Ireland.

LMAO 😂😂😂 “that’s a lot of Ping”... best laugh I’ve had for ages That’s not even remotely high. When you start playing with 160ms you can start saying it’s high. Come see me for advice when you start playing pvp with my ping of 320ms on DM or 260ms on SF, Edited August 21, 2018 by TrixxieTriss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trixxie... an avid and competitive PvPer in Australia ... would kill for your ping. Edited August 21, 2018 by Andryah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are truly having an issue with lag, try increasing your skill queue timer in the settings, so it will still activate the skills on cooldown, despite having increased lag.
