eLOL unplayable

I had to log off or i would have smashed my keyboard, going to play my guitar on full volume to vent a bit.

So 3 "little bugs" in eLOL.

1. DR bug back again, all team members have been one shot right after opening doors several times, my TR with ITC on (where is my immunity again? lol) and with 35% deflect.

2. Game showed 4 party members, we had 5. We couldn't benefit from each others buff.

3. LAG was so huge we couldn't even reach the 2nd phase of Lostmouth, tried it 5 times and we all gave up, logged off.

I am not here to give advises, but dear Devs or any game staff, how long you gonna keep a customer with such unplayable game, cause other areas of the game suffer same or even more bugs.

Edit: 4. The dragon reseted on our head with full health.

    Elol is fine, ive soloed it on CW.

    Ive been told DR bug is back from several people, but personally haven't seen it yet.

    However.. gawd people we already told you how to do elol a million times, SCORPS are scripted to the max,

    Rotation 1.. is melee claw swipe (anyone in the front of the claw will die in about a 15 degree arc give or take) this isnt a hit you take.. you need to move from it.

    Rotation 2, after this melee claw hit scorpion does a Cone AOE red.

    You move from both of them, if your PARTY doesnt have a tank who can take these hits, then someone needs to kite. Every class can kite, but I find it easiest on my cw.. as you just time the dodge from the claw hits.

    While kiting one scorp, rest of group burns down the other..

    Its done a thousands of times a day.

    If DR bug is back, its not just elol, its all dds, as I was told it happened in etos again.

    It has nothing to do with being a bad or unexperienced player! If one simply can not move from LAG normally and the crossing of the stone bridge results for many falling dozen times in to the lava, it stops being fun anymore.

    I personally do eLOL 90% of the time only with highly skilled and old time player guildies, so we know the pattern, but if LAG overwhelmes one, no experience will help.

    DR bug was definitely there, it affected all 5 of us. I must also add, that i have noticed, some artifacts make it even worse or they may trigger it somehow.

    Then there is also no excuse for having 5 players, but only 4 show up on the screen and that 5th person has to be dragged along, like a ghost.

    Also no excuse, if dragon resets in the middle of the fight.

    So stop defending HAMSTER, first step on the way to cure, is admitting the problem!

    I have done elol over 2000 times and had 16 horn drops. When I say there is no issue with the dr bug or lag, I am fairly certain my opinion on the matter counts as empirical evidence. The only 1 shot mechanics existing in this dungeon af this point are firstly the first bosses chrge mechanic and spear throw, secondly the scorpions fire breath and sting and thirdly lostmuth's lazer. With the exception of the spear throw, all of these are telegraphed and with the exception of facetanking the stinger, all of these hits can be taken by a tank. Elol has no issues, you do.

    actually facetanking the stinger is a piece of cake, i do it to get extra damage on Binding Oath

    i do elol a lot and i haven't noticed the DR bug return, i still get single hit by the spear throw/claw hit/tail swipe/lava rain but i always did unless i have shield on. in the past few runs i dont remember anyone complaining about unnatural lag too, so maybe it's just you and your friends' ISPs OP.

    Well we will see about lag after today..

    I will agree some areas are laggy, I dont see elol as being with the worst though..

    Etos final boss always seem to be the worst for me, like every other run.. lag
  • matthiasthehun76matthiasthehun76 Member, NW M9 Playtest Posts: 1,184 Arc User
    Well did eLOL a few times and luckily we didn't have to meet all of the bugs, but now, the first boss had two drakes 1 under his buttom, 1 besides the door. I didn't make any screenshot (usually i make screenshots from everything, but was lazy now), but all my party mebers could confirm it, we had a huge sarcatic laugh.

    Lag was also present, so no excuse for that again. When you see the fireballs stopping in mid air for long seconds, what is it other than lag?!

    Haven't encountered any DR bug in eLOL. There has been alot of lag lately, perhaps you mistook lagging for 2 seconds and getting a ton of hits in that span time as getting one-shot with DR bug.

    No mate, it was there, we opened the door and all 5 of us got the drakes in our face and we all lied dead on the floor. Like it was anno, before the patch.

    Yeah, paladin tank can just stand around on that pile of lava, GF can't stand there indefinitely though. I specifically excluded the stinger because it really depends on gear and class and I can see under some circumstances a tank not being able to face tank it.

    Elol has no lag and no dr bug, however, if he had raised lag in VT and MC, I will admit that there are sporadic bursts of lag there. I do not no what causes them, but recently I was in a VT party that was so laggy that when we entered the arena to fight valindra, the game literally would not let our entire party move. We sat around, went "WTF lol" and waited for the game to resume as normal. I got no idea what causes lag like that to happen and it happens sporadically, in those 2 dungeons.
  • banaancbanaanc Member Posts: 472 Arc User
    yeah VT seems to have epic lags

  • plasticbatplasticbat Member, NW M9 Playtest Posts: 12,417 Arc User
    I thought when there was a DR bug. A tank could not even deal with one hit. At the moment, I have not seen any of those.

    Seriously, stop defending Cryptic and their BS. There was definitely lag present in each and every eLoL I have done since Mod 6 launched. It is especially noticeable at Lostmauth when the fireballs hover in place for 5 seconds before they disappear. What would be your explanation be for that I wonder..?

    Well..if you wanna blame cryptic...can you tell us your fps when you got this lag and can you tell us what tracert said?
    Do you have only in eLoL lags? Got lags in some other places? Tried CyberGhost?
    And i think we talkin about an DR bug that dont exist. Only thehun thinks the DR bug is back.

    I guess those lag spikes appear when a goblin shark plays with the wrong transatlantic cable. :D
