I agree with you about the lagginess of unrest. I think it's mainly
due to the fact that its such a small zone. Theres always lots of
movement there, especially during a fresh spawn. And, as far as I'm
concerned, 55 is too many for a zone of that size. One thing that has
helped me with my lag is turning off any video effects. I believe it's
particle effects but I'm not sure (at work). It helps with video lag
tremendously. The only downside (if you consider it a downside) is
that you cant see the "fireworks" that come with the spells and you
cant see rain or snow. It doesnt affect the game play and I really
dont miss out on it =)
Another thing that tends to slow me down is my sound card. It's an
onboard and it sucks. I keep my 3d sound off and go about my business.
It's not bad, just not as many sound effects.
Hope this helped some!
