Subject: Re: Rivervale to Qeynos?


Lulen,

You know what? I am very green to be so far from home, lol. It's a
blessing in some ways ... less to risk making the journey from Kelethin
to Rivervale ... if I died all I lost was my guild tunic -- and I gained
food back, lol.

Basically, the reason why I left Kelethin so early is because Quellious
is a very young server so all the pc's were hunting in Faydark. I have
a crap computer (P200, 32mb RAM, 8mb StealthII) and with all the other
young pc's running around hunting my lag was waaaaaaaayyyyyyyy up. I
spent the whole time running around after npc's that were no longer
there or that someone else had already started whacking at. I'd start
combat with something right in front of me and *pop* it'd be 30 feet
away dying by someone else's hand -- you get the picture. I was getting
ready to delete the character and make something in Qeynos (I never have
that problem there for some reason) when a friend was making the journey
to Freeport. So I decided to go along for the run just for a change
from the frustration of swatting at "ghosts".

Once I was bound to Freeport, the server itself was having problems with
lag in the hunting grounds outside the west gate. 1000+ server side
lag. Even one morning with only 400 ppl on Quellious in total, and only
maybe 20 ppl in West Freeport, I was still running at 600+ on the server
side (that's the number on the right side, correct?). So, it was make
the run to Rivervale or scrap the char. So, here I am in Rivervale.

I know this may seem like a silly question, but don't you think you're a

little green to be so far from home just yet? It's fairly easy to hike
yourself up to level 5 in the Feydarks. Travel from Rivervale to Qeynos
is
VERY dangerous.....
