Trees and the battle of the best ping

[errei]

IMO treehuging batles are, more than nothing, a class-disbalanced game.

try fighting a marx in a treehuging fight...

but yes, ping is also very decisive

[Fiver]

I should have mentioned that I tried all my AS along with my FST 25 w/+5% AS.

The game has been very unstable, I often don't see my chat window ..then it pops up out of nowhere, I have my keys remap while i'm playing causing me to open random windows or clear my screen of all displays
or sit down mid fight ...thats my fav move XD

I'll have resist show as successful attacks in my log...this is most prevalent with CC's

I have tracked in the middle of a wide open field to be attacked from behind by a barb that I just ran past who wasn't rendered on my screen and never registered in the track.....I can only figure I'm losing massive amount of packets while playing and I have a call into my ISP to run some tests.

Done correctly, this target-recognition-expoit allows someone to hit you with absolutely no danger at all of being hit in return, & there's not one gd thing you can do about it either ... except cheat by ping-dialing at exactly the right moment to exploit the ping-compensator built into CoR (a definite no-no) or by moving all the way to Sweden where the server is. Really wish I could, those Scandanavian countries actually rock.

ive had this happen alot recently.when i was carrying the gem out of syrtis last 2 times and today again when i had a barb tree hugging cuz i surprised him from camou.im not going to name names thats not allowed,but this guy has made many new toons because hes been banned in the past for cheating.leopards never change thier spots.

its always such bad luck(people say) but ive always known this happens and is caused by players.i hope NGD do something about it because it piss's people off to see this happen.

Ouch! Generally mine is around 60. 78mb fibre optic, plus I shut off ANYTHING that could be using the bandwidth while I play (raspberry pi, web browser, torrents, email, etc), even go so far to turn off my phone as that shares the wifi. Haha. I setup the QoS in the router to ensure CoR has primary focus and picked an ISP that increases speeds in gaming and youtube, but throttles p2p.

Paddy/Penguin on his red archer could stand behind cover (a tree), move out, shoot me once, then move back, rinse & repeat .... the entire time I had him targetted, was directly facing him, didn't move at all, yet never fire off even one shot in return. I think the reason was that I was using a med. LB & he was using fast SB, but idk 4 sure.

My red archer? I haven't had a red archer since Raven lol. I can help expand the discussion though

* Attack speed of bow will play a difference. You'll find it almost impossible to hit someone who pops out from behind a tree and pops back in if they're using a fast sb and you're using a longbow.

* Ping depends, it's all in relation to where you are on the other person screen and where they are on yours.. sometimes players will look like you can hit them, but you really can't lol. For casting spells, though, ping will make a difference, but I think only major differences, such as 100+ ms difference. This would give the ability for the player moving out to cast a greater disadvantage to the player waiting to cast. (I'd explain this, but it's a bit wordy and I don't want to go into it - just basics of waiting for the cast).

* Global cooldown of normal attacks/cast times of skills - When I pop out from a tree, after my bow string has come back, your bow string will be held back, if that makes sense. So there's like a global cooldown triggered by Line of Sight (I think, honestly), so the game is derping, whereas I don't have that trigger because I moved and just stopped. I don't know how much sense that makes, but in practice it makes more.
