Suggestion to other players.

You know there's big issues with lag since the Data Center Move.
You know Raids are extremely likely to Lagwipe right now.

SO STOP RAIDING!

At least for a couple of weeks!

TR or something instead!

Give the Devs time to work on the Servers and stop lagging the rest of us out with your Lagwipe Raids!

[Basura_Grande]

No.

How about instead they (Turbine) just man and say what the issue is...

There is such a noticeable difference between LOTR and DDO on this that it is just embarrassing...

I continue to Raid during this time. I know LAG can make things more difficult. As the leader I take on the additional role of Moral Coordinator.

I also work to manage expectations - Raids can have unexpected situations arise when LAG is involved. Helping people through makes a big difference. What I have found is that people are frustrated with LAG but are willing to be more helpful to each other - Less Lone Gun and more Team Effort.

On Saturday I even helped to lead a group that beat my best time (as the Leader) on Legendary Hard completion. We did it in 6 minutes 28 seconds. Of course we had LAG that brought down some on the outside killing and then a 2 minute LAG spike after completion.

Saturday's Legendary TS's also had some challenge, but again the groups that ran it with me were able to maintain our Moral working together and taking the quest not as a ZERG fest but at an even pace.

Legendary Shroud the groups biggest issues were with the Crystal, when the 4 bosses dropped the LAG spike occurred each time so it took 4 beatdowns to finally get enough damage on the Crystal.

The trick in raiding during this time is to keep a good attitude, realize raids may take an hour or more instead of the 30 minutes or less people seem to want it to take.

Lag is back to normal now for me, but when it was bad there was no difference if there was a raid active or not (you can see if someone is raiding form the who panel).
And that raids suffer the most from lag and that raids cause lag are two totally different things. What kind of evidence do you have that raids lag out other players on a server or was that just a blind accusation?
