that literally nobody takes any notice of,

Thank you for deciding how I have to play this game.
Could you please decide for me what I should eat for dinner, too ?

So am I the only one who can't log on after this patch? "An update error occured", on 33%... Tried restarting the client, steam and pc multiple times...

So just following that train of thought here... "monster pathing = increased server load" hmm. So, this would mean lots of these people (many of whom are on my ignore list) the ones that 'zerg' really hard through areas causing red alert all the time every time are the ones causing extra server load...? Okay! Now I have more ammunition for telling people not to zerg, it causes extra server load according to the devs' statement there.

3-4 Updates/patches/hotfixes later, you still didn't figure out how to fix the 'gold names' bug yet? ... well i think it's just mainly annoying atm but wondering if that is having some connection to the game wide issues? hope you boys can get that sorted out eventually, know y'all are working hard putting out more and more new content with lots of strange bugs going on still . appreciate you good folks at SSG and hope you guys and gals and your families are in good health. live long and prosper, peace

Lag didn't seem gone - but definitely much, much better. We ran a full group on horses through the Wheloon epic wilderness through heavy red alert with zero lag at all. That used to spell major lag-feast.

The lag we did have was a bit of stuttering but nothing game freezing and hence within the playable.

Now, I know this is just after a downtime but it felt promising.

Can I ask what the bonus type for the Elder's Knowledge set bonus is?

Bump this question.

[korgzz_bloodaxe]

Also, has anyone done Orchard slayers in a group of 6 yet? Wondering how big the spawn reduction is? 10-20% might be okay if less lag but 30% or more would make it much less attractive.

Since this patch I've been experiencing occasional quest loading timeouts. It hasn't happened a lot, maybe a couple times over an 8 hour session but has become regular whereas I've not seen this behavior in the lifespan of DDO aside from when there were system outages and everybody was out for all quests. When this happens I eventually get the lost connection dialog box with the main screen going black with some chat text lines overlapping each other in the upper left corner that look like lost connection messages.

When I start the client and select the same character it times out during initial loading. That has happened every time I sequentially use the same character with the initial issue. If I start with a different character, it loads fast and normal. If I log out and back in with the original character, it now loads fine.

I've only had this issue on Hardcore...which is a bit unsettling
