Khendaros 2 Report post Posted January 25, 2019 When it tried to connect to the server many times it takes a lot. when I start playing the average latency is 5000ms! and many times the game freezes and disconnects me, the most curious thing is that, in other servers such as KronosWoW and RetroWoW I'm much more stable latency. I hope you can help me ... lately I've been latency and I stress so much I do not know if I should delete folders or it's just the server or me. Thanks for watching :) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zancon 117 Report post Posted January 25, 2019 Our server is located in France - depending on your physical distance from the server it increases the number of "hops" to get to the server and the amount of possible issues along the way. While there is nothing we can directly do on our end there are a few things you may be able to do to help minimize the variables and amount of other servers and routers your computer has to go through before it reaches our server. One of the first things to do that could be helpful is to make sure the game is close, navigate to your WoW 1.12.1 installation folder and delete the WDB folder. This will clear your cache. The next time you load into the server, an updated version of cache will be re-downloaded automatically. After that you can start looking at addons - I don't think disabling your addons will have an effect on latency but you can always disable them in the character selection screen and see if it helps at all. If it does, start enabling them back again 1 by 1 until you are able to figure out which one it is. From there you can either get rid of the addon entirely, try a fresh install, or try a different addon with the same or similar functionality. The next best recommendation I can give is if you have access to a VPN. If you do you can possibly skip many of the routers and servers on the way to the game server to minimize latency. I would try several different "end" servers in the VPN client if it supports it, starting with an endpoint in France, another with an endpoint in your home country and then a couple of other ones at random between and see what results you get. If you do not have a paid VPN service you can try some trials to at least get a proof of concept if this will even work for you. A couple that offer this are TunnelBear https://www.tunnelbear.com/ Express VPN https://www.expressvpn.com Let's start here and see what we get. Let me know the results. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Khendaros 2 Report post Posted January 26, 2019 What I did was delete the WDB, WTF folder, delete the Atlasloot addon and do not change the video settings and now the average in 300ms and sometimes go down to 100 or go up to 1500. At least it is playable now, thanks for the help 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
