Guild Wars 2

I ve probably put up 20 hours on this baby and my bast time is 2:59… lol

I shall never get my Glint and it hurts me inside.

The skill bar lag, being in Australia, is critical and makes a lot of moves impossible! for me anyway.

Bah!

Some people I know from Australia use a VPN or something similar, e.g. WTFast. Mileage varies, but you can usually improve on the standard latency.

However, Australia suffers from a double whammy, making ping times high:

• It’s as far from the states as you can get and still have internet via cable.
• The local infrastructure is awful for telco, due to a combination of political and business decisions made by local monopolies. (And that’s not likely to improve soon.)

I’m not sure if there’s any way to resolve this except for ANet to offer an alternative method to obtain the items.

I feel your pain: I have decent ping and I struggle to complete adventures.
