I spent a good 45 mins finding my way to that stupid boss only to have to do it all over again.

I had a similar experience. I went capping Flesh Golem with my necro and was practicing Shadow of Haste for about 20 minutes. Finally got to the boss and killed him, then it hits. I stood there with my 8 skills flashing for about 10 minutes before I could cap the elite. I lucked out on that one.

Also sold my shards to the merchant, after a failed run to the forgemaster. Now my necro owes my ranger another 105 shards and will hold onto Paulus's symbol forever.

I've had no major lag problems overall, but I have been getting quite a few err 007 errors lately...

In FoW, a gold Chaos axe drops for me. I finish up the combat while peeking at it (req. 8) and go to pick it up. The lag hits and I lag out, disconnected from Guild Wars. I come back on going "shit shit shit!!!!"

The Warrior in the group sends me a whisper telling me that it was a godly Sundering Chaos Axe of Fortitude and, sorry as he was for my predicament, it was going into his collection

At a later date, I grouped up with a familiar looking Warrior only to see him using it. We had a laugh, I had a virtual cry, and we kicked some ass.

I want my axe back

I was in a really good group for Arborstone and lost connection

Doing Sanctum Cay bonus a few weeks ago for my Protector Title. We reach the Gravestone, turn around and the ghost is stuck... we go back to sort him out. 10 seconds later, i drop!

Its only Sanctum Cay you say? Try the same thing happening another 4 times... twice i lagged out running past the Dock to the Bonus zone.

To prevent selling things like Ecto's etc in lag situations, try keeping your inventory separated by an unsellable item. Starter Armor and weapons work nice for this as does Gwen's broken flute.

I had like 60... it was glorious... but then I lagged out. I get online 2 seconds later and I get 7 rangers screaming at me that the minions killed all the ghosts. It was so funny that I nearly cried...

Ha!

That used to be one of my favorite things about being the MM.....if you lag out, you take everyone down with you

Lag, eh?

The worst lag disaster I ever had was when I was out romping in Pockmark Flats with my Ranger about ten months ago... I killed a mob of stone elementals, and imaging my surprise when I get: black dye and a sapphire. Sweet! I click towards it, only to see the dreaded slowing effect. Smaller and smaller steps until my poor Ranger was standing completely still. The skills I activated flashed but didn't trigger. My Wolfy stopped moving. Seconds ticked by. Then...

Connection with server was lost. Err=07

Yeah, that was probably the worst time.

Yeah, same here, except a few hundred.

Oh, and I lagged out during a free Droks run when I was a newbie... a few mins away from Rankor, and during a 17 win streak in RA.

I was in Urgoz' Warren. We finally reached Urgoz and I typed in "Woohoo it's Urgoz".

Err 7'ed before I got to press enter.

Kakumei · Jun 08, 2006, 02:48 AM // 02:48

Guesting for Imperial Deathsquad. Error 7'd. They lost.

We try again. Error 7 AGAIN. They won.

One more time. Error 7! They're still in that match.

Former Ruling · Jun 08, 2006, 05:09 AM // 05:09

I've never lost anything from Lag.

But today it was funny.

Stopped in my tracks while fighting a mob with some friends.

FOr like 2-3 minutes.

Then when it all came back it shot through EVERYTHING that has happned in like 5 seconds. It was an experience....Numbres everywhere...watching the mob cast like 30 spells in 5 secs...etc..

jackie · Jun 08, 2006, 05:50 AM // 05:50

Err7 while doing Urgo'z Warren is never fun. Luckily for me it was quite in the beginning but that's not very good for the team though...

*Sigh*

Slainster · Jun 08, 2006, 08:32 AM // 08:32

The other day I was trying to cap Feast of Corruption for my Nec from ol' Maw the Mountain Heart... fought my way up to Dreads from the warcamp... actually killed him... went to cap.. then got disconnected b4 my sig kicked in.. haven’t been back yet.. though Im probably due this weekend

**Marty Silverblade** · Jun 08, 2006, 08:54 AM // 08:54

Well, i was doing the Dragon's lair mission a month to two ago, and I was waiting for all of the group to realise that the boss had died and they could start capping. Anyway, some noob rushed through while i was eqipping Grognars defender. This caused me to drop it in the other area, therefore unable to pick it up. I was angry. Then the same thing happened again with my Malinon's Shield. I was very very angry. I then decided to leave the bonus for the rich people with too much money and the poor noobs with nothing to lose. I hate that mission.

To be honest, this post really has nothing to do with lagging, just me, two green shields and a really really nooby guy.

Yichi · Jun 08, 2006, 05:19 PM // 17:19

Won our way to the Hall of Heroes, Have alter when time runs out, req 10 serpent axe drops for me.... freeze on way to pick it up... err 7... cant list the profanities afterwards

ilmau · Jun 09, 2006, 08:48 AM // 08:48

seanedsw28 · Jun 24, 2006, 09:23 AM // 09:23

any and all times you get killed by lag

Silent Kitty · Jun 24, 2006, 11:06 AM // 11:06

Every time when monsters attack me, my computer starts to lag for more than 20 seconds. It has been that way since Factions came out. I simply create a factions character and move to Kryta and problem solved. Factions is ugly anyway.

EndoftheSyringe · Jun 24, 2006, 04:37 PM // 16:37

I have the same problem, Silent. When I am in factions I have imense lag. And then it is easily fixed by going to prophecies. I have to actually turn down my in-game settings when in Factions.

I've never had any major lag problems, but you guys make me paranoid.
