Unplayable game due to lag

So, today was rather laggy and all, taking a lot just to summon a pet or move an item from your inventory.
At first I thought it was just me, so I decided to carry on with the idea of doing the Rabbie Phantasm with my friends: they said they lagged a bit and all but it would have been all good when actually starting. It did not and now we're stuck on first floor trying to clear the rooms without any problems, but it's really taking a lot since we get a 5 seconds lag before 2 seconds without lag and so on.

Is this happening to only us or is someone else experiencing this mad lag today? (or this last days since maintenance)

    I can confirm that Mari ch2 is extremely laggy as a party and several of my friends confirmed that it was not just me experiencing this. I am currently on ch6 where everything is working fine. Are the other servers experiencing lag?

    I have very fast computer. This lag is something that Nexon needs to fix urgently. It is happening only on Mari ch2. It started around 3.30 pm PST. I am surprised that there was no post about it for quite sometime.

    I confirmed with many players that they all started to lag on Mari ch2 since 3.30 pm PST.

    A fast computer means nothing in the face of a crap ISP, and sometimes the cause of lag is not so visible.

    For example: http://map.norsecorp.com/ :smirk:

    All 4 of us had that lag, so it's definitely not client-sided.

    I don't know about you, but I am having smooth connections on Tarlach Ch7, the market channel.

    Sometimes lag is the fault of the player, the server, or the combination of both.

    I do remember a time when I had huge lag though, it was from having the Discord web version up too long.
    The moment I closed it 80% of my lag was gone.

    Although maybe I'm not the best person to ask about lag, since my internet speed is considerably fast now.

    Although it could just be Mari.
    I can't really give advice if its a different server than the one I'm on.

    Best of luck though.

    Both me and my boyfriend and a few other friends from Mari can confirm that ch2 is having very bad lag.

    Have you guys tried, I don't know, getting a better internet connection? Boom, easy solution.

    Channel 2 is Mari's market channel, right? Alexina's market channel is channel 1, and when I play on it I get occasional spikes that lock me in place and don't occur on other channels. Easiest thing you can try (outside limiting your network usage) is trying another channel on your server.

    Have you tried being smart?
    If multi people from different parts of the world are getting the same thing, then I am sure it's not on their end. I highly doubt the 30 or so people who has confirmed (Between discord chats and this thread) that it is not their internet connection. It's on nexon's side right now, not our side.

    @Buffalos - Yeah, Me and my boyfriend switched the ch5 and it doesnt seem to be that much of lag there at all. It seems that the lag is centered to the first cluster of channels for Mari right now. I am not sure if other servers are having this issue but yes, channel 2 mari is a lag fest right now.

    Yeah everyone who is lagging like crazy right now needs a new internet connection and a better computer SUDDENLY all at once... lol. Can;t possibly be the servers, right?

    seems to mainly be effecting Mari channel 2

    It's hilarious to look at that site with this playing in the background.




    I also noticed I'm lagging like hell on Mari myself at the moment.

    sooooooooo, where is all those retarded ppl saying "the lag its only on your mind" and "fix your computer", if you want attention go get a dog, most of the lag is actually nexon fault and the more ppl find excuses to defend them the worse it will be.

    It's been lagging on Mari ch.2 only from what I noticed, for a few hours. Takes anywhere from 5-20 seconds for each shop to open up and another 5-20 seconds for it to close. Moving things in inventory also takes seconds before it is allowed to be moved. I started playing on channel 1 and 3 just fine, but switching back to channel two is almost unplayable in combat.

    It is the internet service in the US, it will always cause these issues.

    Oh boy, yep, channel 2 Mari's being a bit unbearable.

    Going from ch5 to ch2 took many seconds.
    Had the funnest rubberbanding experience trying to go from the Advancement Hall to the Alban Knights Assembly Area in Emain.
    Shield of Trust took over 200 MP to load, if you tried it during one of the lag spikes. xD

    Yeah, definitely staying off Ch2 Mari until that subsides.

    Nexon's ISP must have a massive grudge against Mari's market, then.

    That's something I just won't understand with this game. You'd think they'd just put hard gauge usages on stuff but nope, they do a drain per second that continues to run when the server clogs up.
