  Not my vid but this is a perfect example.
  
  This vid made me laugh and then I cried because we have all done this in almost every dungeon for weeks.

  No joke! But who doesn't like to be rubberbanded eight times in a row? :D

  Any of you guys already went to the wiki front page and checked the server status? Yea, alexina is showing latency

  I'm uploading a video right now just to show how the game has been for the past three days... it's gotten to the point where it's beyond frustrating, it's just literally unplayable :I

  No way. I'm actually doing the same thing. I'll update this in a few minutes.

  I wish I recorded my Karu run that I did earlier with my guild leader. Karu should've taken us maximum of 15 min. We were there for close to 45 min to an hour from all the random spikes we had.

  I just made one as well lol =)
  
  Should probably take all the video links later and make a topic on Nexon forums with them

  Yeah, this is pretty much an example of how playing in Alexina is like at the moment:

  Under normal circumstances (or even with the lag we've had up until the past few days), SCC Hardmode is very easily cleared by just an endless cycle of Crash Shot -> Crash Shot -> move to the next spawn while you're watching TV.
  
  The current state of the server is so bad that no skill will work properly, the mobs have ultra aggressive AI yet you cannot attack fast enough (if you're lucky, 0.3 second elf range will load under 10 seconds during burst moments where the lag seems to lift). Crash Shot becomes completely unreliable, and you have 0 mobility since your feet are glued to the ground 4/5 times an enemy aggroes you.

  ^ This. I think archers are hurt the worst. I was playing around with my bow (because I can't really do anything) and I hit a red spider. For about 4 minutes I was locked in between getting hit by the red spider and loading range skill. By the end I had 34 hp left, I have close to 300 hp and it only did between 5s and 10s on me.

  This will likely blow your mind if you don't play on Alexina.

  Mine's just a short clip of trying to do normal things..like walk or summon pets
  or create a party ad.
  
  All of which are extremely frustrating to try to do with this lag D:..don't even get me started on trying to feed my ego.

  Trying to talk to NPCs once peak hours hit has turned into an absolute nightmare. Moving scrolls while trying to play music= RAEG.
  
  Sorry that you guys have to keep whining from us but as you see in the videos, it's not without reason. And they don't address the issue no matter how many threads there are, that I know of. I haven't seen a thing.
