Is there a way to fix lag and latency without having to disable Nagle's Algorithm?
I have quad core lenovo and I can't cast my skills fast enough nor can I walk around without rubberbanding in ch1 :bow:

I hate to say it, but disabling Nagle helps a lot even with connections that don't get much lag, due to how Mabi works. It's strongly recommended that you do this. Why do you not want to implement that tweak?
You should first check your latency to the Nexon's servers. AFAIK, the servers themselves are not pingable, but you can do a traceroute to nexon.net to check your ping to Nexon's ISP Edge router. This basically tells you how quickly your connection reaches Nexon's internal network, and since their internal network doesn't have much delay, it's a decent approximation of what your ping to the game server could be like.
Here's mine, as an example:
[CODE]C:\Users\Yoorah>tracert nexon.net
Tracing route to nexon.net [208.85.110.136]
over a maximum of 30 hops:
1 <1 ms <1 ms <1 ms ---
2 7 ms 8 ms 7 ms ---
3 11 ms 11 ms 11 ms ---
4 13 ms 11 ms 15 ms ---
5 10 ms 9 ms 18 ms toro-b1-link.telia.net [80.239.135.165]
6 11 ms 10 ms 9 ms level3-ic-305926-toro-b1.c.telia.net [62.115.41.182]
7 * 75 ms * ae-1-60.edge6.LosAngeles1.Level3.net [4.69.144.14]
8 89 ms 76 ms * ae-1-60.edge6.LosAngeles1.Level3.net [4.69.144.14]
9 83 ms 82 ms 81 ms NEXON-AMERI.edge6.LosAngeles1.Level3.net [4.31.55.142]
10 * * * Request timed out.[/CODE]
In my case, the ping time is around 82ms, which is pretty decent given that I'm on the Eastern side of Canada. Around 200ms is when you start seeing issues, I think--though different gamers/games will have different ideas for what ping times are acceptable. xP
If yours is way over 200ms, you may want to consider trying something like WTFast.

I'm just not so keen disabling nagle through cmd prompts like how others showed me...I'm just worried that if I make a single mistake it might cause problems to other programs that are open along with mabi.
And can you explain further on WTFast :bow:
