Some things that can be done : Vanguard Premium Discussions

Hey everyone I have been a lurker here for quite some time as a premium member and I figure its about time I add a little of tid bits to the forums for you all to enjoy.

So this is somewhat of a known issue throughout the PvP servers, although to those of you that do not know.

If you want to win just about every battle in PvP the key is to load yourself up with buffs. The more buffs the more lag that is sent to the group that you are fighting.

Each time a person targets you they have to load all your buffs which will cause extreme lag on their side when you have 20+ buffs.

Throw on every buff that you can even the ones that may be slightly detrimental to your stats. Double stack the ones that can be double stacked... buff yourself with your newb buffs that have same effect but a different name. Such as Renewl I and Renew II.


I guess another goodie to throw in is that it is confirmed that Renew II and Renewel III stack in their combat endurance regen effects. (Shaman and Cleric renewel buffs dont even stack).

Exploitable Area's

Isle of Madness

The mobs in the isle of madness are surrounded by a huge wall.. well you can target these mobs from outside of the wall. Send in pet and your golden. (I do believe you can even use aoe skills to hit them through the walls). Now heres a bit of a kicker.. if you get too close to the wall a mob will path through the wall.. enabling you to single pull the linked mobs.. the others will stay stuck behind the walls.

-------------------
Bard type exploits

Using the above area you could in effect bot yourself a high lvl bard or high level pet user to kill to your hearts content.. with my bard I have created my DOT song which will hit at a distance of 65m and has no line of site needed. So sit on oppisite side of wall.. go afk come back mob is dead. Very slow killing this way due to the gimpness of bard songs -- but just some more info. I think this info could lead to some better discussion on how to get larger returns from them.

This is true and to help yourself you should remove the frame that shows other players buffs. I use droxui but should be able to remove it with default as well.

Can premium members say yay or nay to this being moved to a confirmed section.

I know that would appear as the solution but it in truth does not help as the coding still loads all the buffs. Using coreui2 I shut off the buff bar and still get the lag associated with buffs. Tested this out many times.

Dunno I thought I got a slight increase when I removed the frame, but hard to tell as I get crap fps anyway. Either way it will hurt most of your opponents framerate.
