ALL HAIL GM SECRETS!

So does this mean, Warriors wont crash zones anymore? cause that would be amazing news to hear

[Sickem]

what was servers previous config? I don't remember,would be interesting to compare. Can this lead to bard ddd being multi-mob again?

[Hunter]

Thanks Secrets for helping me with the install for the EZ Server on our new hardware!

The database is running on a Solid State Drive so the server should be faster than ever.

Yes, zone crashes still occur with AE's.

Don't believe me? Can send me a /tell in game and I'll gladly show you in PoFire with my Warrior.

Femme, please don't spread FUD unless you are sure of your information. I killed 150+ in PoF with my warrior at one shot and hit rampage no issues, zone didn't lag/reboot while the server was under load.

Secrets/Hunter also provided this image which shows Hunter killing every single mob in PoF at the same time without an issue.

[Supreme]

Just as a matter of testing i pulled one of the LDONs from entrance to gatekeeper and killed everything without the zone crashing.

ahh very nice!

[Reed]

Well this is a good update indeed. Great improvement Secrets and Hunter

I'm not saying the new hardware upgrade did nothing. All I'm saying is that the opportunity of crashing a zone is still there.

However, as for T3/T4 - I have no idea why we are still crashing up there. Basher appeared on /w all to be with us, maybe he can shed some light if the server side has any datail/info about it.

I am thinking that when we use #hatelist, it pulls from the server so much info for 24-30 toons to be called up and when multiple players use it at once, it leads to a lock up. Which is why we have so many crashes - mostly around a boss's death.

2 Nights ago in Nexus, I told my guildies in vent that it seems converting a huge amount of coins to copper and moving it to bank quickstyle also crashed the zone. I replicated that 2 more time that night. Tried now and obvious performance upgrades seems to have fixed that.

FUD?

Couldn't upload it here because I'm not an internetz genius

edit: o, that was only like 30 mobs btw... Whisky is weak ;(

Sorry I must be missing it, I don't see a zone connect message in those pictures indicating a zone crashed?

[OGFemme]

How many times do we hear PoFire crashed over the months but we never see a zone reconnect... Like I said, just pointing out: Crashing a Zone is still possible when over pulling.

I was using Rampage + Aug V x4.
I think the Aug 5 when it kills a bunch of mobs all at once, that's when it causes a zone to hiccup/lockup

[yellowbird]

Anytime that a zone connects (zone.exe, statically or dynamically) you get a zone connection message.  If your client crashed then that is a different issue.  Time for a hardware upgrade, broski.  Does Newegg ship to Nicaragua?

Here is the issue.  Whatever you dip shits are doing in T3/T4 to crash it needs to stop time now.  Saying that "oh with XYZ I can still crash PoF" to cloud the issue and direct attention away from your intentional crashes of T3/T4 is childish.

You are confusing your client crashing with the zone crashing. If a zone crashes you will see a yellow zone message.
