I test my connection to the server by doing production skills. Every process should be taking 3 seconds, but because in between continuous iterations there is some sort of handshake with the server, the actual time taken is longer. The mean time per rendition is now 4.4 seconds (over 50 continuous iterations - this tests consistency!). That's 16% up from 3.8 seconds before. The range has also increased - I now get the occasional 6-second iteration. From experience, this only happened with a busy traffic. However, it isn't due to my side today ~.~

Edit: It's not just production skills. Doing the aforementioned activity is totally and utterly unnecessary, had I only tried to attack a monster. The inconsistent casting delays renders my mage unplayable.

Outspark should've tested the new connection before migrating. In fact, they should in future test everything before rolling them out. Not only would it decrease downtime, it would also save them the trouble of glossing over failures.

Not failing to mention their track record of crappy timing with updates/changes that are likely to cause extended amount of downtime.

Lol.
