Google chrome had a pretty recent update. Either way my experiences do not mirror what others have had / claimed. Had 2 drops last night, which someone made a thread about, before that d/cs were fairly uncommon. Sometimes without a single d/c throughout the entire day

About 30-40 I guess. But then I’ve never had d/c issues. I’ve had stuff overheating that caused net to drop and stuff like that nothing ever browser or game related though. I do see my euro guys dropping though which is odd since they have 1000 times better internet.



I’ve definitely dropped several times during each of my solo climbs. I don’t do as many climbs as sc groups but I’d definitely putting in the hours with each sooo climb being 6+ hours. This did not happen prior to the change with the web sockets. Oh well. It seems the drops do not leave you connected to the game taking hits so it hasn’t bothered me too much.

Anyway,

Anyone actually interested in putting in the time to do this ? I know a few people who are.

imo, the time investment needed is not worth the reward, in fg or the gp's

especially with the higher likelihood of failure from dc and the harder mobs.

I would agree it’s much harder and chance of failing increased.

I believe if there was a 30-60 second window you could rejoin to mirror maze without failing would be enough to get me on board.

Obviously If you swap gear or shrine / use mp you would be disqualified.

If this was implemented then it would be dope to have something to tell you that your group still qualifies for mm

It's not worth doing with the disconnects no doubt the once that problem is resolved (if ever) it will be worth doing because it's part of the game and the point of playing is to play. A challenge is something some people might consider fun. No more free gps though for gps, it's gotta be earned. I wish the fish nerf was just reverted :( .

The disconnects and the end fight will be the only hard things imo

Everything else can be dealt with "pretty easily" if you're using "tricks" meaning it will only slow down the total time ( by not THAT much! )

It wouldn't hurt to try it at least once.. in a medium case scenario we disconnect @ some point in the mm and we've lost a total of 2 - 4 hours compared to a normal climb ( HUGE loss I Know ) in worst case scenario, some/all of us are gonna die.. which is gonna suck of course, but if you're on a lower class and/or you've nulled most of your profs it wouldn't be the end of the world. We can also come up with an agreement to town if it looks like a dead end.

And "worth it" is a very stretchy term.. But assuming everyone's main/only motivation of doing it is getting them gps, then it's probably never going to be worth it from now on, unless some changes are made, it was too easy before once you knew how to do it.

The solution to the fish nerf, if it won't be reverted, is to make it possible to heal while using fish, I think this is a nice middle ground
