I'm fine with the US server - only get a 203 - 250 ping whenever I load into a town, a major city or the first few seconds of doing a party raid .. after that it's smooth sailing for me
@@TannaTime Can you elaborate? I mean we're getting the short end of the stick along with some other regions in the world like South Africa and I don't mean no disrespect for our fellow gamers in SA but we do have considerable gamer population that is being strung out for legal reason? Can't it be resolved?
@@RandalReid it cost money to run servers anywhere in the world, SEA just happen to not in their scope of operation, and by doing the regional block on steam theres an indication for a SEA server opening by another publisher, hence the legal/contract issues, hopefully us SEA gamers will get one sometime soon in the future.
@@minervashideout Servers costing money goes without saying - that's a given. "...there's an indication for a SEA server opening by another publisher..." You lost me here. Are you saying there is contractual dispute?
The last time I played there was no SEA servers and I don't think there will be any time soon. Question is why do you wanna play on SEA servers if you are in the US?
As much as EU would be better in ping, EU also have those horrendous queue time and limits. Personally, i think playing US West might be better than EU if you don't really mind that 20+ ping differences.
@@TannaTime Haha depending on the server. Yesterday about our time midnight, every server was full and the queue times varies from 6k(Inanna) to 12k(Slen), I heard there was one that was about 20k but I couldn't confirm that.
I think if you want to play on EU. You must pick the right time to play because around 12am SG time the queue will be 10k+ but on the afternoon or evening no need to queue
Do you maybe have an extra na/eu steam account or anyone I can ask to make some? Because ive been trying to do the way you taught in another video but been doing the captcha for like an hour now and just got tired of it, thanks!
Try redoing the whole process like maybe restart your PC and all network things can be tricky sometimes. You may also need VPN to start download recently some players reporting that as well.
@@TannaTime Thank you for the suggestion! But I actually found a faster and better way, you can do this with your main steam account as well so that's a plus. You just have to go activate TunnelBear and add a game to your cart, then you can change the currency in the top right of the purchase to USD and then it changes. Once it does you can look up Lost Ark and it will be there and you can download it, but the store region will change back to the original once you turn off the vpn but that's fine since we're only doing it for lost ark anyways :D
I don't but if you don't mind paying for the subs it may be worth it but it reduces from 200 to like 170. Imo not that big of a difference to pay for VPN to reduce ping haha.
well its against Terms of Service but people think as long as you arent purchasing games and exploiting the different region pricing you should be fine
Sometimes but last night not at all during my 7hours stream! Maybe they fixed it or something recently. So far only one bad lag during a group dungeon only.
Well …I should have watched your guide before I started my account on SA… I’m gonna play on Rogendel since most of you will be playing if the other one is full Thanks for the guide and cheers from M’sia ✌🏼
Thank you for the help, Buddy : )

That's good to hear thanks for the info! :D
I play on US-West. I get 150-170 ping (im from the philippines) which is fine. I love this guide. Thanks sir!
No problem glad you enjoyed it! 150ping is awesome! :D
Which NA west server you playing with filipino players?
what ISP sir? i also play on US West but 188ping all the time.
Converge 300mbps only.
@@bars84 Ano vpn gamit mo sir?
so basically its still officially unavailable for SEA regions?
Eh yeah haha so might as well just play first.
@@TannaTime if it does comes out in our region ,then is there a way to tranfer progress
@@architdabral9035 ofc it will not have that function.
I dont use vpn so long you have 100mbps you are good to go. No rubberbanding on my end.
where are most sea players playin at bro?
SHOULD be US West - Valtan ( I GOT SAY IN THE VIDEO LOL XD)
@@TannaTime wanted to double confirm... Thanks
what about the ping spikes, I got les than 200 ping but it spikes, was it just my internet connection?
Why SEA doesn't have their own servers?
Hmm.. legal issue$

@@RandalReid of course, you can kind of say SEA is not in amazon games jurisdiction
Which ones will you recommend since some of the servers are now creation locked?
According to the chaotic discord right now: Whichever that's available to create =\ so it seems like Valtan might also be locked but later we'll see.
I need to turn on my VPN all the time when im playing but i saw that you said we dont need VPN to play, any solution?
Yeah so far most of the players have no issue with this. Not sure what's the case by case problem wish I could help :(
I'm probably gonna be live in a bit so join me there!
Stream link -> th-cam.com/video/LOIFj3KH-aU/w-d-xo.html
I already have a US acct, i can see lost ark in my store but I can't download it. Any fix?
turn on vpn to download, once the download starts you can turn off VPN
What Skullies suggest. Some players need some players don't need VPN to start the download.
Any SEA player base guild on Rohendel ?
Cant click play on my steam account any reason why? Tried turning off and on the tunnelbear vpn no avail D:
The game is not yet live, it got delayed :(
need vpn
how do i do this if i'm in america but want to play on SEA servers?
The last time I played there was no SEA servers and I don't think there will be any time soon.
Question is why do you wanna play on SEA servers if you are in the US?
@@TannaTime i have friends in SEA they play the KR version, they said it's better and more complete. ie they won't play the amazon version
As much as EU would be better in ping, EU also have those horrendous queue time and limits. Personally, i think playing US West might be better than EU if you don't really mind that 20+ ping differences.
I just heard 10k queue in EU or something? That's crazy lol.
@@TannaTime Haha depending on the server. Yesterday about our time midnight, every server was full and the queue times varies from 6k(Inanna) to 12k(Slen), I heard there was one that was about 20k but I couldn't confirm that.

does any one know whats the SG discord link for ROHENDEL
Oh I think you asked this on stream haha.
for anyone that;'s from Msia , Europe central server have about 170ms , def
is there any noticable delay when doing raids with other people?
Yay finally managed to get my acc working in sg. Is there any discord link for sg people playing?
You can join my Discord but not much chatter also hahaha.
do you need to turn on the VPN in order to play the game after downloaded it?
No need (for now) :)
@@TannaTime thanks for the info bro
Is it really better to use VPN? And what server to choose? I have exitlag.
NA West / Valtan = best SEA/OCE server. I used exitlag (from Indonesia), got 150ms
Do you maybe have an extra na/eu steam account or anyone I can ask to make some? Because ive been trying to do the way you taught in another video but been doing the captcha for like an hour now and just got tired of it, thanks!

I don't but if you don't mind paying for the subs it may be worth it but it reduces from 200 to like 170.
Imo not that big of a difference to pay for VPN to reduce ping haha.
Will all the ping be the same as long i choose NA west server ?
It should!
@@TannaTime glad to hear that! hopefully they will fix the lag asap...
is letting friend make account from different region or using vpn bannable on steam?
well its against Terms of Service but people think as long as you arent purchasing games and exploiting the different region pricing you should be fine
Yeah what moonshiry said. IMO not likely but there's always a risk in it.
should i play in US server or EU server since making US steam account is hard (cant bypass recaptcha)?
The steam account country is mostly irrelevant (of course choose a country that's available)
Just choose the server you prefer NA/EU that's all!
Do you get some big spikes of lag?
Im getting 250 consistent ping, its okay. But there's a huge spike of lag, it is so annoying
Sometimes but last night not at all during my 7hours stream! Maybe they fixed it or something recently. So far only one bad lag during a group dungeon only.
do i need vpn to play on EU servers ?
Just to create account and maybe download. No need VPN to play.
Is there an announcement that they are going to make a sea server anytime soon?
No
No news yet that's why many players just get in now on launch.
i used my sg account to download with vpn...xD...
no vpn required to download or play the game
Well …I should have watched your guide before I started my account on SA…
I’m gonna play on Rogendel since most of you will be playing if the other one is full
Thanks for the guide and cheers from M’sia ✌🏼
Haha it's ok man we're still early hope you're having fun on the new server now! :D
