Glorious Alpha Two Testers!

We are in the Alpha Two Phase II testing which will take place 5+ days each week.

Alpha Two testing is scheduled to happen daily until January 13, 2025 at 10PM PT. We will have periods of downtime for hotfixes and daily restarts happening at 2 AM PT for NA realms, and 2 CET for EU realms.

Starting next week, Alpha Two realms are scheduled to be online for 5+ days a week from Thursdays at 10 AM PT to Mondays at 10 PM PT. Alpha Two realms are planned to be down on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, and for daily restarts. Alpha Two realms will also be brought down as updates and fixes are ready.

You can download the game launcher here and we encourage you to join us on our Official Discord Server for the most up to date testing news.

Combo System and latency

So I am quite interested in the combo system. The only problem is, the windows where you are able to use these combos.
How will my latency effect these windows.
Let's say, that my internet in not the best one.
So what happens it I have a 120ms latency (should be the worst case), can I still use the combo windows, or with this much latency, will I only have the fraction of the time that was originally intended for the combo window?

    The combat system can be aware of your average latency and compensate for it by adding in a time buffer. This of course can be gamed by lag switches, but there are security systems that can detect that also. The bottom line with action combat however is you need to have a good low latency connection to be the most effective.
