i mean, learn to play the game
im joking. sure connection may effect you, but, like i said, if you know what your doing, if your buying the right equipment, if your actually training etc.. you can beat most persons that have a connection advantages as they are generally hot-heads with no skills at all.

Quite frankly, elves spamming ranged at very close ranges when you're against a wall bones you horribly.
Also, regardless of which, connection also effects the available combos to you. I.E. Lightning bolt + charge. Ever notice how the most successful players on any server JUST SO HAPPENS TO BE THE ONES with the best connection? You never see a guy with 200+ ms ping on the first page of boss rush, or succeeding in duels.
3 things you need to have to be a good pvperl:
1) High ranked skills 2) Fast connection3) Common sense.
Connection takes up a huge part of duels.. Trust me.
your saying you can't charge lightning within 5 seconds? or doing a charge-2hit-lightning combo. i'm sure you can...
As for elves, im pretty sure you can single handedly duel an elf if you have the right attire, maybe throw in a little auto range defense and react by loading range in the process to kill the elf in possibly two hits.
And yes, i've seen some pretty slow people posted here

yes fast connection is a great deal, but you don't NEED it. all hope is not lost just because of a persons reaction times.

If both people know what they're doing, quite frankly, a lot of it just comes down to connection speed and luck =I

Yes, but half the time a person with faster cionnection just knows how to rely on connection, not skill

Hit them with lightning, then charge before they can recover from the stun or load a skill.
Of course you can assault them then load lightning, no problem, but it's the stun from the magic bolt to give you a clear shot at them THEN charging that is almost impossible without an above average connection. And auto defense for range can buy you ONE chance, otherwise you're suffering hits till another window opens. And even then, if you don't have the skills, you probably won't finish them in a few hits.
And even then, equipment and skill ranks won't always buy you victory. I was on my alt, who only has r1 lightning bolt in the way of skills, and the guy I was dueling had upwards of 200+ HP and heavy armor. While I had only about 80 HP and 8 defense. Although I was feeling pissy so what happened to him? Being melee oriented, I just spammed the piss out of him with lightning bolts till I won. He didn't have a good connection, so he couldn't escape it.
wouldn't it make the person that dueled you their own fault for not starting the duel next to you and not giving yo uaa chance to charge, or did you 3 hit him in the begining in the first place.
I understand what you are getting at, im just saying, it's not Impossible to win against a person that is faster than you, meaning it is possible to win either way.
Possible? Yes if they have a good connection but don't know what they're doing.
If they have a good connection and a relative understanding of fighting? You're ****.
Example: ACME in alby arena with AR loaded. You have ice bolt loaded. He'd hit you first 99.99% of the time (Somehow, even if you're running.) despite having to take the time to aim unlike you who would just have to click him. If he windmilled somebody and you walked up to windmill him after his invincibility from the windmill wore off, he'd be able to AR you before you could get that windmill off. Him vs 5 people and he was winning XD
But loading ar, whilst in windmill invincible, is a native thing, everyone should be able to do that, that just says he knows how to use that combo. As for that ice-AR ordeal, well yes, but i don't care about things that happen in alby arena :( it doesn't matter what you do, that place lags no matter what, and can never keep track of where you are inntially.
-Jean-:Not to mention whenever somebody assaults you in the beginning of the duel, regardless of distance, your connection prevents you from loading counter or defense in time, so you're left with just running at them and hoping you get a hit in.
well, i guess i do get that advantage, whenever they charge, i always am able to stun them while they are mid charge. it's strange that works that way. but honestly, does this discussion really matter, someone maybe fast,someone may be slower, it is always the case, it's like saying someone has rank 5 wm and someone has rank 1. if you want rules them help create them if you want a fair fight, tests could be taken etc.
I'm just trying to make a fun event for the server : ( if you have better idea, which i always ask, but apparently no-one does, please say them. Any event to take place, i will help in it if you need

Having seen what this game does with the net connection, the only way to get a fair duel is to have both participants fight inside one of the arenas with no other players or monsters. The Connus Arena is suitable for this. That reduces the lag whine to just the people in the arena. Anyone remember the GM event of this type? with 50 people watching? Yeah, that works against the people dueling. This game needs a "duel rules" and arena rules" before such a thing is fair. The only thing it has is a damage nerfer so a duel lasts longer than one hit.
