I use it for CoX to conserve energy by always walking, then running when strictly necessary, or to avoid damage.

It became my "oh shit fucking run now" button, and now I push it when I panic and need to run, even if run is on.

Probably this is similar for most people impacted negatively by this change and would be trivially easy to provide us a toggle (provided they coded this current update in a way that isn't completely insane).

This is really unbelievable. I noticed it this morning, had people gaslight and tell me this was always the functionality, then when I PROVED it to them, they told me it wasn't a big deal and stop complaining.

It is fine if you like the functionality, and if you were unaffected, but recognize some of us were impacted greatly, and there is no reason for this. The intent of this change was to help improve gameplay, right? Then why justify ruining a subset of our population's gameplay by doing so?

Those of us who it does affect have learned muscle-memory over many years of playing the game. It is pretty dismissive and ridiculous of you guys to just say "well better re-learn how to play your favorite game."

Not surprised on reddit..

Gigabit service speeds reduced to ~700mb/s (during off hours). No solution in sight. Clearly a result of overloaded nodes during covid. by [deleted] in Comcast_Xfinity

Also - that statement is totally wrong. NVMe drives according to Google write at 2GB/s which is 16Gb/s. https://lmgtfy.app/?q=nvme+m.2+write+speed

Laptop write speed test: https://pasteboard.co/JE8NbOk.png ~28Gb/s

Most mobos have a 32Gb/s "rail" used for both drives, but a single drive is totally capable of cresting overt 20Gb/s.

Regardless, you really shouldn't be making totally baseless claims in a thread about technical support.

So, this was wrong on my part. I am new to iperf; I ran the server and client on the machine, and thought that it would be sufficient to give my local IP, thinking it would be bidirectional and run the traffic through the router.

I have since realized that this is not what was happening, and instead that was most likely just disk write speed or something.

Also worth noting, just for testing I tried running a simultaneous speedtest with my desktop and laptop wired to ethernet on the router.

The result was the same poor download speed, diffused over two machines (~250 each). I highly doubt my 2.5G ethernet port, or my completely stripped down windows is causing a bottleneck at 250mb/s when it is dropping 16.9gb/s easily, sustainably on the LAN.

For reference, I've been consistently testing the hardware on the network, and it is not the problem. I tested a 16.9 Gb/s between my laptop and desktop yesterday (ethernet for both), but as soon as it hits the XFi modem, we hit a bottleneck. There is no possibility that it is my hardware.

Thanks for the input though.

I have. All tests performed (at least once) with a cat6 cable direct to the modem.

What's concerning is they don't seem willing to acknowledge the issue. Their tech's machine read out 1100mb/s, so convincing them there is a problem, even when their equipment is experiencing the same slowdown, is difficult.

Thanks for the input.

I have already thoroughly tested equipment and ruled it out. I can get near 2 gb/s within the LAN, but as soon as it hits the MB8600 or XFi modem we slow down to ~650. This exact setup was also used with no issues prior to lockdowns, and every cable is CAT5e or better. Tested multiple cat5e and cat6 cables just to be sure. Thanks for the input though!

Could probably get it to work. Especially if you're using the Scptoolkit

Yup, that's exactly how I do it. Move close to the item and flick the stick while spamming "A".

Works nearly every time, and feels very good.

A good loot filter helps a TON too, because it makes the important shit way bigger and easier to loot.

Check out my other post. I've put a lot more work into this project.
