you know this is a DoSS attack on Anet. lol no wonder lag has increased during the day. lol JK... Trust me it should be around 2.7 currently. once Nightfall goes live please USE THE DVD that comes with it. it will make your GW.DAT around 3.2GB roughly 500-600MB for Nightfall content merged into your GW.dat file. Then you will NOT be pulling every map from the servers in mass quantities and making the servers Slower in the process. When its several 100 thousand downloading update streams its bad enough. lol but full dat images are horrendous...
