    I seen a lot go mix of them that play high ping due to the fact they can not use Flame Barrage. Most will say it allows them to feel like the game play is smoother and played next to a couple that did very using this combo at high pings.
  • I think, for high ping players, using flame barrage isn't good idea in first place.
    I'd rather still stick with keen option until total crit = 300.

    300crit with glyph or without? the glyph gives 50crit factor

    Total crit = 300. If there is mystic, then you can switch some crystal and make about 300 crit.

    Ktera player use double attack speed etching for casting 3x meteor during mana boost. For high ping players it's better to use Keen etching than attack speed. High ping player can't use full advantages of high attack speed as low ping players.

    High ping players have disadvantage with slower skill charging time, slow attack speed, slow block/ canceling skill, slow shooting speed, slow shooting lock skill, slow reaction time.

    So, lancer, berserker, archer and gunner without macro is not friendly class for high ping players.

    Depending on ping the attack speed/cdr isn't as helpful since you won't be able to take full advantage of it. You can also do triple meteor and triple arcane with no energetic, as the cdr from weapon is enough. Just depends on whether the boss moves around, which energetic won't realistically help with that.
  • You can do triple arcane and triple meteor whitout energetic etching (mixed or both)
    Atack speed helps a bit over high ping players. But in case sourcer you cant spell somes skills like a flaming barriage( or others lock on spells )
    By the way. Cd stat from energetic is uselles for high ping sourcers because weapon rolled is enough
    Go for keen. And the crit factor from glyps are a chance, like a keen virsk.
    By the way , test about 9% or 4.5 % atack speed in weapon roll. Maybe this help you ( im guess you have a 2.5 roll in slevess )

    I tried with temporary energetic etching on both weapon and glove, it doesn't really help much..probably will try with lein root beer.

    Im going to guess you have to be Elin to pull this off as its impossible on a Castanic. If I have AR from a lancer I may get a third arcane off MAY but it is very rare for a Castanic.

    Im going to guess you have to be Elin to pull this off as its impossible on a Castanic, over looking Yosha Sorc Stuff as well they pretty much go over its not possible with just CDR on weapon.

    I am an Elin and yes I can do triple meteor and arcane pulse with just cdr roll on weapon + lein dark root beer, without root beer....manaboost will gone off when you are casting meteor strike.
