ExitLag Setup Guide

ExitLag is a network optimization service that can significantly improve your connection to Dragon Crusade servers. This guide walks you through setup and configuration.

What is ExitLag?

ExitLag is a proprietary technology that optimizes data routing by mapping out various routes between your computer and the game server. It maintains stable connections by automatically routing data through optimal pathways, reducing:

  • Ping/latency - Faster response times
  • Packet loss - More stable connections
  • Disconnections - Fewer random disconnects
  • Lag spikes - Smoother gameplay
Who Needs ExitLag?

ExitLag is most beneficial for players located far from the game server or experiencing unstable internet connections. Players with already good ping may see minimal improvement.
