Im looking for a way to reduce latency but without any trade-offs where people tell you disable this and that and then you end up screwing up something else. I'm mainly playing World of Wacraft.
My latency is around 100ms and I'd like to reduce that if it's possible.

What speed is your internet running at? You can check by running a speedtest in browser & have the game running in the background.

Or...alternatively, can you connect to a different warcraft server and try it?

Most times, game latency is server-based. If they offer extra servers to connect to it can improve the latency ms

I have had a latency problem running from my location to South East Asia server. The server latency was unusually high though to normal. I set my vpn to go through singapore server because its in SEAsis and the latency dropped by approx. half.

Did it just start happening or has it been ongoing?
