Azwan causes me ridiculous amounts of lag.

Biggest lag problem I have with Azwan is that it sends you to whatever channel it wants - and many of them are crowded.
Crowds lag me, even if the people aren't spamming their flashy skills (fat chance).
Once I manage to get into the solo or party map, I'm ok, although I can see it being a problem for older comps because of the large number of enemies and allies running around.
Is that what you're having?

I wish. It's the Azman fight map itself that's causing me lag. I tried doing Solo Defend since I heard it was the easiest but it just lagged ridiculous amounts, then disconnected me after I destroyed the first Ballista.
