VPN for Tree of Savior

General Discussion
#1

I have been looking for ways to improve my ping so that I can properly play ToS. Is there any recommendations for any VPNs that I can try out or any ways to reduce lag?

Also, I’m not really sure with WTFast. Checked reviews of it, saying its bad. but others said that it worked pretty well. Either way, probably not going to use it. So any other suggestions pls?

#2

The Steam version will most likely have servers located in at least 3 different locations. For someone who lives in the UK, your ping should be good enough without a VPN on the US East Coast server (Or if you’re lucky, one based in Europe).

Otherwise, try SoftEther VPN.

You’ll be suprised that I am suffering from 200ms. But thanks. I do hope that there’s one in Europe, or this game isn’t exactly international.

Also, in the future when the iOBT release date comes out. I’ll probably ask you how to use this.

How would you use that program for kToS for example?

Well… Welcome to the next gen gaming. Where Graphics mean everything, Pre-ordering is law, Pay more money for the fun and we still fall for it every single time.

And TOS successfully disregards those laws.

Are you sure you are waiting for the right game?

#9

I know about that but that’s not exactly the main reason why I played this game. Rather it’s the class system and hidden stuff.

Anyway, Can we not deviate from the main purpose of this post.

Which means those things aren’t everything even for you. You still can be saved.

I would advise against doing that, because:

  • Foreigners playing on the KTos servers using VPN’s have reported that their account was marked for re-verification (via cellphone) after changing their IP often via the VPN they were using. You can only complete the verification if you or a friend are the owner of the account.

Also note that Steam is against the use of a VPN (Stated in their ToS), though this is vague when it comes to MMO’s.

Also also note that a VPN isn’t guaranteed to reduce latency, even if you’re paying for one.

Anyways:

  1. Download the latest version of SoftEther VPN Client here: http://www.vpngate.net/en/download.aspx and select the “Download SoftEther VPN Client + VPN Gate Client Plugin” option.
  2. Extract all files into one folder, and run the installer. Run the Client Manager after it is successfully installed and on the menu bar, go to [Virtual Adapter -> New Virtual Network Adapter].

  3. Name the Virtual Network Adapter whatever you want.
  4. After the process is finished, go to “VPN Gate Public VPN Relay Servers”, select a Server located in the Region you are trying to connect to, and click [Connect to the VPN Server] at the bottom.

  5. Click [Agree], then select “Use TCP Protocol” and click [OK].
  6. Launch the game client.

Ill follow you in not using it in kTos, but for iTos ill need to know hehe. Thanks a lot for the walkthrough

You went to “Add VPN Connection”. Go to [Virtual Adapter] and then “New Virtual Network Adapter”:

Or you could just do “CTRL+L” on your keyboard.

Thats what I did… the Ctrl+L one…

#16

The initial link I gave you might have not had the plugin files for the VPN Gate option, so I replaced Step 1 & 2. Download the .zip install on the website (vpngate-client-2016.03.07-build-9605.134937.zip) and try re-doing Step 1-3 and the VPN Gate option should appear now.

#17

If i use this VPN will i get banned ?

#18

It’s against Steams Terms of Service to use a VPN for anything, even if you’re doing nothing but staring at your Library while it’s running. So yes, it’s possible to get banned, but unlikely because they don’t enforce it in that manner.

The one thing you shouldn’t do while using a VPN on Steam is purchase from their store. If you’re going to buy something on Steam (This does not include buying things in-game from the TP Shop), then make sure to turn the VPN off first.

#19

If i really have to use VPN, what should i do ?

#20

The instructions are in the posts above. Just turn the VPN off before you buy anything from the Steam Store.
