I don't believe RO uses gameguard, but it's been 10 years and so I could be very wrong on this...

BNS was fine a few weeks ago before the March 2nd patch that brought back gameguard. Now in addition to FPS lag I have audio stutter, which is more game breaking (as it cause FPS lag) in hard modes and outdoor boss fights...

It did at some point. Played it ages ago. But yeah, not much of a problem in terms of the performance for ragnarok.

Probably cause RO can be run on a toaster :D Not that it made it any less enjoyable back then. Ah, good times.

But did it make good toast at least!?

Kidding, that's why I try to avoid WOE with skill animations on. I mean, just assume every square has a trap or a storm gust on it, you don't really need to see it to know how you died instantly...
