Let us start by saying we on the Shadowbane Team are very much aware of the recent performances issues many people have been experiencing. Please be assured that the Development Team has been burning the midnight oil to remedy these issues and we will continue this pace until we can resolve them. Shortly, we will be updating the Test Server with a new build that we believe will rectify these issues. We ask that members of our community help us evaluate this new version by logging onto the Test Server and simply playing the game (do note that Test used excelerated Experience and Gold Rules). If you would be interested in helping us, please read The Shadowbane Test Server Guide. Thank you very much for your support and understanding.
