AoxVPN Gaming Test: Reducing Genshin Impact Latency to 30 ms

# AoxVPN game acceleration test: Genshin Impact dropped to 30ms

As a social beast who can't stop playing Genshin Impact every night, the delay can really make people collapse. Especially when Zhou Ben is online, you only see the red circle after all the boss skills are used up, and you directly rise to the sky - that feeling of powerlessness, veteran players all know it.

Someone in the group used Amway AoxVPN a while ago and said it worked well. I was dubious at first. After all, I have used a lot of accelerators on the market, and there are too many hypes about them. But I couldn’t stand being stuck every day, so I just went to the AoxVPN official website and downloaded a trial version to try.

My environment and testing methods

Let me talk about my situation first, otherwise I would take a white test: I am located in Shenzhen, China Telecom broadband is 200M, and the latency of the naked Asian server Genshin Impact jumps repeatedly between 80-150ms at ordinary times, and can reach 200ms+ during peak hours on weekends and nights. My mobile phone is Xiaomi 14, and I occasionally use iPad to play.

The test method is clumsy but practical - in the same time period and the same task, test once before and after turning on the accelerator, and take screenshots to record the delay data. Measurements were taken three nights in a row and the average was taken.

Genshin Impact: From stuck into PPT to silky smooth combos

Let’s put the data directly, this is what everyone is most concerned about:

| Scenario | Naked connection delay | AoxVPN delay | Decline | |------|---------|--------------|------| | Daily body cleansing (Asian server) | 95ms | 32ms | About 66% | | 4 people online this week | 140ms | 35ms | About 75% | | Abyss Star Dash | 110ms | 28ms | About 75% | | Mobile network (4G) | 180ms | 48ms | About 73% |

To be honest, I was stunned when I saw the 28ms of Abyss. It was lower than I expected. In the past, the best performance of using another accelerator was about 55ms. AoxVPN’s performance is really something.

The most obvious change in physical sense is the response speed of Abyss's switching skills. In the past, sometimes there would be a delay of about half a second when cutting people, causing the output method to be unable to connect. Now it is basically to hit where you want. Playing Zhou Ben online is no longer the awkward situation of "watching my teammates finish beating me before I move".

Node selection is a bit tricky

AoxVPN doesn’t have many nodes, but its coverage is pretty good, and it’s available in Asian, American, and European servers. The key is that it has an intelligent recommendation function that automatically selects the best node based on your current network conditions.

However, according to my actual measurement, intelligent recommendations are accurate in about 80% of cases, and the remaining 20% ​​require manual adjustment. Let me briefly mention some of my experiences:

• Genshin Impact Asia Server: Select Japan node or Hong Kong node, do not select Singapore. After testing it several times, Japan has the lowest node latency and is the most stable, followed by Hong Kong, and Singapore is worse than naked connection (I don’t know if it’s a problem with my telecommunications line)
• Genshin Impact: The node in the western United States is faster than that in the eastern United States. The physical distance is there. There is nothing to say.
• Mobile version: If you use 4G to play, remember to switch to the mobile exclusive line. This can be found in the settings. It seems to be turned off by default.

Another tip: during peak hours (8-11 p.m.), if the latency of the automatically allocated node suddenly becomes high, manually changing to an alternative node in the same region can often solve the problem. I guess the popular node is crowded, so switching to an unpopular one will make things smoother.

Not just Genshin Impact, other games have also been tested

Just testing Genshin Impact is not comprehensive enough, so I also tested a few commonly played games:

Apex Legends (PC version) It takes about 70-90ms on the naked Asian server. After turning on AoxVPN, it stabilizes at 25-35ms. Shooting games are more sensitive to latency, and the gap of more than 30 ms is very obvious when shooting guns. In the past, there were many scenes where "I obviously fired first", but now there are much less.

Valorant (PC version) This game itself is better optimized for the network, and the connection time for the naked Asian server is about 50-60ms. After using the accelerator, the speed is reduced to just over 20ms. The physical improvement is not as exaggerated as Apex, but the skill connection is indeed smoother.

Honkai Impact: Stardome Railway (mobile version) Turn-based games are not so sensitive to delays, but they will still get stuck when simulating the universe online. The naked connection takes about 100ms, and after acceleration, it takes about 40ms. The round switching is obviously faster, and there is no need to stare at the circle and wait for a long time.

Overall, AoxVPN improves games with high real-time requirements even more, with shooting and action categories being the biggest beneficiaries. The turn-based system is also improved, but not as explosive.

How is the stability?

Many people are concerned about whether the accelerator is stable and whether it will suddenly disconnect while driving. I have been using it for more than a week, and there was only one disconnection and reconnection, and it automatically recovered in about 3 seconds. Compared with a certain accelerator I used before that was disconnected every three days, this stability is pretty good.

There is another detail - AoxVPN's official website states that it supports multiple devices online at the same time. I tried using my mobile phone and computer at the same time, and the delay did not change significantly. This is more generous than many accelerators that limit a single device.

Let’s talk about a few small shortcomings

The actual test is the actual test, and it is not without its shortcomings:

1. The number of nodes is still less than that of leading companies, and servers for niche games may not be able to cover it. 2. The free trial is short, only a few hours, which is not enough for a full experience. 3. It would be nice if the client interface could look better. The current style is a bit...simple.

However, the core functions-acceleration effect and stability-are standing, and the others are just icing on the cake.

Finally, summarize

If you are a deep Genshin Impact player like me and suffer from delays every day, AoxVPN is worth a try. The actual measured latency of Genshin Impact has been reduced from three digits to about 30ms. This data is very impressive for a product in the same price range. Other games have also been improved to varying degrees, especially shooting games like Apex, which are extremely sensitive to latency.

It is recommended to go directly to the AoxVPN official website to download the trial version and run the data yourself. After all, everyone’s region and network environment are different, and my data is for reference only. Anyway, it’s free, so you won’t lose money if you try it.
