Does using vpn reduces ping spikes? My ping is constant to yellow ping 301-600 and is it fine to use vpn because I've read some thread, and saw futumsh suggesting to use vpn. Thanks for the reply

To clarify, playing over VPN is fine, but doing plat offers over VPN is not allowed. If you do plat offers, make sure you turn the VPN off first.

Whether it helps ping spikes or not depends on what's causing the spikes, where the VPN endpoint is, etc. If it's network congestion or corruption issues someplace, using a VPN may route around it, or may have quicker recovery, if it's not too far out of the way but still avoids the problem areas.
