Retraction, no retraction, snails pace on silent mode it still does it. And I mean a snails pace. Like 40mm/s, barely moving. It's ridiculous. I have not tried a temp tower, since I am printing these single wall that probably doesn't help. I printed something on regular speed settings and it printed a larger base three layers thick just fine, it's something about the z-seam that seems to be the main point of issue.
