Insane Lag, Not Being Able to Do Anything In game

There has been insane lag on Tarren Mill for the last hour, crafting orders not going through, AH not working, I cannot even mount up. Is there anyone able to play the game at the moment? It’s the worst it’s been since the “little mistake” that went on in December and the game was unplayable for 4 hours.

[2024/01/03] Game is lagging horribly

Hey all, Thanks for the report, we’re looking into it at the moment.
