Server Lag since launch of TWW

[Lyconian-argent-dawn]

Hello!

Since starting to play TWW about 1,5 weeks ago, I have some pretty big server lag.
Server lag as in; everything freezes except for my character, meaning I can move and look around, but thats it. Cant use any abilities or spells. If I do actually click anything during these spikes, they do get registered, as they all pop off as soon as the server catches up.

These spikes last everywhere from 3-15 seconds and occur just about every 2-5 mins and they appear as abruptly as they stop.
I have checked my MS/ping during these spikes and its perfect and does not spike up in any way.
Time of day or where I am in WoW does not matter, still an issue.

-I have done the following;
“Repaired” WoW.
Re-installed WoW.
Reset my internet.
Tried to set every graphic setting to low.
Shut off all my addons.
Tried a ton of different settings.

Its really killing my fun.

Any help appreciated.

Hello
a have same problem, but looks like no one is fixing it

[Veganice-twisting-nether]

Are you by any chance from Denmark? Sounds like same problem all my friends from Denmark has been having.

[Balthazhar-firemaw]

May be a conicidence, but danish fellow here, having same issue

[Derpkitty-draenor]

Does Blizzard still have some public information on server you can tracert to or ping to, to check response times?

[Veganice-twisting-nether]

You probably have Norlys aswell. There is some issue with Blizzard and the biggest danish internet provider atm. Its horrible. Norlys says its not on their end, so idk what to do. It is happening to so many danes. All my friends are lagging like crazy.

I have same issue and it’s exactly since Thursday. I had no issues before that. Now I spike to 2k world ms (17home ms). I’m really bummed out, I had so much fun and now I can’t do any instanced content…

Worst thing is I had same problem after some patch in BFA and I just stopped playing. It was all fine during Shadowlands and DF untill this Thursday.
I live in Poland and have 900/900 Mb/s connection. I don’t have problems with other games outside bnet.

I’m from Hungary and having same issue since Thursday/Friday as well. Never had any connection issues before. Having such problem only with Blizzard products - WoW, HS, battle.net launcher. It drops connection like for 20 seconds, randomly any time of day.

Hey. The issue is on Blizzard’s end - and the problem has been known since February. This entire half-year they’ve refused to admit there’s an issue, take any action to fix it, or even reply to a single of dozens threads reporting this. S-tier company as usual.

The actual issue (faulty node on Blizzard’s end) is visible on the screenshot here:

We need this fixed (absurd latency spikes)

I’m so tired describing the issue all over again is each of the several tickets and forum posts… but S1 starts tomorrow, and we’re still in the latency spike limbo: https://i.imgur.com/AOmToyC.png The issue is clearly on Blizzard’s end (as seen above), this very problem has existed since February of this year (linking my thread from back then), and it makes playing anything even remotely competitive impossible: spikes happen every several minutes and if you get it during an m+ key, it’s basica…

And you can see the issue being “a thing” on Feb 17 already (same root of the issue):

Huge latency spikes every several minutes

Hi! I’m about to just give up and stop playing, but I’ll try asking: since early January, every 30-40 minutes I get a huge latency spike (up to 6000 ms), which subsides after 10-15 seconds. The game requires a restart then, and the key is ruined. This happens only in WoW, everything else works normally - and I’ve tried close to everything at this point: my ISP replaced all cabling, swapped a router, and they tried reconfiguring to a few different settings, tried it via wi-fi (I normally use wi…

Just Blizzard things. Live and suffer lol.

Having the same issue

based in the UK

Game is unplayable with even 1 addon

[Barkskinned-burning-legion]

Same issue here. These problems started for me a week ago

[Bandana-the-maelstrom]

Hi
same problem here tried every fix online, it ruins all the fun…
HELP!!!

[Hyperracc-kazzak]

The game is unplayable as of right now.

[Reapermonk-draenor]

same for me about 1.5 weeks ago it started to get unplayable with the lag, especially at the evenings, it can seem on for a min or 2 and acts up again, i cant do anything just as the season starts i had to sit out on raid prog and keys coz of this

Edit: i have also tried to use my phone internet with usb tethering and still had the same lag
and tried a different game and had no issues

Edit 2: trying a VPN connecting to Germany atm and so far no lag with that

[Кеттарол-howling-fjord]

Still not even a single reply, lmao.
Btw today it worked perfectly fine until 18 PM CET, then disconnects begin.

[Deed-silvermoon]

I too have this issue.

Usually happens in dungeons but in open world too.

Game freezes but not in graphical way, just like my latency just went to million and my abilities do not work.

I can type in /s or guild chat and everyone can see my messeges but I cannot act in any way in game.

[Worldguard-twisting-nether (Worldguard)]

I also have this issue, along with guildies of mine who also is from Denmark using Norlys.
It sucks, cuz it affects us as a guild, that we lose a couple pulls each night due to us lagging out. Its not just frustrating for us whos affected, but also the guild as a whole.

[Pustyitlusty-burning-legion]

Anyone found solution without exitlag/Vpn? I bought game, im paying subscription, i will not pay another to be able to play…

[Numerodos-firemaw]

Same here, posting in hopes of a blizzard employee fix
