Half the raid was rubber banding and half were fine, upon investigation all affected players appear to be UK based.
Spoke to several other UK players who are friends and they say the same, its unplayable.
Anyone else from the UK getting lag spikes like crazy? if so what ISP are you on?

Just logged on and does seem to be a little extra slow loading up, lagging a bit too but can’t guarantee it isn’t something my end
I’m on NowTV broadband which is done through Sky, I do believe Sky has been having issues recently but can’t see anything specific for today.
UK here, ‘World MS’ is sitting at a constant 240-400 while my ‘Home MS’ is 15. Not sure exactly what is going on but I barely scraped through two visions and have decided to just stop playing for the day until it clears up.
A quick note: I’ve never had latency issues during this patch. Lagging in that Vision made me far angrier than when I lagged during Mage Tower trials and now understand completely why people hate the vials, even if visions still feel pretty easy with upgrades.

I’m from the UK and I had a couple of small spikes to start with when doing some Order Hall stuff and getting BFA stuff started, then when returning to Boralus from Stormsong Valley had a massive lag spike that caused the world to not load in properly and was just some huge holey mess even the minimap was chopped and unloaded in parts

Boris is busy with his new baby, he will be back in two weeks…
It’s been fine for me today but I had fun trying to play with 5-7 seconds of latency earlier in the week.
Also, try reporting problems here:
Just logged in to check how things are and it’s all gone a bit Pete Tong. I can barely even shell game.

I’m finding the game is unusually laggy today and not just in the more populated areas either.
Starter zones and low level zones I’m getting the same lag in too.
I’m also from the UK.

yeah considering the raid had to disband because more than 20 people were unable to play, i assume they must know about it and are fixing it. general chat is just filled with UK people complaining about ping and world ms xDDD - I sure as hell hope they have external monitoring, and if they do, they will be seeing lots of red lines

Agreed - UK here too - very laggy and gluey when interacting with things.

It’s not just the UK
You can contribute here if you are suffering. I have given up trying to play for now, even the shell game can’t cope.

The shell game was going all exorcist on me and the shells would spin all the way around or they didn’t react at all for ages.
I did my Tort emissary on main and logged out, I daren’t touch any content when it’s like this.

Just don’t try the /salute the guard holiday event, results are deffo unexpected
Sky, Virgin, BT, they’ve all been having issues.
I’ve been having issues with Sure, but that’s because Sure is as reliable as a spoon with a hole in it.

UK here (Virgin Media Broadband) getting world ping in the 20’s. Virgin media did have a full outage the other day, Maybe it is all related.
Been on since 7am UK time, done visions, raid and an M+ not had any issues. My ping is a little higher than usual, it is normally in the teens.
It’s no just UK. Lagging massively here in Ireland. Did almost full Nylotha raid with constant latency issues.

Sky service.
I was farming, rep quests in Suramar and was lagging as hell.
Cheers.
