Check “aws test latency”, first result of Google (aws-latency-test dot com) and try doing the test a few times, what latency do you see on “Europe (Frankfurt)” ?
I can confirm from SEA that I’m getting 800ms+ more than 80% of the time, confirming whatever was said in the digitalocean tech update before / cable cut
I just tested that and my ping is around what I always had in WoW before last week: 250-350 ms. So this actually prove that it is not related!
Same trable
ping spikes 200+ lags lags
Since the release of pandarian i finally decided today that i would come back and see what has happened to this game… I wish ive read this before because its impossible to play. I just wanted to sit back and relax with a couple of beers and level a char…
From earlier https://youtu.be/EnatSkLWJo8
… 33000 ping, doesn’t look sorted… all the action starts 33 seconds in to the video…that longboi can certainly move…
To re-iterate, its not happening on any BF title, Steam games are fine, just WoW is affected, I haven’t bothered with any other activision title.
For me its fixed, 2 days ago , i forgot to update. Now my connection from Philippines is back to normal.
the issue still not fixed more than a week for now in Thailand…
for me now its up to 400-450 ms, from 250 ms. I donno why its changing everyday. Might be some issues somewhere around. The trace route shows 260 ms but PH>SG>Frankfurt so why in the game i have 450ms when my laptop is Nitro 5 AN515-46-R3BB where i can literally go ultra settings with no problem. On speed test i get over 500 mb dl and upload on WIFI6
Issue is now ten times worse today.
Is anyone else finding that zoning into instances/flying into a different zone seems to trigger this to happen? Because I’m finding that it’s not all the time - I can literally sit and quest in one zone for several hours with no issues, but as soon as I try running some dungeons it’s impossible.
Its instanced stuff in general im getting the issue trying to play random bgs or skirmishes
Ive lost a lobby in solo shuffle on my druid due to the lag.
This is terrible, I hope that it’s fixed soon… I also tried doing incursions today on SoD and it was okay for a short period, and it started lagging again, so I had to quit.
Getting up to 20000 world ping from Japan to EU servers, right now.
Problem appears to get worse the more players that are interacting with things nearby, combat etc.
Dungeons are completely unplayable with 1000 ping with 2 players and 10000+ ping with 5 players.
Have tried everything in an attempt to fix the issue, other than trying a VPN.
Including changing routers, changing devices, changing internet ISP, clearing wow cache, clearing battlenet cache, reinstalling wow and battlenet, ipconfig release, renew, flushdns, allowing in firewall, disabling firewall, checking antiviruses, shutting down all other applications including battlenet launcher.
It’s very clear that this is an issue somewhere between the Blizzard server in EU and outside of EU, most likely incoming traffic from Asia.
Speculation:
This could be related to the Yemen conflict, cutting internet cables between EU and Asia region, 4 cables were cut in March, disrupting ~25% of internet traffic between the regions. Doubt Blizzard could do anything about that to be honest.

On pingplotter few days ago it shows that my route is Philippines > Singapore > Frankfurt, now it seems to be this route with "PH>SG> saint-denis (which i dont even know where it is) even if my MS shows an average of 350, which is bigger than previews season where i had 250-270 ms, ingame it shows i have over 1000 ms most of the times. Sometimes reaching 10k
Server: Turalyon.
Country: Vietnam
ISP: VNPT
Still having high latency, reaching 700-1000 world ms & 200-700 home ms in Dragon Isles & 1000-16000 world ms & 200-700 home ms in Valdrakken / any instance group. Used to be much worse but can’t do the main things I want to play (M+ / Raid, etc.).
Haven’t been able to play since Wednesday. Can play in legacy islands (e.g. Broken Isles).
Tried all of the recommended actions to fix it myself but no luck.
Hope this issue gets fixed soon.
Update: game is still unplayable!
Having the same issue today but its way less obnoxious, its way less than 10k ping for me today, i could actually even play with it but its still around 400-500 which is noticable especially in pvp.
Just logged in now to check the latency and i have 17108 MS
BLIZZARD PLEASE CHECK SCREENSHOT ----> 5:40 PM SERVER TIME , i replaced . with “dot”
ibb(dot)co/f4SMCQG
Any updates? it seems our issue is not solved over more than 1 week.
Also why my route now has changed. It was PH>SG>Frankfurt , but now its PH>SG>SAINT DENIS, probably FRANCE by google maps
I’m guessing this might be the reason, not 100% sure , i saw it yesterday. I’m guessing anyone on this route is affected.

Can Blizzard confirm? I’m guessing the other games i play have another route to connect and that’s why WoW is the only game i have this issue with.
Hello, i have same issues. when i join cross realm group and step in dungeon world ms going high and it becomes unplayable.
