Just now we had 15 seconds of 999+ latency, unable to change maps or travel and then half of my guild and friends disconnected.

VileDeeds77✭✭✭Does the servers have firewalls? Or other security measures, if these are actually DDOS attacks and not severe server stability issues, because if they are indeed attacks they seem to be able to cause havoc at will and we just have to suffer....0 -
JasonSilverSpring✭✭✭✭✭They said the issues over the weekend were due to a DDOS attack. I have not seen a confirmation that they are continuing but suspect they are.0 -

Between Friday and Sunday, the North American ESO megaservers suffered intermittent DDOS attacks. While brief, the attacks caused disruptions in connectivity and ability to log into ESO on the affected servers at different points over the weekend. We also discovered an unrelated technical issue with the Xbox One North American server on Sunday (Jan. 15) that resulted in login errors and inability to connect to the game.
We worked through the weekend to mitigate the DDOS attacks and resolved the Xbox One technical issues – thank you all for your patience.Edited by alephthiago on 19 January 2017 19:58Walks-in-Shadowss AD Magblade

It can help mitigate some of the impact by dropping packets before they reach the servers but it won't eliminate all DDoS traffic.
If done correctly, one can still overwhelm firewalls, mask traffic as legit packets and generally successfully interrupt service.

I've been on the receiving end of massive DDoS attacks and spent many sleepless nights trying to fight them off.
There are many things one can do in response but if you are the target of a massive, coordinated attack, your servers and their availability will be impacted. There's just no way around that ...
