I have no big problems either. I added more memory to my PC and it made a world of difference.

yep, worse performance in all zones so far during this event. Ping spikes and rubber banding like crazy today.

No issues PC NA this morning.

Good for you. You're the lucky exception this time.

I have 32 gig ram and it's high performance Kingston Fury, so ram has nothing what so ever to do with lag unless you're running 8gig or something along those lines.

Again today, I had no issues on either server. I'm generally convinced that my particular version of "potato internet" (HughesNet satellite) prevents a lot of issues, simply because so few others are routed the way I am....

No issues on PS/NA yesterday evening prime time. Lots of players around the quest givers, but no noticeable lag. Travel to Snow Globe house and from the Kynesgrove wayshrine was fine.

There are certain people posting here who never seem to have performance issues. They also tend to be first in line to suggest (either outright or indirectly) that anyone having issues must have inadequate / faulty hardware or a subpar ISP…

I've noticed that. It's so close to gaslighting and irritating. If I knew how to block people on these forums, I would block them.

I never inferred that it was a memory problem for anyone other then myself.
For me, yes, more memory fixed my problem.

I really don't understand why they don't have Breda in all main alliance zones.

They put her in the most winter holiday looking zone and called it a day.

I can't try yet but I never have issues with events since I went from PS4 to PS5. Before that I usually didn't crash but I did experience a lot of long loading screens and models taking forever to load in even out of the loading screen.

I'm not in the US, and am probably further from the NA servers than many people who play on them (northwestern Canada). It's either a routing issue (including aspects you have no control over) or a hardware issue (doubtful) or an instance/sharding issue (decent chance this is a big part of the issue).

I don't usually have issues personally, it's true, but we had mass disconnects in my raids last week so it's not like I don't think they're happening. And I'm not about to claim 5 different people are all running the exact same add-on config/hardware/ISP.

I only post so people know it's not a universal problem, so they're not dissuaded from at least trying to log in and play.

All servers appear to be up and yet I'm completely unable to login. NOTHING IS WRONG WITH MY INTERNET. I can play ANY other online game JUST FINE aka Elite Dangerous, GTAO, F76 etc. etc. and yet NOT THIS ONE. WHY?

I'm on NA and was able to login 10 mins ago in Summerset. Was trying to do my crafting dallies when server disconnected me so no where near the festival zone in Eastmarch.

I've been completely unable to connect since and likely going to miss out on earning the 3 tickets and endeavors that I critically need to earn before the server day ends. So once again, I've gotten shafted and sabotaged in trying to successfully grind to earn the damned rewards for this seasonal event.

I noticed there are no disclaimer signs about server outage issues on the forum. So how are players supposed to open a ticket for an allegedly non existent issue like this???

WHY does ZoS insist on making my life such hell?

Another issue are the excessive loading times I get everytime an event is there...

It's not just Breda's location. If you also have the misfortune to own the player snow globe house like me, then you're pretty much royally screwed trying to login direct into that area.
