SOMETHING has had to have changed on ZOS's end in the past 10 days or so. Certainly the server lag was never good but there was always at least a good reason for the latency (100's of people on screen). Now I am getting latency spikes of between 500 and 12000 ms in an EMPTY PvE zone. The spikes seems to occur randomly and last for about 2-5 minutes. Then latency goes back to under 100ms for a few minutes.... Then another spike.
By latency I mean my FPS is fine, I click a skill and see it go off 5 seconds later and wykkeds display says 5000 latency. Yes I restarted my router/dsl. Yes I removed all addons etc etc etc
Game is basically unplayable at least for me.
