    First, is this PC? You said EU server but I don't want to assume.

    Second are you using ANY addons?

    Third, does the ping start at character load and then dissipate or does it start and stay?

    Fourth, what is your FPS with the ping?

    EU, PC, FPS is still arround 59-60. it isnt laggy while loading character - the ping happens every 1-2min it raises up to 3000+ then few seconds all good.. then again big lagg and freeze screen for 15-20sec.. etc.

    Well you are having almost the same situation as I.

    I get immediate 999+ ping at every character load, but my ping then dissipates and does not sustain as long as I am on that character and do not reloadui or change char.

    I also maintain anywhere from lower (playable) to max FPS (110hz monitor) while the ping issue exists.

    This ping does NOT manifest if I have NO addons installed. There are still some addons or some combination of addons and the recent IC patch changes to the client-server connections or handling of addon LUA processes that is causing this new issue.

    If you have any addons try totally removing them (rename Addons and SavedVariables folders) and see if the problem persists.

    If it goes away, then you are with the rest of us at the mercy of ZOS determining what change they made that is causing this and hopefully either fixing it on their end or giving Addon developers more data/tools to allow addons to function again without this conflict.

    Same issue here. Since yesterday, around 4pm i can't do anything ingame except chatting properly. Using skills or doing anything fun is not working because ping jumps around 100-999ms all the time. Getting kicked out (freezes) aswell.

    I have the same problem with ping spikes and disconnects.

    I did ping the server 100 times and had a packet loss of ~20%.

    The I did a trace and found this:


    Tracing route to 159.100.232.122 over a maximum of 30 hops

    1 <1 ms <1 ms <1 ms fritz.box [192.168.1.1]

    9 11 ms 12 ms * 159.100.232.122
    10 * 13 ms 9 ms 159.100.232.122

    Seems there is a problem with packages going via lag-10.ear1.Frankfurt.Level3.net [4.68.62.237].
    This latency goes higher during prime times. However, it goes down again after 10pm.
    However, even when the latency is back to ~10ms, the packet loss is still high at ~7-10%.

    I'm on NA server (playing from Germany, though), and yesterday was the first time I even checked the ping, so I don't know what's standard/average to be considered normal.
    The ping was at 200 yesterday most of the time and went up to 999 every now and then. I've only let the game display the ping on screen because every single thing I did (skills, bank, etc, literally everything) took about a second or longer to proceed. So I assume 200+ is high, then?
