As we all know, this week has been rich with ESO disconnect times, unbelievably high ping spikes, entire parties being kicked from trials and of course - your flawless conquerer run being destroyed by ESO disconnecting at the exact second as you are executing the boss in vMA or your excellent almost no-death trial run being wiped repeatedly because of ping.

Please share your stories and highlights of your week. Let's all have some lols.

    My new baby Templar healer got into FG for my first attempt at dungeon healing.

    DC right after porting in, before I could even cast one spell.

    Wahhhh! cried the baby :smile:

    I was trying to rez someone in vAA. Since I'm on console, my attempt to rez resulted in me browsing the Crown Store in the middle of battle. As I backed out of this nonsense to once again attempt the rez, everyone in voice chat turned into Decepticons and I found myself back at the launch screen. The ol' ZoS DP. Good times.

    Had an 8-person PSN party split up into 2 groups for WGT farming. Luckily we were in PSN party chat so we didn't lose each other. Some of us got back in right away, some it took a little longer. We all had a pretty laugh about it.

    I was trying to defend Aleswell from the evil red army by burning their camp at the farm. After I burned it, I was spotted by two pretty bad EP players who killed me with basically light attacks because I couldn't cast any skills.

    Was disconnected yesterday right in the middle of looting a thieves guild box that had two treasure maps in it.

    We were waiting for a delve boss to respawn in Cyrodiil. After we managed to log back in i noticed the boss we needed for the clear was up so we bumrushed it before another disconnect happened. Got the clear, suicide wayshrined back to the EP gate, got caught in an infinite load screen.

    And that was it for the night.

    Didn't disconnect but just as we started fighting the planar inhibitor on vet, my ping went to 999 for a good 10secs, everything froze....then jumped around like crazy but luckily I survived..........it's been so bad though, that was just the worst time.

    Well at least I know that this happens to other people too! - nothing to do with the game or ZOS's servers though right? it's the players ISP's causing the problem (lol).

    I was in the Bank in Craglorn yesterday and it was full of players. Next second, I was the only player in there - ALL the other players dc'd en mass! Must have all been using the same ISP though right? I dc'd 5 minutes later.....

    Two nights ago, I believe, I was participating in a 3-way fight at Ash in a dethrone attempt, and got DCed twice over the course of about 10 minutes. AD had breached the inner via the front door, so we were dodging massive amounts of siege oil from above while trying to push forward to the back flag. Miraculously, after both DCs, I re-logged back into the keep still alive with fighting still going on. The fun part in all of this was that before I got kicked from the server, my character was still able to travel around the map with everybody else frozen in time. It was like a massive ESO Mannequin Challenge. It also allowed me to count exactly how many EP and DC were in and around the keep fighting, which arguably could've been a huge advantage had it not been for the fact that many of the other players in the fight got DCed as well.
