Random 999+ latency jumps since Morrowind(New Zealand)

Hi,
I have been playing ESO for some time as you can see. I have not had any issues with latency at all in the time I have played up til this release(Morrowind).
Other MMO's I have played over the last couple of days without any latency issues what so ever: WoW, TERA, Warframe, RIFT as well as some ARPG's: Grim Dawn, PoE.
I have tried to switch between the 32 bit and 64 bit ESO client with no change. According to Windows Task manager process performance for eso64.exe or eso32.exe, I am able to see that my ping to the ESO servers in real time at 198.20.200.156 and 192.20.200.26 is indicated at a ussual 190ms ping. I am on fibreoptic speed and I live in New Zealand(the best I could get in my country at this time).
I am noticing that the ping indicator will say that the current ping in the bottom left corner of the game screen is at 200 for exacmple, then randomly everything will stop , players will start to "warp"/"teleport" all over the place and the indicator will go up to 999+ in red. When I check the windows details this shows my ping is still at 190 and speed tests show my ussual fast speeds.
This is very definatly an issue with the game/server/? and it would be great to get a fix here. I can't imagine that others in NZ will be having any better experience than myself with this.
Thank you,

Hluill✭✭✭I am in North America and I have had similar experiences in latency jumps.
Someitmes I just blame my lousy internet connection. But sometimes I open task manager and notice that the ESO patcher is using an abnormally high amount of memory.
Not sure if you're running the game with the patcher running like I sometimes do, but closing will sometimes help reduce the lag spikes.Black-handed Hluill and his daughter Leyek of House Numaril.0 -

✭✭✭✭✭I live in asia and have similar spikes of latency. Quite boring but you learn to live with it ;-/ dont understand why TESO is the game which is most affected.0 -
Floppyjo✭✭✭Thanks for your replies, but I need to mention that this is not a new experience to me I have been playing this game for some time and I am aware of ussual latency in ESO.
This has come about due to the new release, not the ussual latency I get in ESO.0 -
