Good afternoon,
I am not the first to say something about the EU server, and will probably not be the last, but since last maintenance, its almost unplayable in pvp.
Playing pvp is currently my enjoyment in ESO, I like to switch between pve and pvp whenever I feel like I burn out on one thing, so currently its PVP. But, since last maintenance as previously said its almost impossible. I have proper internet, connection is good, but it takes over 2 seconds before my siege engines fire on prime time. I live just about 400 km's away from the server, so connection really shouldnt be so bad. The weirdest thing about it is, I am currently better off playing pvp in the NA server even though I am in The Netherlands. The ping is the same, but server response is much faster. The funny thing is, I know when an enemy group comes near, because my ping starts to rise.....
I know nothing of IT, as thats not my line of work. But there is something terribly wrong with the EU server currently, and its horrible. The performance in pvp is currently worse than during the mayhem event, and there were considerably more people around. When its prime time, there is a delay of more than 2 seconds as said before, playing pvp is extremely difficult, because we now need to anticipate when we need to heal 2 seconds before we normally do. Bar swaps are hardly working, skills are hardly firing.. And the weirdest thing is deaths, you just drop dead. Making it feel like you got oneshotted, yet the deathrecap says otherwise. Make no mistake, I either way play with the big groups known as zergs, or I do smallscale, and both are just harsh.
And then to see that there is no maintenance this week makes it a bit... painfull. So everything in a nutshell... please help us poor EU players

Especially those who live far away from the server like the Asian and Aussie/Kiwi players can barely put their game up after their shifts to try and relax. Its unplayable for me, and I dont even have it so bad!
So the question after this long read is, what is the problem? Please fix this

greetings from a concerned player,
EC_Rob
