Every time before a major patch I have gotten this freeze and stutter lag every 20 seconds or so which makes the game unplayable. This has been CONSISTENTLY happening throughout patches, yes I have did hard resets, cleared cache etc etc. Nothing fixes this as it is on ZOS' side. Here is an example of the lag I am experiencing, this is from a couple of patches ago and its the same as I am experiencing currently.
