How has this no-proc sets test affected game performance?

Merllow

No improvement at all

in big battles it became a little better, I saw only 200 ping, and before I had an increase of up to 350. It's ridiculous to choose the best from the worst)

No improvement at all

For example i was stuck 3mins in Undo ping pong game .... couldn't do anything only watch the fight.

So.. I don't think it's possible to reliably judge whether the procs have had an effect or not.
The only thing I can say is that performance, for me, has been worse.
As wonky as skills can be I sometimes, I now have 2-3sec delay or the skill not going off at all, even after pressing the button 4-5 times. Even barswapping is affected.

But it's not only in Cyrodiil it's happening. It's happening in overland content too (albeit less frequently and with less delay).
I can see my character doing an animation and hearing the sound of it several seconds after I used it, to the point where I sometimes think "I didn't even press that skill!". And I realize I must've used it several seconds ago as part of my normal rotation without thinking about it.

But another thing that's happening on a daily basis now is that I have a "login queue" showing every time I try to log in (both on EU and NA).
Afaik those queues showing should only be there to alleviate server stress while also making it less likely for already logged in players to experience performance issues. The queue times showing for me aren't real (they always say 30sec, but last just a few seconds), but they are still showing nonetheless. It's a symptom of something.
And since they are upgrading servers this year, it wouldn't surprise me if they are keeping server capacity to an absolute minimum for now. So, I think servers atm is a culprit causing more than the normal amount of issues.

And we shouldn't forget that they re-introduced cross healing into the mix.

After this last update I was thinking, "hmm.. performance seems better".

However, I didn't want to say anything because normally after they restart servers everything runs better for a day. Also, the other reason I didn't say anything was I only played for a few minutes.

Well it is 5am on Saturday and I logged in and performance is poo poo. If Proc Sets are disabled then 1) they are not the problem or 2) Zeni is running some performance draining tests in PvP.

Bring back the 2014/15 ESO please.
