It's in the post they made: https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/600966/update-33-pc-launch-postmortem/"...the issue was actually caused by a bad (as in failing) network port that was unable to process as much bandwidth as it was configured for. It wasn't a software problem at all; it was a hardware failure that, in essence, slowed down the entire megaserver. Tuesday’s maintenance was to take that device out of service and reconfigure a replacement, and once that was up, everything returned to normal and the DB Sharding process ran as intended: behind the scenes and with no player impact.
Obviously, there are no guarantees, but we do believe we have gotten to the root of this issue. The TL;DR is that it wasn't related to Update 33, Account Wide Achievements or DB Sharding at all, even though they all happened around the same time and we spent too much time investigating a red herring because of it."Edited by heinousmoz on April 6, 2022 7:14PM0 -

✭✭✭I was thinking for a long time to get back to another game but ESO kept me pretty busy,between RL stuff,work,family,household,etc I only have certain time a day for gaming so I did prioritize ESO over other games, now at least I can get back to them

bachpain✭✭✭✭Must be that bad network switch on the PCNA server they had to replace a few weeks back. Wait, nevermind.
Seemed odd to me 5 hours to address one exploit while using one item but what do I know besides what's communicated.2 -

✭I'm gonna quote myself from 2 days ago, because lots of us predicted exactly this.We are finishing one event, which was difficult for PC NA, and now about to go into the most anticipated event of the year.
If Zos break their largest server before an event that requires logging into multiple characters they will seem completely incompetent.
I waited till after the sharding to buy ESO+, so this afternoon I resubscribed... I'm an idiot.#1 tip (Re)check your graphics settings periodically - especially resolution.2 -

✭@ZOS_GinaBruno
Looks like you can login just with only one character and after a1/4 of an hour waiting to login. If you try to login with another character you''ll be kicked off for inactivity and when you'll re-try you will see the only one character you can login with. This means that the waiting time to login with your second character was just an appearance. If you try again, you'll be kicked off for inactivity again.Man did not weave the web of life – he is merely a strand in it. Whatever he does to the web, he does to himself1 -
