Current lag

Am I the only one having incredible lag right now? Been like this for the past 2-3 days. Sometimes my ping is 200-300 but even when it sits around 70-80 like it usually does the lag is there.
Things happen with a 2 sec delay so I get killed without even seeing what is happening.

Anyone else experiencing this?

    I see my ping fluctuating far more than normal and frequently it can be 10-20 ms higher than normal so something somewhere is happening I'm just not sure if it's on ZoS' end or at some node between my ISP and ZoS' servers.

    Platform and server?

    Your location in the real world?

    Your location/content in the game?

    Ok maybe it's not just me then.
    I play on PC-EU and I live in Sweden, it laggs the most in BG's of course but still happens in PVE enviroments.

    My lag has been dreadful the last few days and my ping makes yours all look good.

    I'm on PS4 in Australia and my ping to NA 2 hours ago from the console (https://pingtestlive.com/eso-status) was averaging 700 milliseconds, with huge fluctuations between 400 and 3000. Funnily enough, the EU server gave a far better result, but still over 400 on average.

    Even checking this from my PC just now is averaging 330. My tip: be grateful for what you've got.

    Try rebooting your computer if restarting the game and updating addons don't work.
    No not an joke a month or so ago, I had game being very bad, it was hard doing crafting writs.
    Reboot and it was fine, I only get lag in huge Cyrodil fights normally.
    Grinding just make you go in circles.
    Asking ZoS for nerfs is as stupid as asking for close air support from the death star.

    HI all, if you are are experiencing lag, could you note the following for us:
    • Platform Server (i.e.- PC EU/ XB NA)
    • In-game location
    • Activity being done where lag was experienced

    We can pass the feedback on.

    Also, please place an in-game ticket when this happens as well. This should give the team more information to better identify issues.

    Thanks.
    I reset the router and it brought the ping down to the low 400's on the PS4 (still 320 from the PC) but that's still not great, especially if I want to play PVP.

    Greetings,

    After further review we have decided to move this thread to a category we think is more appropriate for this topic.

    Thank you for your understanding
