The PVP lag after Patch 1.2.3 is Unbearable

By Julianos' little teacup, what the hell did you guys do to the servers? My general frames per second in PVP is usually in between 15-25 but now it's at 7-8 even if I'm not even near a battle. Other EB members in the NA Wabbajack campaign are complaining of a severe FPS drop too, anyone else?

    Yea, I'm on EP wabbajack and have noticed a severe drop in FPS.Almost like every thing is stop motion captured.
    P.S. oooo seems like that reboot fixed it.
    P.P.S hrrmm another reboot.

    Its not the lag. It's the major FPS drops. My Average FPS has dropped 20 points since this patch. I now get REALLY low FPS in keep battles as opposed to yesterday where i could have 200 people on my screen with no problem

    It is not just PVP. I can't run any direction for more that 10 seconds without a 6-10 second lag.
    And that is away from town, downhill, with a stiff tailwind.

    No addons here, since all are out of date anyways. FPS dropped from 60 in non contested gate zone of Dawnbreaker to 15 in contested area of Wabbajack. Of course the dropped connections as well.

    Try lowering your Graphics shadow setting by one. I read in another thread it helped. The new update has teh uber graphics, so it makes sense.

    It could also be the 9 zillion people downloading the update at the same time... I am speculating of course, but I read ZOS was looking into it.

    But they fixed it so offline party members do not crash the group. Give credit where credit is due. Oh, the also made so we can see how far we need to go to place a forward camp (next keep) when a camp bugs out. Fabulous fixes. Now if we can just not crash the server, roll everything back and have decent frame rate we would be in half decent situation.

    not sure why people want to play in wabba.. the server is just bad (laggy). other servers, even when they have the same number of players as wabba, don't have near the lag that wabba does... go to bloodthorn

    FPS drop bites. Had to "fix the issue" by going to character select or total reboot. This will not work when people are in the middle of large conflicts that will have people needing to do same reboots to just play a few moments more to find the effort placed you back at you starting gate.

    People like Wabba because you stand a chance of seeing other players.

    Rebooting my PC seemed to fix this, and thank god the rage levels were hitting uncharted territory I ALMOST logged into swtor.

    Don't feel like leveling another alt while this lag is making it unplayable in PvP so might as well play something else.

    My FPS seems fine, never goes below 20-25 (which for me is normal in heavy particle situations, a mega large siege might drop me to 10) but that doesnt seem to be my problem.

    mine is that I show up somewhere. I can hear the sounds of glorious combat, but I cannot see nor interact with it

    then, a few moments later I see 10 horses charging off away from me and 6 dead bodies at my feet.

    This happens a lot.

    Its almost like im phased out until the battle ends.

    Though I have been killed by someone i literally did not see before. I just died, blam, and never saw a soul.

    I want to believe in this game SOO BAD, but every single patch you guys break more than you fix! It's so disheartening. Just like everyone else here, I go from a SOLID 90 fps, to 10 fps.

    If you look on reddit and in game chat, it's pretty safe to say its not just "some" it seems to be most people. I love the massive battles, but i always go from 70 fps to around 5 fps and i am starting to think they were to ambitious with the amount of players at screen at once
