PvP unplayable if far from server?
I play a lot of mmo's and enjoy them but I live very far from any server in Europe or the Americas. I live in South Africa which means my best ping is about 230 ms. I play absolutely fine in PvE but as soon as I join a PvP large scale battle, everyone freezes into their resting stances and my ping bar pops to 999+. I am then disconnected and have to relog. I have never had this problem before the last couple of updates! I have no clue how to improve ping in PvP, and any advice would be most appreciated!

MaximillianDiE✭✭✭✭Check out battleping or WTFast (google is your friend). They're tunnelling services which can drop your ping radically - I'm in New Zealand so even further from the servers than you and do pretty well in pvp, but always use one of these service which drops my ping to between 130-170. Unfortunately though you're always going to have a handicap vs those players who get sub 50 ping so you learn to deal with it.Maximillian Die Caesar - DC - [K-Hole] RetiredRetiredMaximillian AD [[DiE]0 -

delushin✭✭✭I recently went from ADSL to NBN, I am playing on the PS4 and in the past when ever there was a battle of 20+ the PS4 would just lag out and the game would crash.
I still get some lag but I can now play without crashing so there is certainly an issue with ADSL speeds, the only way I could play was avoid the main battles.
Now being on the 100/40 NBN I can experience the entirety of PvP offers, there certainly is improves that could be made on ZOS end and it sucks that upgrading internet is not an option for everyone but it makes a HUGE difference.Raven Guard - PS4 [PvE/PvP] NA Server - Daggerfall Convenant

✭✭I play on an old tin can on the end of a piece of string that gets nibbled by fish in the ocean on the way to Australia. No NBN in my area yet.

DeanTheCat✭✭✭✭✭I highly recommend WTFast. It has improved my ping from a seriously unplayable 400+ ping to a manageable ~250ping (I live in Singapore). Meteor Showers will still send your ping to 999+ though. That being said, it's best to practice this when playing with high ping.

This one hails from far Singapore, excuse this one for his high pings. He also apologizes for any formatting/spelling errors, as he tends to answer using a mobile device.
Insanity is the price of Knowledge. Herma-Mora and Sheogorath, this one bows before thee.
This one does not advocate for any class to be nerfed. There are far deeper underlying issues then a simple "Class Imbalance". The Champion System is the problem. Not classes.
Please read this before creating yet another nerf thread.
