So ZOS, you figure out whats causing the horrible game breaking lag in PvP yet?

You know that small crowd of people that stay and keep partying even after they've stopped the music and turned the lights on.... Yeah that's us.

Repentance causes a huge lag spike for some people.

Its it FPS lag or Server Lag?

Cause its not FPS lag that's causing the trouble, its huge Lag Spikes

Ping/Latency. I can see why, too. Repentance has one of the most complicated sounding computations it must make. It has to find people that are in range (check one), make sure they are dead (check 2) make sure they havent been pulled from before (check 3). sum the total of pulls (check 4), figure out how many friendlies are in range (check 5), apply buffs and bonuses to the heal (check 6), apply the heal (check 7), apply the "used" flag on the corpses (check 8)

So 8 scaling calculations ran simultaneously from one button press (and thats just the basics I could think of logically, it could be far more internally)

+ existing minor/major buff check and stack ?

I would love to see the size of the cache stacking all the hots/dots/buffs/debuffs on the server in a major battle.
Somoene else said the issue didn't kick off until pop lock.
Perhaps it is something in the pop lock code.

Does it get worse with the length of the battle...not just the numbers involved ?
Perhaps a guild could try a 10 on 10 of an hour and see if any lag builds up.

Its not just PvP. I get it farming cp in pve. Soon as I lay down a lot of damage at once I get lagged.

100% true. I pull 40-50 mobs at once and AoE them down solo. It lags pretty hard for a short amount of time. Now consider in the keep 40-50 people are AoEing everything too. My guess is this is the issue.

And dont even think of dropping a meteor. Thatd be a mistake.

When Im grinding CP and I drop a meteor or my meteor set procs my game literally seems to stop for half a second and then it goes back to me killing all those poor skeletons. I dont get it from eruption or blockade or fire ring when all those are hitting like 20x plus on ocassions. Also I think a couple of the synergies are causing this as well. So maybe its when a lot of enemies are killed in one instant? Also have done it with temps pretty much spamming repentence right next to me and thats not doing any lag but I can see where youre coming from.

Last night lag was pretty bad on Thornblade so I switched over to Chillrend & didn't have any lag at all. Chill was pop locked for AD & DC and I believe EP had 3 bars.

Everyone was locked and with decent size ques, DC had almost a 30 lock for a couple of hours.

But it is odd don't get lag over there at all in big battles.

Something doesn't feel right about the lag that happens on Thorn

Could be server issue
