Cyrodiil server performance is realated to animation cancelling/LA weaving

Unless ZoS decides to fix the animation cancelling/LA weaving bug, Cyrodiil will keep the bad server performance.
Just fix it please.

when riding in cyrodiil or near a keep (out of combat) you should have arround 60 fps with good Pc.
The moment you start a fight, fps drop to 20 and lag spikes.
And don't tell me because i have a bad PC as mine got 8700k and 1080ti.
This is related to server performance as the server struggle to follow all the queries sent from all players.
Their is a reason why most of mmo add a GCD to players skills, to let server handle all the informations sent from and to players.
This also happen in trials so not only in Cyrodiil so it affects pve players as well.
If you are worried about your dps drop because of this don't worry as zenimax can buff skills to compensate the loss from LA weaving.
Results: a better game with better performance not the slideshow that make every other mmo laught at.

    Lol now you really are reaching for straws

    Your crusade against animation cancelling/LA weaving is pointless. LA weaving won't be removed from the
    game no matter what you try to blame it for. Might as well try to blame WWI on animation cancelling...

    Do you have proof? It also has a lot to do with add ona that send request to the server every second or ten seconds master merchant for example.

    Sounds reasonable enough. I'd prefer to see some numbers, though. And some comments from developers regarding the issue. The last part would be an extraordinary event, considering how bad they are in communication when it comes to problems the game have.

    I don't know about your theory but there for sure is performance issues in Cyrodiil.

    I wouldn't have a problem with a GCD combat system. Remove all cast times though.

    you look for evidence? just watch any twitch stream if you can't play and notice the difference frames/lag before and during a fight.
    Even NASA server can't recieve/send all the queries from and to players without frame rate drop and lag.

    The lag comes from calculations, such as damage vs. mitigation, healing vs. defile, and so on. (Those are examples...)
    Not the animation or canceling of such. In fact, reason dictates it would improve performance since the animation wouldn't even register when it's canceled, reducing visual input.

    Theory holds no water.

    Light attacks are responsible for the lag in cyrodiil now huh? I think you'd be at home playing original guildwars, In that game all you had to do was press number keys, the light attacks would automatically go towards whoever you were targeting. Pressing mouse one and then clicking a skill sure must be taxing on the ol servers. Kyne forbid you press block or dodgeroll after casting a skill whew that will blow the hamster right off the wheel.

    This is freaking hilarious. I spent nearly 3 years exclusively PvPing, and not once did I hear the terms "light attack cancelling" or "light attack weaving" come up. I heard the term "weaving", but I don't think most people who used it even knew what it meant exactly.

    In short, very few PvPers actually use light attacks in between their skills (check your death recap. Any light attacks in there?), so there is NO WAY those are responsible for the Cyrodil lag. Also, given the average dps of the average player, I'm willing to bet very few players period actually employ proper light attack weaving or animation cancelling. You guys have GOT to stop with the crusade against it.

    LA are associated to a skill in 90% of all damage per sec (dp^s) during a fights.
    That means 50% of all queries sent are LA (sometimes block or bash doesn't matter).
    Just fix this so only skills or LA are sent during 1 sec time and you'll notice for sure a huge performance improvement

    I don't think it has anything to do with AC. Apparently tbagging is causing the lag.

    Ignorant ? how presumptuous ...
    I know everything i need to know about LA weaving and animation cancelling.
    I know how to make good parse (80k on raid dummy with my Magplar).
    I just want this mechanic removed and fixed because there is no point into 80k parse when your game turns into a slideshow in trial or cyrodiil.
    I only care about performance in this game ...

    just remove the wolves from Cyrodiil like they did with the deer.
    That’ll solve it. B)

    I think all the fireworks, spaghetti code (a Player told them their guild roster was a memory sink remember?), and untested updates on top of an old foundation that causes it, but sure go with your theory.
