Bad lags and latency since latest patch (April 5)

It's since monday I'm experiencing very bad lag and latency in the game, mostly about sound effects, but also npc interactions and in dungeons as well.
Just yesterday, I made almost half dungeon without even see enemies, before just drop the pledge and go away. Not to mention the several loading screens I encounter just walking through a city.
Now, I never had a good connection, but before the monday's maintenance everything worked just fine.. after that, the lag is basically unbearable. I lowered a lot of graphic settings and now at least I can play - almost - like before, but still.. why? Why suddendly everything lag so bad?
I'm on PC EU, still trying to figure out if it's the last patch to have brought such issues or - for coincidence - my connection sucks since monday, even if I didn't detect any kind of malfunctions in other things.

I've already repaired the game two times, flushed my DNS and wrote a ticket to the Support.
Someone has encountered similar issues or they know why are they happening?

    if you are from Russia or you route goes through any RU provider, then this it is the RU governmental issue (RosKomNadzor to blame).

    Same issue on xbox na. Game is almost unplayable due to lag and freezing in dungeons, trials, crafting, all menus, npc dialogues. Seriously Zos could u have broken the game any worse with an 'update'. I have zero lag or issues playing other games on xbox. Just Eso, and only since the update.
    At least acknowledge the issue Zos and tell us ur working on it.
