Error Code 1016, MAKING me NUTS

I am having the same problem and it is freaking annoying as heck. I am loosing bounties and drops. I have been doing some reading and it seems it could also be a Diablo bug. For a DH when we open our inventory or get big drops to deal with. I also have the WINMr report. Here they are.

I have done everything. the ip config, fixed my white list settings. turned off nvidia game overlay, reset my IP, etc. etc… and still nothing. I followed and did everything sated on this page. diablo fans .com/ forums/diablo -forums/diablo-iii-general- discussion /technical- support/230529-error- 1016-winmtr
Soooo… WTF, Blizz. how does this get fixed??? its ruining a great PTR.
Thank you.
CelticWitch.

You might be on to something because I just came back to the game and created a DH and keep getting 1016 every 10-15 minute

I play all the time and this only happens in PTR, not while playing normal season realms. it happens while removing gems from gear, often while interacting with other NPC’s. To me, that makes it a PTR issue.

And I just had my first error 1016 DC of the night - in HC no less, with 2 elite packs on my heels.

Luckily I’m still alive. But sure as hell ain’t touching D3 again anytime soon with this :poop: going on 24/7 for weeks now.

Nevermind the constant ping spikes and feeling like I’m playing through water, with spells casting a full second AFTER I pressed the button.
