I was experiencing some major lag at the world boss. It doesn’t seem like it was from the ls/fo sorcs though. everything was fine right up until the umbacrux totem was dropped. there seems to still be some buggy code with that item. once the umbacrux totem hit the ground it seemed like everything locked up for everyone there (atleast everyone in my party experienced the same thing).

Curious if this is happening to others?
I saw some serious rubber banding in the last WB I did before the patch.

I had issues with wb lag before patch
And yes it’s the sorcs 
I never did. Tons of WB. Countless Maidens. Not once.
yeah sorcs, too many of them this season
as a sorc, i can confirm that you still can stack up to 64 stacks of conjuration mastery (after hotfix) which leads to 0 cooldown lightning spear (and you really need only ~40 stacks to do so), which is super fun, but once you get 2 sorcs like that into the pit for example, its completely unplayable

Just left a world boss with so much lag and rubber banding that I couldn’t even find my character. Was like a slide show of pin ball, everyone warping around.

Yea same horrible lag at world boss just now. Not sure if it’s the boss or all the sorcs there.
I can confirm the one Barbarian in the fight was causing the lag. Let’s nerf Barb.

I believe it is to some degree.
Even if you don’t see one in your instance, there can be a lot of them in other instances putting strain on the server.
Is it really the sorcs though? I lost my sorc (fireball build) earlier today to the world boss due to lag. Just had a bit too much hubris and decided to attack when the Wandering Death got stunned, then he started his laser beams, my game becomes unresponsive, and character dead, time to start anew.
I didn’t see any other sorcerers in the zone though, and I was the only player who died. So obviously other players didn’t experience the same lag I did. (I knew when my ping shot to 800, I probably should have just left.) Before that hotfix, I never had a problem. After that patch, World Bosses are basically now a no-go.
Man I find it hilarious how prior to the “hotfix” to lightning spear, I never saw one post on the forums nor ever experienced any issues myself.
The “hotfix” was out of left field to me.
But after the “hotfix”, I have seen several threads now about issues like this.
The devs took something that was
And knee jerked by changing lightning spear with a “hotfix”.
So was their idea of a fix to make something rare, common lol?
Good job

Its reminds me Ball Sorc on Season 2. But there - it was only 2 sec lag and WB insta-killed
About lags, freezes etc. because of server-side calculations - it reminds me something
- rain of legends
- max lvl in hours
- a tons of crap only for salvaging
- simple, brainless builds
- server-side calculations lags
D3 is fast approaching
Lags a lot on the world boss this season, so I see the game improvements are proceeding as usual

I noticed that in my two rounds of lag, followed by being slain by the world boss, there were Tyrael’s Might players involved.
Hopes devs are looking into this if any optimization can be done.
that totem is my primary hate thing in season 5 where it draw all the fire power from the hydras.
i bet minions & wolfs are attracted to it as well, really messed up the battlefield arrangements.
It’s been unplayable for me, constantly lagging out and dying it’s almost been a week of this. Was fine at the start of new season now since last Wednesday it’s screwed, this patch tomorrow better fix this freezing and invisible walls etc blah blah
