Extremely high World Latency

I want to point that was not server related for me since I was on a group of five in which 1 was from area, 1 from sargeras and 1 from withcbane or smoething idon’tknowwhat and both me and the other player were from Ragnaros, same conditions but he was not lagging, only me.

Here is my pingplotter data

Currently also getting this for the last hour or so, anywhere between 2k and 8k latency connecting from AU.

US based friends not getting it, the scant amount of people in remix who reply in /1 don’t seem to be affected.

Though it’s not like usual lag that’ll lag everything out, I still see people running around and not moonwalking or running in place, but their names are usually “Unknown”.

Chat seems fine, that’s not lagged out and the messages reach the server okay,

Playing in NA to US West - unplayable, has been all night

also for me, us west cata classic Atiesh for the last 1.5 hours reached 8k ping, now can’t long on

As an aside, I also can’t load Blizz’s support articles such as in the sticky and linked above by -

It loads a very barebones version of the pingplotter article in white, not the usual Blizzard stuff as the images aren’t loading, though entirely broken and only giving info for Diablo with a embedded video frame overlayed on it making it near impossible to read.

Seems the only sites I am having problems with currently, are Blizzard hosted sites and addresses.

(Other than archive(dot)org which has been hit with a cyber attack for the last 4~ days)

Same here. Since the patch I’ve been having insta-crashes to desktop, and each stage of login will take 5-10 min. Even the news page is refusing to load, have to do a reload 5-6 times before it responds. Problem seems to be on their end. Definitely started after the patch.

are u playing on NA? if so and you give me the server i can get you the IP you need to run the ping plotter.

I play on NA realms, Yes, Bronzebeard.

Was mostly just hoping to read through it so I could run a traceroute.

Thanks!.

Having the same issue - Moon Guard NA was perfect till all of a sudden 9k Home and 8k World can’t do anything.

I wasn’t getting as high latency as you are all facing, but I was fine before today. Today, I am seeing anywhere from 300-800ms World Latency. Honestly incredibly frustrating when my guild is going through leveling and getting gear and I am stuck 6 seconds behind them trying to do stuff.

anyone know how long this usually takes to get fixed? i was meant to raid in a few hrs =(

From these tests, it looks like Twelve99 is experiencing issues, which is the peer that hands ISP traffic off to the Blizzard servers (not part of their network). Unfortunately, you either have to wait until it gets better or convince your ISP to escalate the issue.

As an Aussie, with an ISP in no way connected to Arelion (Twelve99) , a Swedish telecoms and infrastructure provider, I have no way to

though as Activision Blizzard is? one of their customers as noted via https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arelion

posting here seems to be the best option, as they can reach out to the provider of their network.

I don’t think that’s the case anymore since they switched server hosting (and moved Los Angeles server to Las Vegas), but it would take me a while to verify. You can also see the notice about those claims right above the text:

Disagree, since you’re posting to fellow players, not alerting staff. Twitter or tickets might be your best course of contact if you believe the wiki.

As blues do monitor this forum, I’m not going to a third party site that I can’t even read properly anymore without an account (and no I will not create one) and suggesting it is probably not the wisest course of action.

As there will also be quite a large delay on ticketing an issue like this then creating one for it also seems redundant as it will no doubt take longer (as first 1-2 of them will just give a template response before anyone actually reads it) than the issue will go on for.

But I’m not here to argue with you, I’m posting on Blizzard’s forums about a Blizzard issue, if we’re lucky one will see it and tap someone on the shoulder, if not, so be it, otherwise the others posting here can at least be assured it’s not just them in the lurch.

Same problem, virtually unplayable
