Hello! I’m having really bad world latency spikes up to 10000ms where everything just freezes (frames are fine). I thought it was my internet but nothing else is lagging, I got a new router and same problem so I figured it was on blizzards end. I then created a character on oceanic servers and played around with it for awhile and it was working perfectly confirming it’s on blizzards end. If anyone else is having this problem let me know, the game is unplayable on my local servers.
Things I’ve tried,
1, reinstalling WoW.
2, updating all my drivers.
3, getting a whole new router.
4, making sure my internet was stable.
5, Oceanic servers are working for me perfectly, however local servers arent, im from Texas.
6, Disabling all my addons and uninstalling them.
If anyone else has had this problem and fixed it or has any other ideas of things I could test please let me know! Thanks <3.

It sounds like a routing issue, which likely can resolve on it’s own. Can you try a VPN and if you get different results contact your ISP to check that.
I am having the same issues. I have not tried on an oceanic server, however I have:
Disabled Addons
Updated Drivers
Reinstalled Windows
Ran scan and repair (it always seems to find something to repair, but unknown what it is)
Made sure windows Security is not locking up any of the files in the wow directory scanning them.
Confirmed no issues on 2 other PCs playing from the same Local Network (Wife’s Laptop, and My Office PC)
I have run through a few different VPN locations from Express VPN, Mostly Seattle and Denver.
Latency spikes only seem to happen in instanced content. Delves, M+, Raid.
Just throwing this out here for OP right now there has been a constant dos happening each weekend for the past month. When you try to connect to the states from the east coast you hit it and lag out.
Nothing you can do about it.
