Anyone experiencing it? Random intermittent lags while doing M+ with a full OCE group.
My ISP is MyRepublic, Starhub and Singtel users in my group experiences the same problem.
Edit: Playing with NA instance servers are fine, albeit a constant higher ping.
Bumping this. It always happen near evening all the way till late night. Singapore timing from around 5pm+ all the way to 2am ish. This has been happening for a good week at least for me and my friends in Barthilas. Similar ISP across guild and group as OP’s.
We’re on Barthilas too.
At least for my case, seems to be isolated to Singapore and Blizz’s connection. I am not sure about yours. When the lag comes, Singapore players often lag out together at the same time, despite us having diff ISPs and plans and systems. The common factor appears to be some unified connection point or something.

Yes, I tested with a VPN to Japan and I stay connected while my friends all dc like a potato. Same as your situation, everyone from SG dc at the same time regardless of ISP.

ripped so many keys because of this the past week
bump this. whole month been lagging. please fix your stuff, blizzard
Recommend you transfer this to the Technical forum, you are more likely to get a response there.
bump. it’s still happening
Just want to chime in, I am playing from Korea on Barthilas and I have noticed the exact same lag spikes happening to me as well. It just started occurring around a week ago.
This seems to be an issue with OCE servers in general.
I got this randomly (a few weeks back) and then switched to a US server out of curiosity and there was no lag. I switched back to OCE to check and it’s still lagging.
I’ve also had this happen during an LFR and NA players were also affected so it’s not just the connection with Asia.
this happens in classic cata too, seems like no news or updates on this as well.
bump.
just riparino 2 keys cause ping went to 2k and everyone dc-ed
Same issue here. I’m with Myrepublic, my friend is with Singtel, we will have ping spike to 2000+ at the same time. So pretty sure it’s blizzard’s problem. (Frostmourne)
Playing from Japan and getting these high intermittent lag spikes too. My RL friend from back home in Scotland who is playing on Frostmourne just to hang out gets these lags at exactly the same time. There’s definitely some issue with international connections to Frostmourne.
It’s not only Frostmourne. I think all OCE servers are plagued by it.
I am getting 400-600ms on an oce server from Singapore and I don’t think ill be able to get the end of season achievements I want (gladiator). It’s consistently been this way for the past few years since BFA. Idk what else to do tbh.
happens roughly at prime time (6pm SGT onwards)
Try using services like Exitlag/Battleping etc for better routing to OCE servers.
its about time to give us SEA players the SG server blizzard
