Come on Blizzard, what is the point of having servers in OCE if we can’t play the game? having more than 200 world ms is unreal, I would much rather a longer wait to get into a game that is actually playable.
Let us choose our region when we que! this goes for all kinds of content.
I can’t do 3v3s without having 350 ping and don’t even get me started on rated BGs…

yea… no
10 charcoal
Even east coat to west coast. I used to live in Hawaii and west coast latency was fine but east coast (especially back when the datacenter was in Boston) was crazy.
I think some people are more sensitive to it because a lot of people I’ve talked to act like it’s not a problem at all but I notice it a lot if my latency is even more than 60-70.
I would love to have less than 100, that would be playable. but even right now in a solo shuffle i have 191.
impossible to get kicks off etc
Yeah OCE world ping is awful. Esp during the evening.
Move to America.
I just have Telstra 5G and sit around 28-30ms world and home.
Does the ping stay that low in instanced PvP?
I fee like it’s very consistent around 30-40ms regardless of the server the other players are on… Once in a while if I v’s NA players it might be high as 80-100 but it’s not consistently at that and sometimes much lower. Sometimes I’ve v’s NA players and barely increased at all. Not sure why it can happen like that. But overall the ping is really good.

Ok, I’ll recommend your ISP as a possible solution the next time this issue comes up.
You get ~200 ping when you queue into Americans from Aus/Nz however its stable ping of 5 → 50 if you vs only Australians from anywhere in country + NZ/Ind.
They tried this for wrath and the ladder was instantly dead for 2s 3s and 5s during its peak season 1 tbc and wrath season 1. They said you couldn’t choose were you queue because of the systems that were built 15 years ago with arena.
