Hoping to see this fixed in the maintenance tomorrow, waiting 5-10 seconds for input lag makes even being in cities nearly unplayable IMO

When I first zoned in, I thought somehow I had gotten stuck on an Oceanic realm. As it feels the same.

Yeah I was in a delve and waited for a min or so for Bran to stop having a staring contest with a mob… Eventually closed and reboot wow. Really annoying.

Yup, ik flying my alts around to grab old renown rewards but summoning a mount takes almost 10 seconds and the delay makes dragon riding… questionable at best.
Then when I finally get to the quartermaster it takes them 10 seconds to give me my item each time and 10 more to “open valorstones.”
First world problems I know but man it’s annoying

I think you might want to re-read what I said. I said it feels like I was playing on an Oceanic realm. As an Oceanic player I’m sure you know what it feels like when you get stuck on a US server, well it’s the same way when a US player gets stuck on a OCE server. That’s what undermine feels like even though I’m on a US server (looting takes SECONDS, clicking a spell vs it going through is measurable, etc.). I’m used to playing with sub 10ms latency, so this is very noticeable to me.

The latency has been a problem. It’s bad then better, bad then better. I hope it’s stabilized soon, although I imagine it can’t get better soon with the season starting lol.

I can’t imagine what people go through raiding or doing m+ like this
The hours I play I get stuck in a lot of OCE M+, it’s PAINFUL.

Something about a game not responding to input makes me so irritated lol. Especially one this old. It always seems to happen at terrible times too.

Sometimes I can appease myself by doing profession stuff or organizing my bank if it’s just combat and the open world that’s bad.
The last few days it’s even been inside town

You want to see MEGA lag, try interacting with your bank or mailbox in Stormwind on Moon Guard. They have sharding/layering disabled for RP reasons, it can take 5-10 seconds to get 1 item out of your mailbox. I moved my bank alts to Ironforge due to this.
I’m guessing they need to lower the number of characters that sharding/layering kicks in for the new zone (and the massive 40 man scrap groups don’t help, I was on a shard last night that had multiple full raids on it). And sadly, creating raids is a way to get more people onto a shard/layer than it’s supposed to have.
