Noticed it past two nights. Is it just me or everyone experiencing it?

I haven't noticed anything.

I use this to diagnose connection problems

If three of you noticed it and no one else did, run the trace to the server and let it run in the background. If you find a hop that you have in common that's throwing spikes, you can inform the owner of that node. A lot of times when ISPs blame the destination and the destination blames the ISP, the culprit can be found in some obscure failing hardware halfway up the backbone.

Not always the case, but either way, it's an epic diagnostic tool.

Actually, it was just in SolA... and it was zone wide.. not sure why.

Been noticing increased lag since the patch on tuesday as well. Don't know if they're related or if it's just a coincidence but it's makin me sad.

**READ THIS IF YOU HAVE EXPERIENCED RIDICULOUS LAG IN SOL A OR ANY DUNGEON RECENTLY**

I was recently in Sol A grouping and once I'd gotten a bit deeper into the dungeon I'd noticed it was lagging.

I went to options and turned off "Use Advanced Lighting".

Then, it stopped lagging.

Simple as that!

I know SolA/Permafrost had their own separate lag issues, however, I think everyone is lagging in SolA now because I've played with people that hadn't experienced the lag there before but are experiencing it now ... I will try the advanced lighting options tonight and see if that corrects it and report back.
