Realm Latency? - Post Here

#0 - April 20, 2010, 9:32 p.m.

Lightbringer is currently experiencing major server lag (not connection lag) after it came back up this morning. A friend just told me his angel didn't pop after dying in an instance. Porting to towns takes forever before the blue bar starts progressing. Casting molten shield took several seconds... Are any realms in the same battlegroup (Whirlwind) experiencing the same issue?

Afternoon, folks. Just wanted to let you all know that we are aware of in-game latency affecting game play on the following realms:

We're currently looking into these issues and hope to have them resolved as quickly as possible. Thank you for all your reports. :)

A battlegroup is actually a collection of realms that are connected (so to speak) via Battlegrounds, Arenas, and cross-realm dungeons. Whenever you enter a Battleground, Arena, or a cross-realm dungeon, you are playing with characters from your same battlegroup. :)

Whirlwind is your battlegroup, Ravenia. You can learn more about these groups here: http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/pvp/battlegrounds/battlegroups/

Q u o t e:
Shu'Halo seems better. My latency is 329.

We're observing similar numbers. Latency appears to have normalized across Whirlwind realms. We're still keeping an eye on the stability of these realms, though, so should you encounter and further difficulties or issues, please post them within this thread. :)
