Egorum.9506 Posted April 22, 2018 Author Share Posted April 22, 2018 Ran gw2 diag, it's at 100% packet loss for the NC soft servers. I opened a ticket, but it's definitely on your end Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarpSpasm.9721 Posted April 22, 2018 Share Posted April 22, 2018 I not savvy enough to post stats, but my game has been unplayable since Tuesday 17th April. Permanent skill lag & occasional ping up to 4.5k. I keep trying, but quit after 10 mins. Very frustrating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check the support tab for the article on connectivity, follow the diagnostics instructions, then open a latency support ticket and post the results there. Maybe it'll help if they have more information Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Healix.5819 Posted April 22, 2018 Share Posted April 22, 2018 The -diag option includes the old NCSoft servers, which are no longer used. Regardless, both the old servers and the new ones intentionally block pings through their network, hence the 100% packet loss. You'll need to use PingPlotter if you want to trace their network. If you just want to ping the servers, here's an Amazon server that will respond: dynamodb.us-east-1.amazonaws.com dynamodb.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Healix.5819 Posted April 22, 2018 Share Posted April 22, 2018 > @"Egorum.9506" said: > no loss with those, but 150 is high as kitten That one was for the EU servers in Frankfurt, Germany (dynamodb.**eu-central-1**.amazonaws.com). Only ping whichever one you're actually using, which I'm guessing is NA since you're closer, which is located in Northern Virginia, US. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any ideas why I'm getting constant 150-200 in game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ping shown in-game isn't your true ping, it's network latency + server processing time, which is around 10-20ms higher than your real ping. Your ping to NA was only 64ms however, whereas 150-200ms is what you'd expect for EU. You can try to find out what your ping is up to Amazon's network, while you're seeing 150-200 in-game. Ideally, you should use the IP of the map you're currently on by using the chat command /ip, but if not, you can use the login server (EU is auth2): tracert auth1.101.arenanetworks.com Regardless, there's not much you can do, since any problem past your ISP is outside of their control. You can only try various VPNs to change how you're routed across the internet, the goal being to avoid whichever hop is causing problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarpSpasm.9721 Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 Whatever the patch was today, my week-long lag has gone now & ping is back to normal. Thanks patch ppl! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
