The problem is the instance that hosts your map.

I'm not their devOps and don't know how they've structured their servers. This being said, you can have a stable 12ms in a map, and then enter an abyss rift where your network spikes up to 10k+ and it becomes unplayable.

In the campaign this can be fixed by resetting the instance through the warp system. You can't do that on endgame maps. If you end up in a broken instance, your key is basically gone unless you're able to finish despite the lag.

Why this topic hasn't been officially recognized is beyond me

For me the problem persists in all instances during all times of day on all servers with any graphics setting combination you could imagine (with some variation, but the spikes are always there)

First of all, I didn't have any problems anywhere else, everything else ran smoothly, and yet it was apparently due to my internet connection, as I found out after a long search. There was a relatively high amount of packet loss between the router and the provider. I found this out with the help of this internet benchmark https://de.packetlosstest.com. I tested this extensively to make sure that it wasn't my network or device that was causing the problem. I tested with different devices (PC and smartphone), Ethernet cables, and Wi-Fi, and I also tested with my smartphone on other networks to make sure that it wasn't the device that was causing the problem.
In the end, I was pretty sure that it wasn't my network.

If you do the test, it should look something like this in the best case scenario.

Here are the settings I used.

A technician from my provider then fixed the problem.
It seems that Path of Exile 2 is very sensitive to such things. This is consistent with reports from other users I have read who got rid of the problem by switching from Wi-Fi to cable.

I hope this was helpful.
