*Extreme* lag inside specific instances only.

I just went to fight Olroth, and suddenly faced the most extreme lag, highly fluctuating from 300 ms to 60k ms. Yep that's entire minutes of lag.

If I go back to my hideout I'm back to stable ~30ms. Something is wrong with that instance, but since it cost about 1 divine to open that portal I can't very well just call it quits.

Anyway something is wrong on your end, obviously.

Changing servers did not change the lag.

It's getting worse, I literally can't do anything inside of that instance, and back in my hideout it's buttery smooth.

Somehow it fixed itself, went back to being just as smooth as the hideout after maybe 10 minutes.

Hideouts are not on the same servers as maps. Sounds like you got slotted onto an instance server that was overloaded. They're pretty thin servers, last I heard they used single cpu instances but that was way back when Chris would talk to us.

Oh god no, the first time it was only a 50 splinter Olroth fight, I've since collected more and am now in the 150 splinter version, and the instance is bugged to have unplayable lag just like the first one...

What is it with the Olroth instance? I've had no issue in any of the excarvation maps I've played in between (or the 100 splinter Olroth fight for that matter).

Guess I'll tab out for 15 minutes and see if it fixes itself like last time.

It's been half an hour and my 150 splinters are still unplayable.

Fixed itself after about 35 minutes.
