PvP Lag / Delay

As myself and plenty others have noticed there is a large amount of lag and delay in battlegrounds. Open world PvP is fine, but in battlegrounds it's terrible. Every battleground I am in there are multiple complaints about delay and most of my friends and acquaintances have stopped PvPing all together due to these problems.

Outside of battlegrounds everything else is decent and playable from questing to PvE to open world PvP. This is a major problem and I hope this problem will be addressed sooner than later. Every post I read about Nostalruis on other forums or websites there is always mention of the terrible lag/delay in PvP so I know it affects a lot of people. I was very hopeful the lag would go away when the PvE server was released but it has not changed at all.

The melee "buffer" zone for a target and being in front vs behind I have noticed is terribly inconsistent in BGs. Makes life miserable for all us melees out there.

Yeah I agree. I have noticed it in World PvP and in BGs. Very hard to hamstring sometimes and my piercing howl( AoE slow) will sometimes not hit people even after I charge RIGHT next to them lol. I wish the developers or whoever would do something. I was VERY hopeful that the PvE server release would resolve a lot of issues. Honestly, I would resub to blizzard if they released older servers. I don't know what to do to bring more attention to this, I feel like a lot of people just answer with " I don't experience it " or something to that tune. Just because it's not happening for "some" players, doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

Oh, it's fine. I am able to land 1/3 shreds and if I'm lucky the player is AFK at one of the flags so I can get both the ravage and shred off.


But yes, in all seriousness: This seriously needs to be looked at.

It's brutally bad, the only thing I've found to work is just run past them a little bit and just swing your char around in a 360 and hope for the best.

The delay is indeed annoying as fuck... but doubt there's anything to do about it.

annoying for range and unplayable 50% of time for melee.

I sometimes wonder if they even read the forums or care about the lag. It almost seems like people will have to stop playing or leave the server so their population goes down for them to notice and start really trying to address the issue.

I'm debating leaving the server, what's the point of getting PvP gear and or PvE gear if you can't even enjoy the pvp aspect of the game.
