And I had zero issues double weaving ogcd abilities at an average 90 ping before the data centre move. It was impossible to do more than one without clipping at 175 ping, but 90 certainly not impossible.

Thanks, will try that.

Most people who do are going to have issues now. If you don't raid, you don't understand. :rolleyes:

You don't even have to aim for server/world firsts to feel the hit on such a high ping. Just being decent at your job will start to become difficult.
Most jobs require double CD weaving, which is POSSIBLE, but so much easier on a ping less than 100...

From 160-180 to 220. I haven't checked how it is in game yet. I will in about six hours after work. :)
I was quite comfortable with the old ping and I hope the change won't be too noticeable.

I get a 33ms average ping to this IP from Los Angeles.

If you don't mind me asking, but which data center is this for? The ones on arr status for Primal doesn't work for a ping test. This one did and I got 88ms from ohio.

Test IP for WoW US Central is 24.105.62.129.

For reference, I got 30ms to Aether-Montreal, 105ms to Aether-Sacramento, and 42ms to WoW US Central.

Any of the ones that are 204.2.229.x are the new Sacramento ones. 88ms is a good number to have.

What is the geographic location of the wow central?

I have 103 ping now and the only noticeable difference is slight lag when trying to fit two oGCDs between one GCD. Like, if I want to do the triple Fell Cleave opener inside a berserk window and still put up Fracture, I need to hit Berserk almost immediately whereas before I could delay in my a second or so. It sucks, but it's something most can adjust to.

I do not raid savage. Simply because raids aren't happening while i am online. I really don't care about server first, i do have real goals in real life (i know, this might sound harsh, but that's how i see things).

I do play other games that are very ping sensitive (shooters) and i do play them on NA servers as well with an avarage ping of 130. No problems.

I say it again: I am NOT happy with that server move... I'm a girl, i don't adapt to changes well... In fact i am kinda goatish when it comes to changes and right now i wanna bite my desk for the 170ms ping. But what can i do? I can tell SE that i hate it but that is not gonna change a thing, sadly.

I coudnt be more disapointed why do something like that withouth giving people any option , especially people who didnt had an option to begin with south america people.. , also please stop this bs of eu players shoudnt be here or whatever , this doesnt make any sense , they choose this server because it was the better option at the moment , the one tho blame is the company not the person , and if na people were in the situation of eu people all we can hope is eu people understood and give support for then to have a good experience aswell , literally why would you want someone to have a bad experience playng a game they paid and pay for montly?
