Anyone Know the Duty server IP address is?

I am getting massive lag but only once I get in Wp or w/e I really wanna do a tracert and see what my hops are like ect..

After running the level 30 ARC quest and unlocked BRD for it, I noticed a connection to .31 was in TIME_WAIT that normally isn't there (think others have reported that as an Adamantoise IP?). Don't know for certain if that was being used with just the instance server or not though. Still a lot of unknowns about their setup. Most likely the IP's we have are actually front-ends for clusters, so we never actually connect directly to the particular server we are using at any given time (all the zones and instanced data could be fed to us from the backplanes through the front-end IP). Could explain some of the wide variance in reports about the game's responsiveness.

That's correct, we just connect to the front end load balancer. Who knows where the connections route from there. The client keeps two TCP connections open to your world server (same port).

I would assume that for instances the LB cluster will just route to the local instance server in the same data center.
