Im playing on PS5
- using wired connection
- the spike happens almost every evening time between 7pm - 9pm (gmt+8)
- I only using 1 character at the moment
- I never use any VPN
- Currently using Singtel 10gbps internet speed

You are not alone, ever since patch 7.41, the DDOS attack and lag makes it almost impossible to raid.

Trace route always points towards an issue with a node from akamai technologies.

yeah i agree, hope they could do or fix something about it soon ><
