Constant Desync

I have been having constant lag spikes/connection stuttering for the past few days. Everything will stop, other people stop moving/using actions, monsters stop attacking, then the game updates and people quickly move/use action/attack. This issue is specific to FFXIV as I have no problems with any other games or online services. I was not having connection problems in the past. It is literally impossible for me to progress/participate in content with this issue as I cannot perform my role. I am not sure if this was caused by changes after the last update or because of high server congestion on the weekend but my server is supposed to be one of the less populated ones. Apparently other people have been having similar problems.
