The constant disconnects

Okay, I have disconnected again and again and again from the game while running PotD and we just failed the floor 50 boss because of it. I am pretty sure this is still the work of a DoS against the game servers, and I know it is not my internet as I am not once losing internet connection when it happens.

It's happening to a bunch of people, at least here in Cactuar. Disconnects in the middle of PotD were a thing occurring pretty much since SB hit but they were few and far between, I think it's safe to say either another DDoS or server issues tonight, though, as they started occurring suddenly and with full force.

Kinda weird it's right before maint, though.

It's been happening to my bf and I a LOT.. we're on Primal, Lamia. I also got booted from Tonberry. Only happens when I attack things.

90002 error whenever I change zone, whenever I enter a duty(where it happens repeatedly and constantly to the point where I can't even fight one pack of mobs).
Just now I disconnected after I tried to hit the dummy on my own lawn.
My Internet is stable and not experiencing any issues; I'm a IT systems admin for a living, so I'm not some child on 56k from the antarctic.

Looks like the game itself is refusing your data though, at least from the errors I am experiencing. Usually when the disconnect starts, I continue to receive data from other players; I can see debuffs they put up, I can see stance changes and mounts - But I cannot do anything myself for a full second until it blacks out.

Disconnecting a lot while fighting, otherwise mostly safe

Many 90ks for me too. (Sargatanas) Pretty much the only thing i can do is just stand still. If i teleport, go on a mount and walk for a moment or do something else i just get kicked out >.>
Everything else works fine, internet etc. Just FF is not working >.>

Disconnects from Excaliber as well, if I teleport or after about 5 minutes, in general, I am booted from the game. Hopefully this is fixed soon!

Same on cactuar. Doesn't even load in correctly, doesn't load Fc or Ls info and won't let me talk to Npc.

As suggested by some other people with this issue, I tried using an alt I have never really leveled; and that character can teleport and change zones, as well as fight mobs without disconnecting.

My main can't do any of those things without 90002.

Same problem as others mentioned above, on Mateus. Everytime I mount up, enter a duty or instance (sometimes even just signing up for one), teleport/return or enter combat, I get nigh immediately disconnected with error 90002.

Long as I just walk from area to area not entering combat, entering DF and avoiding teleports, I seem to be fine. But then, that's basically 90% of the game I cannot reliably access sooo yeah.

Ditto on Mateus' cluster in instances. Doesn't seem to be happening in the open world/cities, only in instances. Got 90k'd 7 times in one run of Praetorium and twice during a Titan Hard run! (And I was MT...) - The other players were also reporting extreme lag spikes and some disconnects

EDIT: 90k's NOT limited to just instances. Getting constantly disconnected in Yanxia too now :|

having the same problem was ok but when i did a duty on my bard it happened multiple times... logged in about 8 times then kicked me within 2 mins. My internet is also fine...

I get a bunch of 90002 errors during PoTD, PvP and instances, drives me bonkers!

Yeah it has now started doing when i'm not in dungeons now guess ill have to go do something else cant even log in for 2 mins now ...:(

Same thing for me in Excalibur, but with a little plot twist. When in duty, I will disconnect normally at final boss. It will take ages for the game to kick me, and I can see everything that is happening around me, no freezing or anything, I see my party fighting; but whatever I do, is not uploaded at all. Normally I have to force exit the client (on ps4). Then log back in after convincing SE my character really isn't still logged in, and same thing again. Tried the new solo instance today to no avail... it's becoming very frustrating again :/ I'm also trying to level my ninja and since this happens at the last boss, by the time I can log back in, it's killed while I'm normaly hugging the floor and missing out on the exp ;;

Same deal. Can't run instances, can't even do gathering or anything like that. ANytime I change zone or do something more than just stand still, it kicks me immediately with a 90002 error :( Tested with other characters too, no luck :(

i cant run instance i try to heal i can cast like one or 2 heals then i dc

Same issue on Balmung, trying to progress in the story and I just cant :/

Same here. It seems to happen shortly after doing anything interactive with the world. On RDM, it's immediate. On Samurai I can go on for a while before I disconnect. I think it happens with cast-time spells.
World - Faerie
Character - Wikt Flamelily

I am farming dharmals for leather and getting disconnected every time I attack one. I can stand around fine, but the moment I do anything I'm gone. Was trying to do Royal Menagerie, but got disconnected from that, too, and that's no good as WHM.

Same symptoms throughout Omega. Can be standing and running about and deal no damage and not be targeted by my own team, or lying there dead and not be raised. Crappy.

Same as everyone else, on Siren here. Any use of actions, porting, doing any instance ect I get D/C and error 90002. Literally can't do anything other than walking.

FeelsBadMan

Same here. I log in and not being able to do anything, and then disconnected. I tried to search for SE position about it, but found nothing. They have to fix it!

same on faerie already a couple of omega runs i get kicked out while in the middle of battle please fix this

Lodestone said they fixed it, but I'm still stuck in south shroud...

For me, everything seems fine. It only happen to Sunete (comment above) and we play together always. Faerie too. If it can help, I'm from Canada and her from Italy if it has to do with regions. Maybe I'm just lucky and it has nothing to do with where we live.

problem with the server too. I cant even push throught the quest for omega without getting a disconnection past the elevator. And my connection has nothing to do with this. Not when it happens like 20 times at the exact same time ....

I've noticed that a lot of people that seem to be having this issue are EUs playing on the NA datacenter. Might that have something to do with it?

never had a issue untill today after maint and im playing from like 3 years now i dont really think and i mostly played on NA servers

Yeah. That could be the reason. I'm also an EU resident attempting to play on NA and having this issue.

The same thing occured to me. I'm EU playing on NA and I've already posted here. Is this a side-effect of some anti-DDoS measure? It's really disappointing, I hope it's removed after the DDoS ceases. I'd rather be able to play with my NA friends, but maybe I'll have to transfer off...

I'm from EU as well. First time having any issues, been playing since beta. It's just weird, my Fc tells me I don't even show as logged on, but it takes almost 5 mins to dc me. I can walk around the zone, but do nothing else, teleport and return don't work, if I try to walk into a neighbour zone I just get a black screen.
My alt on the same server is working just fine.

Same here, EU player on balmung since before EU datacenters existed.

Same on Balmung and also in EU :/ I hope they fix this

EU player on Balmung here getting constant disconnects too. This is most unfortunate.

Gotten two disconnects alone in a expert roulette as EU player on Exodus, and each time I attempt the Omega solo Duty I get DC'd as well.

Please fix this.

Still disconnecting if I pretty much do anything ingame. Clearly they didn't fix whatever it was for EU players

just did a expert run it went fine no problem like always without any d/c's or any lag

I'm from EU, started having this since yesterday. Just tried the solo instance for Omega and got dc'd again, well, still in the process... can't advance and the game doesn't kick me.

i am from EU too so we eu are the one who is doomed
