Also, it becomes not a server problem, but a networking one, when the amount of people reaches a certain point. You can only transmit and receive so much data, and if you have to transmit that data to every player that is currently in said instance, it gets multiple time higher.
the people "dc'ing" she is referring too is the zone instance lag that gives everyone the DC symbol. they dont actually DC.

The problem RN is that when Ixion spawns, the zone becomes inaccessible. It's a problem.

I even get the DC symbol and im rocking a top end PC..its server side. If the server cannot handle the amount of data coming and going then....?
