Instance servers down

[Rumfro]

Duty finder is completely shot for me, aswell.

Faerie player here. Been waiting collectively over an hour to get into PotD. For some reason, a few guildies were able to get into Baelsar just fine, though they had a full group while I'm queuing solo for a matched party.

Can confirm with a full cross server team that I can not get into DF for the final story dungeon.

[Muziko]

Welp, even on just Midgarsomr its borked so looks like it might be the full Data Center then.

[Conando]

Yeah, I mean when it's an issue on Mateus of all places (my server), it's gotta be the whole data center.

[JillyBean]

Well, we have official word:

Due to the heavy congestion, we are currently experiencing issues wherein players are unable to enter instanced content on the Aether Data Center.
We are working to address the issue and apologize for any inconvenience this may be causing.

Duty Finder and instances are broken for me as well. Goblin of the Aether.

[Aladire]

What I never understood was why did not just move either Balmung or Gilgamesh to the other NA data center. This way, the instance servers would not be so congested.

[NovaTwiggy]

Player from siren here and the instance doesnt work either

We actually had a pre-made party ready to go on Zalera, and we waited about 30 minutes but the duty never popped. We figured it was either a server problem or there were an insane number of people trying to queue for instances and there was backup.
