    Comcast in Michigan here

    I will say this: Ive been a customer of comcast for almost 5 years now and I've never had this lagging garbage until AFTER SE decided to move the game's servers to California (I forgot where it was before, but wasn't it in a more centralized location...?)

    Overwatch runs fine, Elsword is fine,warframe, GW2, OSU, etc etc. It only affects SE and when I ran a tracert, my ping was dropping a noticeable amount of packets on its way to the servers. So, whatever ISP SE is using, they either need to drop it in favor of another one or move the servers back towards a centralized location. I'll take 3 days of downtime over lagging every night from 10 pm est to about 1 am est any day. I even thought it was comcast and upgraded my internet to the fastest package they could give me just last week :/

    This makes raiding unbearable...I shouldn't have to tether my computer to my phone for stable internet

    It was in Montreal. They moved from the far eastern side of the continent to the far western side.

    I miss when it was there. I use to be able to actually enjoy the game without having to worry about rubber banding, lag, or disconnects during raid :x

    Makes healing 100000x harder than it should be

    While it's not ideal, you could try testing out a VPN service like Pingzapper or such. Usually very cheap and it's solved any lag on my end (Michigan, Comcast). I've been pinging better going straight to CA now that the servers are moved but up to Montreal I was an unfortunate member of having to route through Level 3.
