Why is it laggy in Eureka?

[Penthea]

Oh look, another golden nugget forum thread by he of the stellar social skills.

I mean, you can't really say that it's because of too many players because it's not laggy in Ul'dah or Limsa despite the crowd. I don't understand why it's laggy in Eureka...

Clearly you have forgotten that there are zero mobs, zero fates and zero combat in Ul'dah and Limsa.

This feels different. I'm getting lagged out everywhere now, including in Rhalgr's Reach or the Mist. It started in Alphascape. Where the lag was so bad I spent my last fight 99% kissing the floor and watching as the game would pause and then catch up every 30secs to a minute.
It feels akin to a DDoS attack again.

Pyros feels like a ddos attack in there every time entered it this week. Get zero lag outside Eureka.
