I noticed that it would drop around 2-3 packets everyone session I ran pretty consistently. Its causing my to have small instances of everyone just standing still and nothing happening, and then goes back to normal. I have had a few experiences where for upwards of 10 seconds I have this as well. Where the game is running fine, but everyone just stands still and nothing happens.
I am having the exact same problem you are describing. There are also other threads on the issue written within the past week or less. I did read a moderator response to a thread featuring an image of a trace route that a player ran on their data center/server connection. Unfortunately, the response basically blamed the players ISP so it was not helpful. For my part, this is a new issue and nothing on my end has changed. This goes beyond a simple ping or latency issue. I'm getting in game freezes lasting several seconds at a time. I'm dying in dungeons because my game is freezing during boss mechanics. It's not just instanced content either. I couldn't even log out the other day because the game was just sitting there after the UI command rather than exiting the game world. This is 100% not normal.
