Bad lag again with NTT's NA server network

[Rekts]

So far so good, let's see if it lasts come reset day when people start logging back in lol

[Elizara]

Yeah Rekts. Let's hope. Tho yeah, I DID find a bug on my island (the programming kind..) which I reported, which I wouldn't of before since I wasn't doing much crafting which means no furniture on my island to speak of until yesterday.

Connection so far appears fine again, though I have been noticing transient 100ms spikes that last for small seconds of time before returning to normal. I've been raiding and doing things off-vpn and no true problems persist. So, that's nice, maybe.

[Alajandria]

No more issues here as well so far.

[Janyd]

Same, all's good so far.

Remember, there is hotfix maintenance early Tuesday morning (2AM to 6AM Eastern), so we'll see...

Stay vigilant.

Either the lsanca07 node is completely broken (timed out), or today my traffic is not routed to that node. More or less, this is a normal tracert for me. Cautious optimism may be allowed!

hotfix maintenance

Most likely to fix the knockback resist exploit. SE fixing bugs in their game =/= NTT's node issues.

Keep the pitchforks sharp and the torches burning, however.
Still not buying FF16 or F7R2 until this is 100% confirmed fixed.

Page 101 and counting!

If anyone was going fanfest should still bring up the node issues because they can't run the severs for 10 extra years with this problem.

Knockback Resist Exploit?

Knockback Resist Exploit?

This exploit here: https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodes...851b0067609498

There's also a separate knockback problem in the 6.4 Trial (normal/extreme), so I'd imagine that's on the to-do list.

I figure that's what's being addressed first and foremost. They're also likely working on a client-side fix for sound issues I've seen around.

As for the nodes, still holding steady at 58ms to 60ms on my end today.

It's plausible that AT&T changed the routing up a bit. That or some nodes being offline may be a blessing in disguise.
