NTT Sacramento Node Still causing lag spikes.

[HyperiusUltima]

For those wondering, we were doing fine on patch day. Though, now that we're coming on the weekend, we're back to our localized problems with NTT.

I'm not sure what's going on here because it seems like there's a major problem with Sacramento again, now with it timing out. I even checked ARRStatus and the ping is relatively bad between all data centers, being 100+ ms. And for the moderators, I am connected directly to my modem and did a few tracert commands to make sure it wasn't just a blip since I was also lagging hard during Enuo(making it almost unplayable in an EX Raid Setting).

While I understand the previous thread for this was moved to Closed Concerns, I think this should stay as an ongoing so we can report.

So, apparently it changed from The Sacramento Node to the Dallas and Los Angeles Nodes that are having issues now connecting from East Coast.

Game's heavily unplayable because of these nodes messing up hard and it's turning me towards trying a VPN.

Trace Route done this morning - the same nodes are still causing issues and creating unplayable lag without a VPN.
