Extreme server lag in EU

I am experiencing severe server lag (jittering between 100ms up to 3000ms).
This happens extremely frequently.
In almost every case this seems to be permanently bound to the server instance i get.
After cycling through a couple instances, i might find a stable and playable one.
This also happens very often after dying, when a formerly stable instance would instantly become literally unplayable.
It might have something to do with the instance being repopulated by mobs?
Or it might have something to do with overprovisioning the computing resources of your cloud to more instances than it can handle?
Maybe have enough RAM for all your stuff?
I don't know.
It should be needless to say that i expect you to fix this crap.

Same issues here, also on EU Servers.
Hoping for a fix.
It definitely seems instance-related.

now its unplayable, im in act 3 and i have 5-10sec freezes where i die

Which servers do you, guys, play on? I've spent the whole weekend on the Frankfurt server and except for pretty rare hiccups (1-2 secs) I had no connection issues at all, playing with ping 20+...

Yes agreed, I about to ditch this unplayable mess. Dying because of server issues pisses me off.

I have played mostly on the US Washington server as a European this season. Even with the high ping it is a much smoother and reliable option. It's really a shame that GGG doesn't bother to finally fix the servers. This is going on for years in both games. And i don't want to hear about DDOS attacks anymore. All online games deal with the same nonsense but POE1/2 are the only games where problems are so prevalent and consistantly game breaking.

i have the same thing all over all european servers doesn't matter if frankfurt, paris whatsoever and yes, it seems to be instance related.

a few times i got one with my usual 10-20ms. after one map somehow it was gone and back to lag spikes. for me it makes even no difference if i switch to NA

Please fix your base game and make it actually playable and not an instance lottery before you do half-assed seasons, thanks.

Currently EU-Frankfurt server having 20-30 seconds (or even longer) timeouts...

So far it happens to my friend only when he plays in group
