I’ve seen a lot of server lag at some world events (particularly the Claw of Jormag) that gets so extreme that I am unable to cast skills. I suggest having a lower population limit on some of these maps (Frostgorge, Sparkfly) to help deal with this. There would still be more than enough players to complete the event even if a lot of them were elsewhere in the map due to these events’ popularity, but not too many as to overload the server. And perhaps, the overflow servers could retain the main map’s event timing so that the players moved to the overflow server could also participate in the meta-event.

Do realize overflow servers do not have the same events as the stock servers.

This will lead to 300+ people jumping on the dragon and only 50-100 getting the dragon.

Are you sure it’s server lag and not just you? I’ve never experienced server lag in any world event.

“Are you sure it’s server lag and not just you? I’ve never experienced server lag in any world event.”

It’s server lag, I play on HoD and often I’ll spot monsters spawning in and dying instantly AFTER an event is over – but this is an event with a couple of hundred people on it.
