Over the past few days lag on EU servers has gotten progressively worse for reasons I am unsure of.

I am an NA player playing on the EU servers. This is not something of my fault as I have been here essentially since the game began and I have never experienced these issues before. In addition, this is not something pertaining to my IP either (speedtest link below).

What I am trying to figure out is if there are there any other players (playing from NA to EU or vice versa) experiencing these issues and if so do you know of a way to fix it?

I experience these issues when I play on the EU servers during their primetime as a NA player but I doubt it can be fixed on your end.

13 ms, drools over keyboard, must move to America. Dam 500+ ping to just about anygame. Finally found a good game I like with Australian servers and oh look, its filled with NA players exploiting the ping in their favor.

I get lag spikes in WvW, almost unplayable at times, anything +20 players is just hell on my friends pc, and wrecks our con as well. Playing from Aus I can tell you there are times where lag will spike, but I haven’t noticed it much. I know that spvp is a nightmare with 300-500ms when trying to save your but and getting downed by a guy out of range, then finished from longbow range after you vapor form away. Or someone finishing you when he is on a cliff an you are well below (e.g. I’m on the bottom of clock tower, he is finishing me up the top)
