During the Xera kill today, encountered a strange bug after wiping once. I got stuck in a permanent updraft and could effectively glide forever unpacking and repacking glider throughout the whole of the fight. Sadly my shadow play wasn’t running, but I did grab a couple of screenshots of just how bad it got.

Nothing major, when adding individual profession specific combat enhancements under the adjust team menu, the ranger’s glyph of empowerment is added when you click grace of the land and visa versa. Everything else seems to be in the right place though, and is the right way round in the adjust self menu

I’m also having problems connecting on my vpn where I don’t have the location saved i.e. it has to go through the sms authentication. It just times out and I have to repeat the process. It was fine before the patch. That said, for a few days now I’ve been getting errors saying cannot access login server

I also have the same issue, I have map load switch enabled and its just stuck on waiting for server. Server down? I have connected through a vpn, firewalls disabled, router rebooted . . . the works.

Running another few tests, it’s only the game client ping that spikes. Running colasoft capsa, cmd ping /t & tracert commands all give consistently low ping times in the region of 40-50ms & showing no issues with connectivity to the map ip and login server ip. Game client however still gives huge spikes up to 4000ms. Repeated this on several different maps with the same result.

I am also getting huge lag spikes over the last couple of weeks to the point that the game is unplayable. Anet seem to be doing their best to ensure existing players experience gets worse. Stood in Lions Arch this very second, average ping is 672ms, and just spiked to 1858ms. If I’m in wvw where ping really does matter, then I spike at up to 3200ms. This really needs sorting out as it is destroying the game. And allowing f2p players onto the already struggling servers as Rentapest said is only going to make matters worse. I work as an IT systems engineer, specialising in networks so I know when its my connection screwing up. Stop working on HoT and get these things sorted out so the game is actually playable for the expansion.
