Is your Wintersgrasp AKA Winterslag?

[pinotnoir]

For weeks wintersgrasp has been unplayable on Magtheridon. I dont know how it does on other servers. What happens is our server chugs along at a snails pace making it unplayable. You cannot attack anyone because you are standing there watching people warp all over the screen. The attacking side wins every match because a line of vehicles mass near the walls and spam the attack key. Eventually they will bust the walls and win. You cant form any type of defense because trying to fight something in the lag fest is impossible. I still go there for the marks but trying to complete the pvp daily quest may take you a few battles. Last night I entered wintersgrasp. I joined a raid. Then spent almost 10mins trying to travel from the horde flight guy to the keep because the server was lagged up. Just as I finally reach the keep the battle ends.

It's getting worse and I wonder if the other servers suffer this problem.

Yeah, it lags... there should be a cap for # players in it.

It's getting worse

more ppl at 80... more ppl joining the area
its a lagfest on every pvp server for sure

I usually play wintergrasp at night time. after 3am it is usually not that many on and it is playable

Wintergrasp is quite laggy once the main area is infiltrated. Once it hits that stage I usually run around on the outskirts to avoid the lag and just pick up stragglers. It's the drawback to having 200+ people all fighting at the same time in a clumped location. DAoC had the same problem if anyone played that game.

Dentarg FTW! I moved off Lagtheridon and don't regret it one bit. I play WG with about zero lag and it still has a healthy amount on both sides. We usually have 1.5 raids going at primetime and very little lag. I actually like playing WG as opposed to most BGs.

eff that, when there's tons of people in the hold i always pop my trees and starfall! then i scream "f*** you, server! are you crying yet?!?! are you crying???"

Whats really funny is no matter what zone in Northrend you are in, you know the second the keep is attacked in Wintergrasp because suddenly everything lags a lot, everywhere. Its even worse when you are in Icecrown or Storm Peaks, since those zones have so much phasing

Wintergrasp has NO LAG for me on my server, but my server is small and a peice of crap. Finally got the hang of the place down so I now have 55 wintergrasp marks. Blizzard owes me 9 though cause it keeps glitching and not ginving them to either my main or my slaves.

What Fursphere said. Try with a single character and turn all the video settings down, it does help for me. Still rubber-band a bit but it's much more playable.

Also a protip for Wintergrasp. If you're attacking, get there before the battle starts! I like to parachute in from Icecrown and land in the base. You will almost always get a full 20 stack of Tenacity right away, which will last at least the first 30 seconds (that's how often the server recalculates it). You should have no problem getting enough HKs to rank up immediately, and after you die go get in a siege engine.
Now I really want to level my engineer up and see if Tenacity works on the siege damage from Global Thermal Sapper Charge...
