Game unplayable for 2 days (WinMTR inside)

Please, I'm addicted to the game. My body is starting to itch like crazy. I need to play..

Massive lag spikes that last for 10 seconds when any monster is on the screen. It seems that this problem is only affecting PoE because other games work just fine. This problem started yesterday, and it's so severe I died 6 times.

I tried America and Australia gateways and the problem is so, so much worse. I usually play on Europe.

Are you sure it's latency and not video or resource issue on the PC?

Was that trace running/capturing while experiencing the issue?

Yes, it's latency. I've been playing the game without a problem for months.

The program was running during the problem. I press F1 and latency flatlines. It's latency. When the ping returns, it shows 1800+ ping and flatliens again. I can move in game no problem, but desync like crazy.

Do you want another report?

Yes please.

The reason I ask is because you're trace is showing no sign off latency issues... the latency meter in-game is not JUST latency, but takes resource and CPU load into account.

You can have latency issues appear in-game but it's really due to loading assets from hard disk.

I have the exact same issue as OP,game has been unplayble the last couple of days and i have idea what is causing all these lag spikes and disconnections
got the same problem here
Drakier, keep in mind that all other online games such as League of Legends work just fine. This is only happening in Path of Exile.

I've got the exact same problem like OP. I have recently switched to the same ISP as OP (I know from OP's diagnostics log), but I had a similar experience with old ISP too.

I'm by no means a network expert, but I doubt it's ISP-specific problem. I can't pinpoint the source, though. Is it a routing problem? region-specific?
:(

I really hope I can enjoy the new update when it comes out..
cheers
Chiming in to say I have the same problem and similar WinMTR tracing results
I've contacted support and was told it was on my ISP's end, something with routing into instances or whatever but after talking to my ISP for a while it didn't seem to be the problem at least on their end

which made sense since nothing changed regarding internet or computer settings in the last few months and every other online game I play is completely fine.
I really hope this gets fixed soon or we at least get a proper explanation since it seems to be happening to a lot of people besides me
