Latency Spike ONLY when using skills on a pack of mobs
I am currently having this kind of issue where during in town, the connection is fine and consistent, about 60~80ms ping.
when i run maps it's all fine, and when i encounter monsters, it's all fine as well. but the moment i start shooting my lightning arrow, my latency spikes to over 1k ms. weird thing is my download/upload speed is fine when i tried speedtest.net. can anyone here help with this issue?

Speedtest is useless in these types of situations as it only tests your speed :)
Can you go here: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1377789 and post the results for us? Make sure and run it for 300-500 at least. Also, make sure it's running while you have your issue as that will help narrow things down. Also, can you throw your dxdiag up as well. Make sure and put it in a spoiler tag as it's going to be a huge file.

Hey x1o8x!
Are you sure this is network lag, and not a graphical lag issue? For your in game graphs that come up when you hit F1, do you also see your frame time jump paired with a dip in FPS of any kind? "I would have listened... I would have understood!" - Scion

We still need a dxdiag, and are there any other applications or utilities running besides PoE, and besides standard windows services?
When you create a new windows user and use that profile to play PoE, does it all happen the same way? |

" That kind of sounds like the game is forcing Predictive mode for some reason. It feels smooth because its not constantly locking your character until feedback arrives from the server, it just lets the client predict what is happening. If you're getting a decent experience out of it, might be worth switching over and testing for a while (with a softcore character) to see what kind of desync issues you get. WinMTR is definitely worth doing. == Officially Retired 27/02/2019 ==

Hm, well the first problem is here: (issues spoiler)
| 10.213.146.106 - 1 | 125 | 124 | 36 | 56 | 120 | 49 | | 202.179.117.61 - 2 | 121 | 119 | 36 | 55 | 90 | 43 | | No response from host - 100 | 26 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | | No response from host - 100 | 26 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | | 202.75.188.89 - 3 | 117 | 114 | 34 | 54 | 101 | 46 | | 202.151.252.197 - 4 | 113 | 109 | 37 | 58 | 115 | 78 | | No response from host - 100 | 26 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | | No response from host - 100 | 26 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | | 172.22.144.78 - 5 | 109 | 104 | 36 | 58 | 182 | 50 | Have a look in the first column - that is persistent packetloss through the middle of the trace. It looks like you're getting some data management from the ISP, as well as lag spiking. Same thing is occuring in your non-issues spoiler: | 10.213.146.106 - 2 | 123 | 121 | 37 | 55 | 130 | 49 | | 202.179.117.61 - 2 | 123 | 121 | 32 | 52 | 113 | 52 | | No response from host - 100 | 26 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | | No response from host - 100 | 26 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | | 202.75.188.89 - 3 | 119 | 116 | 0 | 54 | 85 | 59 | | 202.151.252.197 - 1 | 127 | 126 | 41 | 55 | 85 | 50 | That'd be your most likely culprit. As to why the issues are tangible during your non-party instances, I'm not sure. I'd open up your UI menu and see if POE is jumping into predictive during these parties.

Would you mind running WinMTR for longer? Like 500 or more? The discrepancy between the tests might just be the small sample size.
