Bug Description:

It has been reported many times, but I will report it again. My server is new, fresh, and running on a real dedicated server (not a virtual one). Currently, only 3-4 players are playing on the server throughout the day, so the hardware behind the server is relatively dull and underutilized. However, what keeps happening are spontaneous and severe lag situations. I cannot confirm NPC desync, as it generally appears delayed by seconds:

  • Dealing damage
  • Receiving damage
  • Stamina regeneration
  • No smooth movement of NPCs…
    …more like teleporting Seconds-long motionless animations from NPCs So far, we’ve only encountered this problem near Asagarth.
    I can’t reproduce it, but I somehow suspect that it’s related to a higher density of NPCs.
    Purge itself runs smoothly and without lag or desync issues.

By the way, I’m also logging network performance, and it behaves relatively normal. The available 1 Gbit connection is not even close to being fully utilized, and in terms of memory usage, only about 10 GB out of 64 GB is occupied until the server is restarted.
