Blizzard Entertainment is "working hard" to grasp and revolve lag in World of Warcraft's Sanctum of Domination raid. A "burst of lag" during phase one in every of the Sylvanas Windrunner encounter, particularly, has led to numerous complaints from players.

Blizzard Entertainment is "working hard" to grasp and revolve lag in World of Warcraft's Sanctum of Domination raid. A "burst of lag" during phase one in every of the Sylvanas Windrunner encounter, particularly, has led to numerous complaints from players.

The explanation for the Sylvanas problem is rooted in an exceedingly "higher-than-usual" number of calculations being made at the beginning of the fight to "facilitate the complex mechanics" of the three-phase encounter, Blizzard said during a Blue post on Aug. 25. The WOW Classic TBC Gold devs are looking into ways to mend this but are being careful to not change the planning or mechanics of the boss.

"While this can be something that we predict we will improve over time, there'll still be some seconds of server lag on pull for now," Blizzard said.

Outside of the initial burst of lag within the encounter, the devs are "diagnosing" reports of lag in "almost every" phase of the fight. But they need yet to breed the lag in an exceedingly testing environment.

"In addition to examining our own internal testing, after we utilized our performance analysis tools on actual live raids that reported they were experiencing lag, the server always perceived to be functioning smoothly," Blizzard said.

The devs "eventually" discovered that the Sylvanas fight was "very messaging-heavy" and therefore the mechanics involved require sending "many frequent updates" to the player's game client.

The "unrelated change" to how the devs organize and distribute server processes across their server hardware, combined with the "accumulated changes," resulted in their server processes being more "concentrated."

These factors combined lead to the lag — the TBC Classic Gold devs think.

To combat the lag, the devs have deployed several changes to how they "distribute" server processes in WoW's most up-to-date weekly maintenance, which should help to alleviate the source of the matter. What ever, TBC Classic Gold is needed in the game. If you want to buy better gear and items, you can visit MMOWTS and buy more cheap WOW TBC Classic Gold.
