The last three days have had some very odd lag spikes that I admit have been quite scary. About every couple of hours, I would suddenly get a lag spike for about 20 seconds and then it'll go away. I've been lucky so far to have had them at points where I was completely overgeared for the area and survived them. I think the scariest moment came when I was soloing nightmare Diablo, though. I got caught in a cage because of it, but again, I was overgeared for the fight, so I was luckily able to get away, heal up at a shrine, and continue.
Interestingly, I haven't seen the spikes since this morning, though. I hope that whatever has been causing the problems has been found and fixed. Other than the last three days, the servers have been quite stable for me. My infrastructure related deaths have all been on my end -- two neighborhood power outages and two internet disconnections.
