Lag killed me on the Ironman challenge!
I was killing some tunnel rats in Loch Modan low level questing and all of a sudden my connection lags and spikes up to over 900ms for about 30 seconds. i was spamming lay on hands i could but nothing worked according the the combat log. Can i get the death removed please? I don't think i would have died had there been a more stable connection.

I have made sure the organizer of the Ironman Challenge is aware of this issue and they will be able to give you a personal response at their next availability.
Welcome to the new decade! Let's hope the Roaring 20's come with just as much jazz, but a bit less prohibition and Great Depression.

Generally we don't reverse death due to lag client side but the server has been very laggy lately and it is possible that your death was not a client issue. Can you give more information please?

Re: Lag killed me on the Ironman challenge!
Yes, the name of the character is "Ramdorfe". When I had disconnected i noticed that the the server was online, but was getting no or little connection to only truewow. Normally, I get around 115 ms as I live in NA (which is very playable) and it rarely deviates much from that. I wouldn't say anything if I honestly thought this was a server issue and just restart but i have been working very carefully to get where i'm at currently (lvl 16 but hey it's rough) and would be terrible to try and regain all that lost time. Just lemme know what kind of info you need if anything else. Thank you
Re: Lag killed me on the Ironman challenge!
Server issues, we will always reinstate the character, but client lag issues we don't because there is no way that the fault is on our side and we'd get people crying for reinstatement at every random disconnect. Tbh lvl 16 is not very much, we have had people die at 59 and 52 when the cap was 60. Both of those had to start again. Imo, grit your teeth and start again. If you have a server glitch or die due to one of the server crashes that have been happening, I am happy to bring your character back into the competition.
