“PoE2 – Extreme latency spikes ONLY in new maps (EU gateway)”

I’m experiencing severe latency spikes (from ~18 ms up to 20,000 ms) in newer / newly created map instances on Standard sometimes same on Vaal league

Maps become temporarily unplayable, often resulting in deaths due to sudden lag

Hideout, towns, campaign areas and older maps are unaffected

Issue occurs only in newer maps, sometimes intermittently

EU gateways tested: Frankfurt, Amsterdam, Milan etc, all eu tested

Router reset and client restart did not resolve the issue

Connection is stable everywhere else

Resetting the router between maps is not a viable workaround.
This does not appear to be a local connection issue.
