Random Screen freezes

[Fieryfly]

I have had an issue since the Wednesday patch of the game randomly freezing. My clan mates and people I group up with people the game will close and the client has to be restarted. Its happened in instances, entering portals, and instances, its happened on solo stuff like Celestial Basin bosses. Thinking it was a error on my side I checked all connections and everything is fine, until I log in. My ping shoots up past 300 when its normally 15-35. it seems to me BnS has done something to effect so many people.  It really needs addressing. Its happening to many people, these seemingly random disconnects and game freezes are becoming more common. I have fiber internet, I almost never have connection issues.
