So the server is unstable, that's fine, it's something we all live with for the great community experience here. What I hate, though, is dying when it lags out. At first I just accepted it, but now I think I may have uncovered an issue.
I build my characters rather defensively, and only really fight in areas where I massively outmatch the enemies (because of the XP loss on death). What I have found is that despite all this, I still die when the server starts to lag out. It is a server issue, because there is always a mass exodus of players.
The problem is, I am running around in a zone where the creatures need to roll a nat 20 to hit me. Yet time and again, when the lag stops for a moment (maybe after 10-15 seconds I get to do 1 order and then it lags 10-15 seconds again) my health DROPS. Am I to understand that I got crit a whole ton of times by one monster in the few seconds I lost control of my character? Time and time again, no matter the zone or thing I am fighting?
Get hit an inordinate amount of times while lagging.

Despite lagging, you can always see the battlelog, why not post it for review?

Re: Get hit an inordinate amount of times while lagging.
To anyone doubting the rigged dice, use Jeg's, go fight a dummy for ten minutes with game on hardcore difficulty and then turn it down to normal and do the same.
I, too, had reservations but after pulling combat statistics it was clear to me that there's some witchery afoot.
