I am having the same issue as well. Can log into pvp and hc realms but no N'Zoth :( :(

Same is happening to me, can't log in, tried reinstalling, adding new exclusion in fire wall, flushing DNS.

literally any type of update would be great. I was able to log in early yesterday and play for a few minutes until the DDOS, but then later that night (when its usually smooth) i couldn't log into n'zoth. it sure feels like an IP block. I just ended up playing on the HC server for a little bit.

For those running linux who are able to login to pvp/hc but not pve

add the IP to your /etc/hosts file

185.165.170.59 normal.octowow.st

If it fixes the problem, the issue is DNS not the server

edit: remember it's there so if the IP changes again you remember to clear it

For windows, the file is in C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc

Open notepad as Administrator and add the same line ^^^.
This made things work for me. of course if the IP ever changes, this hosts entry will have to be removed...or manually changed to the new IP address.

Thanks for the info and it work for me without using any VPN connection.
I think the DNS or routing is mess up so how.

Changing my ProtonVPN protocol to Proton Stealth worked for me. Over-aggressive DDOS protections definitely seem like the issue here.

I tried this but it didn’t work. Do I need to restart my pc afterwards?

Are you using Linux?
Try ping normal.octowow.st and does it reply with IP 185.165.170.59 ?
