Yes, it is usually pretty slow. There are some guides around to try and make it better.

It fluctuates in speed, it won't actually take 13 days but if it does, get your pitchfork.

It might be where you are downloading it from. I am about to finish the full download in roughly 2 hours. 10MB/s. Not your internet which you said was fast but whichever download server it's connecting to.

iirc restarting the launcher helps with that. Restarting the launcher until you get a moderate download speed

I believe one issue with most launchers is how close you are to their data center and servers, plus you by default need a pretty good connection since most launchers cap your download sleeps to avoid clutter and crashing on update days. I can usually get 10-15mbs when I update. I'd recommend trying a vpn and spoofing your location to be closer to their centers. works for most people

If you have slow download speed issue try this :

In command prompt as administrator, type in: netsh interface tcp show global

See if it's disabled, and then if it is, type: netsh interface tcp set global autotuninglevel=normal
