So when you die in said activity…you soon get a message telling you that you will be kicked for inactivity.

Was in a group that couldn’t rez our group member in time, and he got kicked from the instance, with no way to return.

Anet forgot to remove the inactivity timer. Two of my party members got kicked as well because we couldn’t res them fast enough.

5 minutes in we noticed this bug. QA would have found this if it was tested.

Thumbs down.

Not a bug.

People can take the waypoint even if the rest of the group is still in combat in Toypocalypse, meaning they can waypoint well before the inactivity timer becomes an issue.

Is a bug.

There’s no waypoint. Only a “Retry from Checkpoint” button, which only appears if the whole party dies within 50 seconds of the first.

ermmm, there’s a waypoint at the south of the map

and you can port to it when dead even if party members are alive or in combat

Let us buy vendor mats (eg spools of thread) in 250 stacks, end the excessive clicking.

True, I’ve done this myself a few times.

This one feels like a flower!..

I went in several times last night and the waypoint was not clickable in the mini or big map.

When the whole party wiped, I was ported to it, it appeared on the map for a moment and then vanished again.

So the bug must be in the rendering. Even double clicking on that area doesn’t activate the wp.

I haven’t even got to play it because I kept joining empty instances and being sent back to Lions’s Arch. .-.

Are you entering with a party? Because it won’t bring you into another party’s instance.

Also, I don’t think the Waypoint shows up on the Minimap, but it definitely shows up on the big map. Didn’t take me more than 10 seconds to go “hmm, maybe I should open up the map and look for a waypoint to respawn at”.

Yes, as I said I look at both the mini map and the big map.

There was no waypoint there for my whole party. I went in solo twice more and with 1 other person once, and never for anyone was a waypoint visible except for a couple of seconds after a party wipe.

What about the respawn? Did they remove this? I mean last year did you not automatically respawn?

Edit: Or WP if others sayt it is WP. If there is no WP for some and others have WP then it might be a bug.

Oh wow, that is bad…..

Good thing you can use the WP to respawn 10 seconds after dieing.

you can only see the WP when dead, so maybe lots of people dont get it.

For some people, opening their eyes could help, but its also true, that the WP is a bit beyond the Minimap so if no ones told you about it you dont know it.

As I wrote multiple times now, the WAYPOINT WAS NOT THERE, not when alive or when dead. I was dead and looking for anything to do to avoid getting kicked. I pressed M, clicked where the waypoint was, but nothing happened. The rest of the party didn’t have anything to click either.

However, the group I did it with today all could see the waypoint. So it seems to be a bug that happens to rare groups.

Then now you know it that there usually is a WP. Probably was bug. If it happens next time then restart immediately as not to waste time and then die near the end without being able to respawn and thus ruining it.
