Guild Wars 2

I was doing Arah path 4 for the first time with a pug today. I opened the dungeon, took us ~2hrs+ and we are at simin. Then I was suddenly disconnected from the game and gw2 would not allow me to log in. I tried and tried and gw2 only allow me back in after ~15 mins.

By that time, my party had kicked me and the dungeon closed. I feel very sorry for them because simin really need a full group to do and I can’t blame them for kicking me. However, doing that cause them to lose all their progress, 2hr+ for everyone.

When the dungeon opener leave the party, the instance should stay open. Please fix this bad design asap.

Theyve already said they were going to fix this, too lazy to find the official response atm.

Correct me if I am wrong please, but I am pretty sure this has been fixed.

As the dungeon starter, if you disconnect then your group will remain in the dungeon as long as they keep your disconnected character in the party. What kicked them out of the dungeon was them removing you from the party. I’ve had this happen before when I didn’t realise the disconnected person that I was kicking from group was in fact the dungeon starter.
Like i say I could be wrong but I’m a little sure about it.

You are correct. Still this doesn’t solve the problem if the disconnected person can’t reconnect fast, especially when playing with pugs and having no way to inform the other members about the situation.

Still I’m actually happy Anet hasn’t rushed the fix for this because i feel they have to carefully think how the system works in the future. Rushed fix would probably soon be abused in one way or another.

This has not been fixed. I was in Arah some night last week and after a rough run we beat Lupi and the dungeon leader left right after to do a “Bounty” and we were all kicked andr received no credit. So yeah, I hope they fix this soon.
