Guild Wars 2

Question:
How can a party resume playing in a dungeon – at the level reached before leaving – when that party is dragged out of the dungeon by one party member.

Problem description:
Not every party member is empowered to take the whole party with him by leaving a dungeon. That special ability is only attributed to the person in a party that goes in first. It seems that the effect is triggered by that person when he switches to another character.

In several threads here in this forum I have read that you have 15 minutes time to replace a player or to wait for a disconnected friend. In that time you can also leave the dungeon and try to find another person willing to replace the lost party member. We have seen that this reconnect/replace mechanism is working in several previous guild events.

What happened though this time is that the one being graced (without knowing himself) with this special power switched to another character, we even asked him to switch as we did character class switches already many times before without any problem… To our surprise we were all kicked out of the dungeon. But to our even bigger surprise we did not manage to get back in/resume our almost completed dungeon run. We tried to go back in, but whatever we tried the dungeon was reset.

What should we have done to get back in “our” running instance in these circumstances?

switching to another char will reset dungeon. do not do that unless you want to reset the dungeon.

Is that something you know or that you think? Switching to another charcater worked fine many times in the past and I neither remember that this was considered to be an exploit nor that it was fixed / made impossible in a recent game update. But that’s easy to test.
I will come back with the result.

i know that. if the person that entered dungeon logs out he can log back in and continue, but if he logs to a different character then dungeon resets and everyone gets kicked out. i use reset dungeon by loging to different characters in case someone starts story mode by accident while we want to do explorable.
