Here are the situations which I have suffered through on my VERY long road to lvl 7 (this is not including all the time frak kicked me or my team).

A player falls through the floor and lands in an unresable location while another teamate is somehow stuck in a wall and can’t get out. That player then doesn’t let anyone know until the rest of the team has suicided in an effort to help the last player.

TWICE I fell in spots in the jade maw map that locked my profession inside making it impossible to escape or even jump off the ledge to die. Once I was dead but one of my stubborn (among other words) teamates refused to suicide due to the repair costs, traping me inside the wall thing I fell through. Even if the team did suicide after there would be no way for me to die.

One of my teamates once fell to the bottom of the jade maw map and didn’t die.

One player walked into the Tom Cat boss room b4 everyone was ready (low lvl frak and he was new), effectively locking half the team inside and half outside. This was easily fixed by letting the boss kill those teamates then later suiciding but could have been resolved much sooner.

Swamp map, player gets trapped inside one of the zones and can’t be ressed until the walls finally decide to go down.

I’m sure there’s more but that’s all I can remember off the top of my head right now.

Also if not a suicide function how about you give us 1 wp at the very beginning of the map. That would make spam wping back unusable but still fix many of the previously stated problems.

Also this idea isn’t for me. Because of these points among other reasons, I HATE fotm with a passion. The 2 maps I like are jade maw and the asura cat one, the rest feel like the se dungeon. I avoid it like the plague and don’t even do the daily anymore. I USED to think it’d be a good way to get ob shards but now I’d rather just work up the karma.

To all you still doing fotm, you have my respect. Your tenacity and willingness to keep going in a dungeon that actively tries to screw you over is commendable.

I too have had the “kittenolol you got knocked out of the map” jade maw bug several times. Incredibly frustrating. It’s cost the loot from the chest. It’s cost me my time. Most importantly, it’s cost me being able to help my team.

Even if bugs like this continued, they’d go by the way side if Anet simply allowed disconnected/crashed players to re-enter the instance. A lot of issues with fractals would simply be watered down by that one simple fix.

is true but as with every bug in this game, anet has proved that they are not into simple fixes. Arah, everything about it for example.

On the Volcanic Fractal the walls near the first bat are walkthrough, and one of them has a hole you can’t get out of.

I used Whirlwind Attack while killing the bat, went through the wall and fell. My team then had to do the Shaman with 4 people, which at fractal 20 is pretty much impossible. Had to restart the whole thing.

Haha, funny thing is, same thing happened when I was helping some people at low lvl… we had a mesmer try to enter there and portal him out… it worked. As for myself – I have gotten stuck inside a magically reappearing dredge cart. Portal did the trick again.
