I just did a 45 minute long story instance for the second time. The first time, I dc’d in the middle of it and logged back in to see I’d have to start it all over. I didn’t play again for 2 days.

Now, tonight, I got through 95% of it. I was at the very last NPC conversation when suddenly the game boots me to character select. I logged back in a split second later to once again find myself having to start the mission ALL OVER AGAIN. I now have no desire to play for another few days. It’s so god kitten tedious.

Why is this a thing?

I agree, they should do something about this, maybe add some kind of checkpoint system that stays active for 10 mins after a DC? I recently got DCed during the Zhaitan fight… -_-

This has to be one of the most requested features that was not carried over from GW1, and it is baffling why it hasn’t. Be it a programming issue or I have no idea what is holding it back it needs to be a priority.

The ability to reconnect to instances and even open world maps (since there are often numerous different copies) has been needed for ages. Have no idea why it isn’t a priority since DCs/crashs plague so many players. :/

Exactly. I also hate it when I do a huge meta, I get DC and then the map is full… I should have a “reserved” spot on that map for at least 5 minutes.
