The blue DC dome?

I have seen two times a strange blue dome. The dome appears persistent. This time I made in-game bug report with a screenshot; I have screenshots from previous incident as well.

I call this the blue DC dome because 3-4 players vanished in that dome. When I asked the last player what is the blue dome, the player said he got a DC (disconnect).

This dome was in Straits of Devastation, in front of the north gate of Fort Trinity. Strange place to have a blue dome. The previous dome was in the beach after the Tequatl event. There I asked a fellow player if he could see the dome: no, he could not see the dome.

The idea about the blue DC dome is funny; a bug that is part of the 3D world. Why would the blue dome disconnect the players: I walked to this dome and the previous dome without disconnect. So did walk the player who could not see the dome at Tequatl place. If the orphan blue dome is a part of skill which affects other players, then the dome may not have the owner anymore (invalid pointer).

Puzzling.

I have three screenshots on this issue, showing the blue effect dome and two names of characters that vanished to the dome (in-game report screenshot may not have the names). Cannot post here because the screenshots contains other player’s names and my personal information, a little.

I would check this issue by checking logs of those two characters. And generally by filtering logs/metrics for characters who disappeared or had discontinuity (e.g., lag) in that place.

I didn’t take screenshots of two other characters that a bit earlier came together to the dome, and both vanished at the same time. Perhaps four characters vanished to that dome.

Logs/metrics should show how long time my char was at that place. Dome was there when I arrived and leaved.
