Guild Wars 2

If a player enters the HoT starting area/instanceand maps over to anywhere in the open world (e.g. Divinity Reach) then tries to map back they will loose the ability to play the instanced content and apparently loose the ability to enter HoT altogether. This is completely unacceptable. How kitten difficult would it have been for you to put up a dialog stopping the player from leaving instance? I ended up using transmutation stones and 30+ minutes creating a character only to have it locked out of HoT. Unbelievably sloppy design ArenaNet. Yes, I realize the non-beta implementation will probably allow the instance to be toggled. Story panel is removed from HoT beta so this is not possible. I would like my transmutation stones back for other beta characters. Incredibly sloppy, incredibly disappointing design. How difficult would this have been to foresee? How little effort to inform a player they are leaving an instance on map travel? What a disgrace.
