Ok so a few things. I get that you’re upset, I am too. I’m new to the game, this is my first time through so I don’t even have access to my mastery trees yet. This bug is preventing me from working on my character’s progression. That being said, coming on here and insulting the game’s employees isn’t the way to go about getting your problem fixed.
Tech support employees are trained to assume that whatever problem comes in falls into one of two categories; either user error or user equipment failure. Most situations that tech support employees have to deal with fall into these two categories, so it is a way for them to save time if they assume this first. That’s why I have reported four different times that the game has kicked me from the quest, so that I can show a trend. That being said, even if they didn’t assume that they probably can’t help with this kind of problem.
The problem with these quests is probably with their scripting. Something is going wrong with the quest causing it to eject players from the instance, causing a DC. If this is the case, the only way to fix it would be with a patch, or at the very least a hotfix. Tech support employees can’t do that, the most they can do is pass what we tell them along to the team in charge of patches and hotfixes for them to fix the problem.
I have been having a lot of trouble progressing through the story lately due to constant disconnects. I don’t seem to be having any trouble with any of the other programs I use, and this only seems to happen after a cutscene has played. I play through the quest up until the point where I rescue the second set of researchers and all is fine. After this, however, seems to be where the problems start.
I have disconnected three times while attempting this mission. The first time was when I got to the end of the cave with the bone wall. The cutscene played with Trahearne as normal, but after it ended the game disconnected me. The second time I had gotten out of the cave and defeated the boss. The cutscene played and, once again, I was disconnected. The final time I went through the whole quest again, and was getting ready to fight the boss. I stepped out of the cave, the cutscene started to play, and I disconnected again.
I’m not sure how to proceed. I’m getting tired of blindly playing this quest over and over again hoping to somehow slip through it, but I guess that’s what I’m going to have to do. Again, I don’t have any problems with any other programs, and I never get disconnected while doing anything else in the game.
EDIT: I have tried an additional time since I posted this. I got DC’d once again right before the boss.
EDIT2: Ok so I have successfully made it through the quest, and I will now try to explain what I think allowed me to do so. Going through these quests I will often skip over enemies if they’re not directly in my path. I’ll just keep going to the objective. I’m not sure what made me think about this, but for my final attempt I decided to make sure that everything was dead before I went into each of the cutscenes and lo and behold I didn’t get kicked. For people who are having problems similar to this on any quest, try thinking about things that you could do differently during the quest. This is a problem that, while a lot are having it, not everyone is having. Meaning that there are ways to clear these. It’s just a matter of creating the correct circumstances to make it work.
