If you’re still having issues, try this solution:
https://help.guildwars2.com/entries/28148006-Repairing-the-Game-Client

That’s great and all by why does it only happen at certain times of the day.

And I’ve never had to repair to get back in. I just keep trying to log-in until it finally works. Takes about 15 attempts some times, but it always gets me back in eventually.

I’m not buying the “you need to repair the Client” spiel (no offense).

Well, for me no amount of relog attempts has ever worked (yet) only the repair/.dat replacements did. I can’t speak for everyone but in at least some cases that might need to be done, or (especially since the .dat delete is fast) it may let you get back in a lot faster than spamming logins.

I agree to an extent though that repair client is a doofy workaround. Its sort of like when windows acts like garbage and the solution is reboot or reinstall. But right now seems to be what we have to work with. Maybe they cam comp us some extra days of HW event or something to compensate for the tech fail…

Happened to me again just a few minutes ago, booted out of fighting the Horror in lab mid-fight.

I tried the local.dat deletion after 2 failed relog/exit attempts. It did work (so far) and was faster than -repair.

That said the fact that the game has put itself int funkState twice in 1 day requiring the user to do/fake repairs is really pretty bad. I hope they fix this stuff soon or at the very least give the right error so the average person knows what to do.

Update:
I see the thread under other subforum for this issue where some people are saying a -repair run solved the problem:
https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/support/bugs/Unable-to-Login-Disconnected-After-Map-Change

This seems to have worked for me as well. I have now logged in and also changed 1 map. Don’t know if that will be 100% but seems to work for now. So:

1) Fixable in this case with https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/external?l=https%3A%2F%2Fhelp.guildwars2.com%2Fentries%2F28148006-Repairing-the-Game-Client (at least on win 7)
2) Still not at all a network error

Hope the repair works for anyone else stuck today.

Getting this since patch yesterday evening. Woke up this morning and tried it, still happening many hours later on the other side of maintenance window.

1) App has been restarted, more than once.
2) I have a 2nd account with some lowbie alts that I tried and it WORKS (both should be on Henge of Denravi for home world)

So this is NOT a “network error” at least not right now. Something from being logged in or attempting during last nights SNAFU has left my actual account in a bad state.

First off, I’d love if this got fix obviously since I can’t play on mains and can’t play HoT. Secondly though, someone is throwing the wrong exception in the depths of the code on this. Might want to look into tweaking your error checking to report more accurately as clearly there is a condition claiming network error that is not so much of one.
