Need to vent about long instances...

Is there anything much more frustrating than spending an hour or more getting to the end boss in a long instance only to have the game crash or disconnect from the game servers for a few second or a bug prevent you from continuing, and then having to do the whole thing over from the beginning?

I realize this is mainly an issue for those soloing the LW or PS. And while I appreciate the staged respawn points when you are defeated within the instance, when you disconnect from the servers, there’s nothing in place to have you log back in to the instance. And once you leave the instance it completely resets.

I’m sure I’m not the only one to experience this. And while it’s certainly possible I’ve had a run a bad luck recently with this issue (3 of my last 10 LS or PS story instance runs have ended with an impassable bug forcing a restart or a very unfortunately timed disconnect from the game servers which had nothing to do with my personal connectivity), I can’t help but think there could be some very easy way to address it, which is having some way to get back into the instance with at least some of your progress saved.

Ok, end of rant…
