desync during scenario

[Kylashandra]

Greetings, went through the search/recent posts and didnt find anything about this issue :

sometimes during scenario, I get what looks like a desynchronization from server : everyone disappears from screen, I can still run around indefinitely (no crash nor game shutdown occurs) until I kick the client, while at the same time my teammates tell me through TS that my character is still ingame (and they have no issue at all, being in the same scen). I seem to be the only one with this issue in my team of 5 friends, I don't get it all the time but like once every 4 or 5 Scens.

Any ideas ?

it is pretty common and many ppl experience that. Afaik there is no way to fix it. I wait like 20-30 sec and if nothing change just crash the game and so on

ps it doesnt happens only at sc, i get that even on wcs and at times where i am out of combat

Ok, thanks for the answer, it felt odd as I seemed to be the only one in my group to be affected by this issue.

sometimes a reloadui fixes this problem

Thanks a lot.

I was worrying because I did not see anyone talking about this bug since a long time. Tickets on Github are being closed, no one is talking about it on forums or in game. My mates and I were starting to think we were the only ones having it. In my opinion, this is currently THE most annoying or experience-breaking bug on the server.

It occurs randomly and cannot be reproduced when wanted. Some players have it really often (like 4/5 times a day), some others may never have it. It seems to be happening more often during scenarios, but that's not always true.
Today, during 8 scenarios in a row, someone in my group got it.

I know devs are working on different things and this one may not be really the easiest to fix, but it would be interesting to know if devs consider it also as a "Major" one.

By the way :

• Are there other ways to get back in game when it occurs ?
• Does anyone have a way to avoid it ?
• Does anyone know what could cause this ? Or is it randomly happening to some players but not others ?

There is no way to avoid it. There is no way to predict when it happens.
It is happening all the time, sometimes it just does not discconnect you, sometimes the client cant handle the packet and you get thrown. Alt+F4 is the fastest and easiest way to get back into the game. You can stay ingame and may be lucky and the game syncs back in, but that happens in1 out of 20 DCs, the other 19 times the server kicks you anyways. And the re-sync can take up to 5 minutes or more. Time in which you would be logged back on as well

Yes, thats exactly what my mates and I noted.

In my opinion, the fact that some players never encounter is interesting. I've been asking them what could be different between their client and mine, their ISP, addons or anything else, but I couldn't find any clue yet.

Does anyone know the number of the issue on Github about this bug ?

Thanks !

That "Cannot fix yet" tag is scary, but thanks anyway.
