HC without Scroll of Escape is unplayable (disconnects and bugs)

I dont understand why Blizzard decides to nerf the SoE drop. I struggled in previous seasons with disconnections until the SoE was fixed. I stopped dying for disconnections or lag from Blizzard servers. Now with this low drop we are again screwed. I just lost my Lvl 60 character, I had lag, most probably from the server itself, and I exited the game. Of course when I returned my character was dead.
I heard also from other players bugs with bosses which caused their death without being able to escape.
It seems that blizzard does not care about HC players…
Very very frustrating, I had a lot of expectations in the VoH, I will stop playing until this is corrected…Hope Blizzard fixes in the next patches…
PD: Playing softy is not an option for me, not fun at all

Yes I am attempting t3 bosses only because too afraid of trying T4 boss without the scroll. This is on a non SB class

Lost my character yesterday on Duriel T3.

Killed Zir on T2 very fast, so thought I could try Duriel on T3. But I quickly found out that my damage was too low. With no scroll I knew it was my last fight.

I already made a new character yesterday. Going to try a different build. Probably hit 60 this evening.

I am currently paragon 254 , over 80 hours of game, and a still at 0 scrolls of escape.
I think this is the 3rd topic i comment about it, i have never been this active on the forums, but i think this really needs some attention.
I played all seasons , start to end , this is the first time im really thinking about giving up, 80h of game and 3 dc deaths.
I really don’t like to “cry” for help but if nothing is changed ill eventually lose my 4th char to dc and give up.

Aye, I just lost my character due to a disconnect. lvl240, zero scrolls. Sad times.

Exactly what I am feeling. Currently 239 and 0 scroll. Game crashed several times and I was lucky enough to survive as every time it was right after I cleared things. Waiting for the shoe to drop.

I have only gotten 2 scrolls of Escape to drop since the start of S6, and I play about 40 hours a week.
I got the first one about 30 mins before the second, and a day after I lost my decked out character to a DC.
