I’m being told by many people that there is a flight path bug that is killing people. Some people are experiencing DCs mid flight that kill their character and others are having the griffin disappear out from under them.
Any word on when you guys are going to address this issue?
I first heard of this on the PTR so it’s not new. It’s been happening since early PTR days.
I know it will never happen because Blizzard is stubborn but you guys should be restoring characters that die to buggy mechanics/systems.
It’s one thing to die because you over extended your self or pulled to many mobs.
It’s entirely another thing for a games mechanic/system to fail and cause an unavoidable death.
So far I have not had this happen to me only my gaming friends. But it’s still unacceptable either way.
An ETA on when you are going to smooth this out would be fantastic being as how it should have never made it into the game to begin with.

DCs mid flight do not kill; you log in to same place on the same taxi-gryphon or manticore or whatever.
At least this is what I have experienced many, many times.
This on the other hand is lethal. Sometimes aborted instances … but why?
Always carry a parachute or … what.
None of it is new, it has happened since Vanilla.

Well I’ve been told both have resulted in deaths. Clearly it’s not always a safe way to DC. People have logged back in dead.
Ok, I’ll have to take more care flying then 
That’s an old bug that they claimed they fixed, but I doubt it’s fixed all the way.
It’s funny to see kids slowly starting to realize that dying to stuff that has nothing to do with the game play like DC or glitches sux and appeal was a necessity for this game.

No.
It never was.
Not for hardcore.
People want appeals/multi life mode?
There are other options for that.
Bye Felicia.

this is what they’ve chosen 
we shall see where the cookie crumbles
if you are level 45+ I can only recommend you to get noggenfogger elixir quest done and just get an addon telling you how long the flight from x to y is and if its only 2minutes you might aswell pre noggenfogger for 2min slowfall and then fly

What other options exist outside of nogg?

I’m playing just fine without an appeals system.

We’ll see what happens if/when you die to a glitch at lvl 59
Somehow I don’t think you got the constitution to handle it.

Parachute cloak, All potions giving damag immunity, Bubble, and so on
Perfect example of a survivorship bias. The system is always perfectly fine, until it happens to the person who was lucky until now.

Oof.
The potion is level 45.
The cloak requires 225 engineering.
The options make me afraid to take the flight paths now

Except I will never complain about a death in a video game.

We’re not talking about complaining about a death. You were talking about an appeals system and how you haven’t needed it. Wait til you die in the dumbest possible way due to a bug. You may not complain, but I’m sure if there was an appeal for specifically the thing you died to (like a recall for a car part giving problems to many people), you would rather use that than lose 40+ hours of leveling.
