Now, I know that some GY’s in shadowlands are a bit further away from where you die, and I know that is how it always has been in the past xpans as well, BUT there is one that is totally wrong and needs to be changed.
If you are Night Fae and die in a certain area of Tirna Scithe it sends you to a graveyard in The Forgotten Pools, an island south of the Ardenweald, and the ONLY way to get back to the main area is to take the 10 minute rez sickenss, then take the mushroom network. This has happened to me several times already and it seems it only started happening since I upgraded my travel network to Tier 3.
I think this is kind of unfair, not only are you stuck with rez sickness, but you are locked from playing for 10 minutes, unless you like getting 2 shotted by everything.
I don’t mind GY’s being further away from where you die, but this one GY needs to be changed so if you die on the mainland you aren’t sent to this island.
Yes, that is true, BUT when you have a limited amount of time to play each day, 10 minutes is a long time. Not everyone plays 24/7, some of us work for a living.
I tried that, but the island is so far away when you go off the edge, there is no water or anything to travel across, you drop off and it takes you right back to the GY.
I don’t think that’s possible to be put in a off-shore gy. But then if you die underground for Mushroom Man quests, you can’t get back to your body either. If it happened to you, put in a bug report or post on Bug Report Forum. Try to do an Unstuck request - you’ll end up in Org but save you from the rez sickness crap.
It is possible, it happened and I already put in several bug reports and talked to a GM, but nothing was of any help. Sometimes it seems they don’t care unless it is a PvP or Mythic+ problem.
Each of the bonus areas Marasmius gives access to has a graveyard, to make sure you’re not SOL if you die in any of them. If the game determines you have access to the graveyard (some are covenant exclusive I believe), and it happens to be closer (in terms of raw distance) than another one, that’s where you’re going.
True, there’s a graveyard but if you die underground for Into The Unknown, you can’t use the mushroom portal down there to access your corpse. You can only use the unStuck option or gy rez (which is an expensive repair bill cuz it dura-hits everything in your bag.
This is contrary to this game’s death-rez mechanics since vanilla. We could always get to our corpse to rez…even in the fatigue zone where you die right away (long stubborn bout of corpse hopping). If the corpse is unreachable, they always had a cliff edge or something that allows you to rez. In SL, there’s at least two places where you can’t self rez.
We’ve had multiple ongoing complaint threads on Bug Report for months.
Same sort of issue with this OP, regardless of the “I work so I can’t waste time over this” Karen-ish statement. It’s still a problem.
I resent being called a Karen…I find it offensive and very rude!
I work 6 days a week, 13 hours a day, in healthcare, so don’t say I am using it as an excuse statement. We are quite busy unless you haven’t been able to follow the news! The precious little down time I have I like to play the game for an hour or so before I have to sleep and get up to go back to work. My days off I take care of my great aunt who is very old, so the little bit of free time I do get to play, I prefer not to waste it.
Read my post again, I didn’t call you an anything. Just your interjection of “my time is more valuable” type of comment. Don’t know if you realize I was commiserating with you over similar bugs in the game.
Of course we’re all busy. I work full-time too. I game when I can and sometimes things don’t go perfectly smooth - like everything else in life.
I understand your frustration and that there IS a need for Blizzard to fix these things and I’m sure it’s on their to-do list (which is long and complicated). Their fixes aren’t “just click and paste” when it involves coding.
You have to realize that your life situation is uniquely yours and nobody wants to waste more time in a time-wasting video game. Some of us do what we can and then try again tomorrow (eg. win 4 BGs this week).
Life > game. If your game takes away valuable time, find something else to do that’s not quite so frustrating.
