Unable to enter instances

Any instance, they are all failing. Load screen sits there until I am kicked out.

I’m not seeing any other reports of this, Daenex.

I’d first try a fresh relog. If that doesn’t help, a proper reset UI would be my next suggestion.

Hi Orlyia I am having the same problem as well. I can walk into an instance, but trying to join using the group finder means I get stuck in a load screen. I can reboot but then I cant see any way to teleport into the instance to join the group and then have to quit grp

Have you tried a reset, Pserene?

Im having a similar problem as well entered into a Waycrest Manor had to run out to summon and now im stuck in a loading screen. All the others I was with couldnt leave because it said instance not found they were able to hearth but then died when flying back into Drustvar.

Having the same issue. Finally got into the instance but no one else was in the same one as me. Tried to leave, frozen again and kicked out multiple times. This is STUPIDLY frustrating.

BTW resetting the UI did NOT help either. Just an FYI. :smiley:

Thanks for the reports folks, the additional details will help. I’m passing this along.

Thanks for the reply Orlyia. I tried resetting UI, restarting the client, restarting the PC, disabling addons and restarting my internet connection, none of which resolved the issue.

If I queue for a group, I would join the group, the instance would load, but the loading bar doesn’t fill up and my character remains where I was before accepting the group. I know this because the ambient noise doesn’t change, so my character never enters the instance. The loading screen will just remain, with the progress bar blank and after a minute or so, the load screen will disappear and I am where I was before accepting the queue invite. If I try to re-enter the instance, same thing, and eventually the queue will drop me from the group.

What is interesting is if I enter the instances solo, that works fine.

Not sure if the same issue, but everytime I join a group via the group finder, it lags me out and im unable to do anything until the game DCs me, and when i log back on, Im no longer in the group. Happened multiple times, always the exact same way.

Same issue with Island Expeditions, right now, on my level 116 Horde Demon Hunter (Freyyja - Aman’thul). I try to enter, it hangs on the load screen for a few mins, then puts me back in Port of Zandalar with a “Transfer Aborted: instance not found” error. I’ve tried several times. Even killed the client and logged back in and tried again. It appears the other two members of my group are successfully in the instance.

This appears to be an issue on your end. I’ve done everything short of re-installing the game (disabling addons etc) and it hasn’t helped.

Disabling add-ons isn’t the same as removing them. You need to do a full reset.

yeah i did, deleted them entirely (after making back-up copies) and the wtf folder.

Has anyone afflicted with this gotten in?

Does time seem to be a factor - and is there any commonality between different dungeons/different characters?

I am no longer having this issue. I posted on my warlock earlier Awaitsdemons, but I am getting in an out of instances non issues now. Loading faster than normal also.

Just finished a Freehold, Hearthed to Boralus, now back in Freehold group and issue is happening. then I get the message after a huge delay and no progress on loading bar - Transfer aborted, Instance not found. Happened to 3 of us in a group from Frostmourne earlier when trying to enter Motherload. It has no pattern and very sporadic.

Same happened just now for my monk, stormstout. have the bar display, not loading at all. close the app relogin say there existing name in the server, got kick out. then relogin back to outside, tried again, same happened. Last night was fine, also earlier Temp of jade serpent was fine too.

I am unable to enter seething shore BG i keep getting stuck during loading. Seems to only happen on Seething Shore for me. I managed to get into it once but now It just either loads a black screen or stuck on loading…

I’ve been having this problem since I tried joining friends for a weekend raid.

When I try to zone in, being summoned or walking through the entrance, I get the load screen but the bar never starts filling, eventually the screen goes and I’m back where I started with “Transfer Aborted: instance not found”

So I tried numerous things.
Zoned into my Garrison - worked.
Zoned into the Class Hall - worked.
Zoned into Shadowmoon Burial Grounds - worked.
Restarted my modem/router.
Restarted my computer.
Changed VPN location.
Turned VPN off.
Threw hands in air!
Tried yelling at it - failed (I’ve got laryngitis)

In the mean time the raid team has been beating bosses, which I’m fine with as I’ve already killed the bosses this reset. I just go along for fun and more practice at Terror Turkey as I’m trying to get better at it.

Next I asked a friend if I could steal him to test zoning into the raid.
Initially it looked like it failed but the bar was just a bit slow starting and I loaded into Battle of Dazar’alor.

The weekend group are in America and I’m in Australia.
What seems to be the stumbling point is the transfer to the US data centre.

Edit.
After the raid finished a few of them did some mythic dungeons for the weekly. I tried to join them but it still didn’t work.
Even stranger was when we made me the group leader and had me zone in first. I zoned in alone and then invited them to my party, they tried to join me and, after an initial pause on the loading bar, they zoned into a different instance!

That has me completely baffled, that shouldn’t be possible but it happened.
