Waypoint Failure = RIP

So, I was doing Merveil runs today and I died of course. But how I died was weird, to me anyways. I exited Merveil's den and after the billionth run an exile appeared in the same instance of the forest (runs take like 2 minutes, so it never refreshes). I moved and the grace period timer went away, reasonable. Got viper striked and immediately went to port to town using the waypoint. However, it wouldn't port me to town... I spam clicked the town aaaand nothing. So I tried to log, aaaaand nothing. So of course, I died. Anyone have an explanation on why the waypoint failed me? I didn't want to fight the exile, so I wanted to bail. The game, however, wanted me to croak.
I got to do this I'm sorry OP despite most people probably won't get the reference

Double the bailing failure :(
When I get waypoints/portals/doors not working it's usually because I'm desynced and the character is not beside the waypoint on the server, but stuck in some corner with a mob blocking the way (on the server anyhow). I usually find out with /oos.

Maybe the viper striker exile had you stuck somewhere (on the server)? But considering the layout of that area, it's unlikely.

Nope.
It's strange how your level 78 Character can die to Forest Monster Level Exile
I watched some streamer try this, he pulled a large forest of mobs and went to a wp, then spammed on the wp location that he was at, thinking it was the town because it's green.
I have died on a turbo race to the Burning Menace where my tp wouldn't work after clicking on it like crazy, but nothing like this. Maybe some mechanic I'm unaware of.

Reasonable theory, but OP said he tried to log and was unsuccessful there also. This leads me to believe it was lag on his end rather than desync.

You are too good at the game, game must punish you.
