Alt +F4 is legit but when you actually disconnect your char remains logged in. Cause fuck logic.

I have been wondering if the increase in lag and disconnects lately is from the what must be thousands of instances of city of sarn created by people looking for Sacrifice At Midnight. At 30 seconds a run I can have over 25 of them up if I get no spawn.

POE is Dead... long live POE!

My number one rule for HC leagues is to reroll the same day (within reason) and to get to Cruel.
Atleast if I burn the first 25 levels or whatever, then I actually have some kind of fun(ish) character to log on to the next day.
For me, there is nothing worse than dieing and then having to restart the next day or whatever at level 1. Somehow it eases my pain lol
Just for try for see and for know -2013!

Hey guys,
well, actually my toon is dead, maybe not Poe.
the thread title is just a joke by the way, I might not have the best humor though.
This is more about dying to lag/disconnection than anything else. I do know it is nobody's fault if you die from lag, disconnection or even desync.
Basically I lost my main character in Invasion league due to lag/disconnexion. Had around 80% of my hp while running in lunaris 3, checked ping (f11) flat curve at 500ms, instant alt f4 as usual in this kind of case. Rebooted internet, relaunched poe => welcome to the standard league.
5.9k hp to run lunaris is not enough to survive a disconnection apparently... As far as I know there was not even a rare or magic mobs around, just few white mobs. That's a lame death, I don't know what else I could say. No small rectangular window noticing you are DEAD, but still you are.
I don't understand why there isn't any mechanics to prevent death from such event. I don't think it would be that complicated to implement. What I believe is GGG don't really care about this. Basically without a good/stable internet connection all hardcore leagues are not playable in the long run. Many would say go play softcore and stop QQing. That's pretty sad since I find no point in playing an ARPG without the risk to lose my character.
Now I have no motivation to play the game anymore, not willing to start over after having lost around half of all I have in this league. HC league ? Well, it's not fun to play it since very few are still playing, and to be honest it's boring to play the game when you already have all the gear you want to have. I have saved over hundred exalted, plus tons of other currency and finally realized it is a pointless. That's the main reason why I like reset, and new leagues in general.
Do you have some experience like mine you would like share, and how did you deal with it ?
This is not a QQ post, I just wanted to share my experience. For now I think I will take a pause from poe, most likely not going back to invasion. Perhaps I'll play again poe in the future 4months leagues.
welcome to the club.
this is related but a little off the main topic, but: ive mentioned it before but i think more than 20-30 secs of invulnerability (before moving or taking any actions) when switching zones would also be nice. sometimes it takes that long to find out if its just loading slowly or if my game has crashed. ive ripped this way also. dont get why there isnt an infinite safety while switching zones...i mean if youre not moving or taking any action, whats the problem?

problem is 100% safe boss kills
but that's minor and easily fixable
i have to agree, dying in loading screen can be totally eradicated

idk, you can already get 100% safe boss kills, just waiting on the floor below for instance.
but yeah..

Playing in standard league I'm told just don't die. LOL I guess the same could apply here. I can understand a death where you spent a lot money on a character like you have. Hundred exalts in Evasion league already? lol Wow, what's the point when you buy items? Sorry no empathy here.

I'm trying to think of one off the top of my head and all I can come up with are W3 and SC2 pausing the game to wait for players to reconnect.
Yes in DaoC utilizing lag to deliver position based attacks or lag/jumps is considered skill. And i´m quite on the site of people arguing that it´s skill. hu3hu3hu3h
What can never be lent or earned?
Somewhat, that devours everyone and everything:
A tree that rush. A bird that sings. It eat bones and smite the hardest stones.
Masticate every sword. Shatters every shrine. It defeat mighty kings and carry mountains on lightly wings.
What am i?
