Path of Exile - Uber Dies To Instance Freeze

After rewatching, I died slowly degenning to death to caustic cloud zombies — probably a couple hits after that, but most of the damage was poison clouds. My character was moving to the other side of the pack when I disconnected, so thats where I would have ended up for the 6 seconds. 

I could have actually lived the disconnect I think, but my ruby flask had no charges when it happened and the disconnect happened literally a few frames before i would have filled it back up. Had the disconnect happened about 0.2 sec later theres a good chance I lived, you can even hear me press flask keys timing it with the pack death cause my ruby was empty and about to run out. To clarify, I had about 10 overcap regen with no flasks up, no endurance charges, and no boot enchant proc.

Apparently a lot of people on Washington DC realm lagged out at the exact same time, which is what I was playing on. I’ve never had an issue on there except when Comcast decided “lol routing, have 150 ping” which isn’t something GGG can exactly do anything about. Last time I died to a disconnect was when people were working on things outside and apparently messed with a line and I was well aware I shouldn’t be playing lol.

I didn’t actually plan to push after not being able to play at all day 2 (Nor’easter caused all sorts of power problems, couldn’t play the whole day) and then finding out SR Totems were bugged, but after Ventrua died I went all out, sucks it had to end like this. Fun character, would have been a tough race to win against aila as his character is super fast and has all sorts of advantages but I managed to push my character to a point where I could at least put up a fight while remaining tanky enough. Killed T6 elder extremely easily too on really low end gear.

Time to bring back the old meme

The 6 second disconnect timer is one of the biggest things I disagree with GGG on, as much as I defend them and feel a lot of the hate they get is undeserved. This is my first death to it in almost 2 years, but I’ve wanted it to change for a long time now. Hoping we get something at least eventually.

Some stats –
I captured 17 spirit beasts during this time; I have 10 saqawal, 4 craiceann (I killed 2 already), 2 fenumus, and 1 farrul.
