The improvements to 'failed teleports' recoveries has been noticeable since the recent work; where it puts you back to whatever location you were in before zoning failed. This was interesting recovery message (that required quitting the app and relaunching) that I'd never seen before. It was result of recalling (while solo) from Wrath of the Earth into the Barovian wilderness. I assume the fail mechanic tried to drop me back into the quest that had just been completed but couldn't.

If we HAVE TO restart the client to get out, why for the love of baal don't they just catch all the failed teleports and move us to the marketplace? Sure, it doesn't make any sense, sure it's confusing, but isn't it still BETTER then a black screen and people quitting?

But was this something that failed to load for a bit and then did. Or something where you had to close DDO and restart it? Because if it's the 2nd, it doesn't matter what message they give lol.

Lately since their fixes, if you fail to zone because of failed teleport it puts you right back where had been (ie- if I'm my ship trying to get to House J and it fails then it puts me back on my ship) which is pretty nice. This time it seems like it tried to put me back into the quest I had been in and it couldn't because the quest's instance no longer existed so it hung and I had to relaunch.
