VON6 in a first for me

[GoldyGopher]

So playing an underequipped Alt in a R1 heroic VON6. On Air (second base for you old timers) when the Elementals popped back up as I am casting DDOOR for the valiant souls taking down the pillars when poof me an my 219 Hit Points is one dead Tiefling Sorc. My party left my soul stone on the base while they defeated Velah. One brave soul ran all they way out there to grab my soul stone, popped a DDOOR and hopped through it. 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 I snapped to my stone, except it wasn't on solid ground I was drifting down towards the ground, still deal, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3 when ... pop I am now traveling at terminal velocity (120 MPH) down towards the marketplace, alive without feather fall on.

Get the first Tell "Why did you release?"

I dropped party and teleported, only to fail the teleport placing me back at the top dropping at terminal velocity straight down to the marketplace, countdown, to kasplat, as I waited for the teleport timer to reset. About foot from the ground just before leaving a ACME coyote imprint in the bridge between the bank and the market I was able to cast teleport to what ever is the top one on the list....

Responded "Lagged off the base and now dropping towards the marketplace."

Failed Teleport.... This time the timer didn't reset before I went kasplat. Except I didn't kasplat, I didn't take a single point of damage... How in Khyber did that happen.

No idea if this is related but I had a bug attacking an airship in TBC today. It was the airship that docks by the rest shrine and is accessible for a full out assault.

I ran up to it and jumped as usual and landed very briefly on the deck before I was falling through it to the ground. Ran around and did it again to same effect. Third time I landed by the door to the elemental engine and clicked the door as soon as I landed. Inside was solid and I killed the engine then ran back out where the deck once again was not solid after a split second and I fell through as the airship exploded above me.

That sucks.

The whole "falling will make you leave the raid instance with no way to get back" while it makes sense thematically with that one, still really blows. especially when lag can cause strange shinanigans.

I've been experienced a lot of failed teleports recently as well. Though never resulting is something like that. With me, it's been when trying to finish out of a quest, it fails and I come out of the loading screen still in the quest. I try again, and if it was a quest in a wilderness, instead of going into the wilderness I end up back in the public hub instead (which sucks when you're running several quests in a wilderness, having to run from the normal entrance instead of the last quest adds extra time and frustration).

Not sure how related that is, but the mention of failed teleports reminded me of that.

I've seen a lot of weird things with soulstones breaking lately. Its very strange.
