Magisterium Bug - apparently a recent one

Was running the Magisterium trial last night and we were trying for the 'Ready to Rumble' badge (defeat the 250 IDF and first 4 AV's in under 8 minutes) so we had a ton of pets out.

Defeat Shadowhunter, defeat Nega Pendragon, CRASH. My game locks up. I wouldn't necessarily think it a big deal, except almost the entire league was on Skype and we took a head count and found that 20 out of 24 players crashed at the exact same time. Just before the crash, several people commented on a massive lag spike (reminiscent of the issue in Emperor Cole's personal story mission).

So, we log back in and finish the trial.

A couple hours later, we get another crash at the EXACT same spot in the trial and it takes out all but 3 players.

Two crashes affecting 80% of the league, in the same night, at the exact same point in the trial? Sounds like a new bug has gotten in there. Or maybe it's a server issue and will go away after the next maintenance. One can always hope. Anyway, a bunch of people bugged it so we'll see what happens.

If you're talking about what I think you're talking about, change "20 out of 24" to "21 out of 24." I wasn't on skype, so you prolly didn't count me.

If that's the case, then in both instances, three people did NOT crash. Wonder where they were team-wise? All on same teams or on different teams? If on different teams, same team position?

By any chance, did you have a bunch of lore pets out at that time?

Read my stories!

Exactly the same thing happened on a Ready to Rumble attempt on Defiant on Thursday night. Defeated the first two AVs, then well over half the trial crashed out simultaneously. I was one of them, so I can't tell exactly you how many people were left behind.
