buffer underflow

Same here, more details:
Invoker
Jungle Ruins
Cruel Difficulty
Happened after seeing an essence 'shrine' with two essences available to drop
Also happens when trying to reload the instance (over and over)
Wow, this is horrible!!!

I can't get back into my game.

Jungle ruins.

Level 47, travelled back from Cruel 1 to beat the ape to get the skill points.

Cannot log into my character!
Same here. The error dialog opened for the first time after fighting a monkey rare. I defeated that rare and got the error. Now I cannot log in with that character anymore, the error message "buffer underflow" is shown during the loading screen of that area/zone.

Area/Zone: Jungle Ruins
Char: Fire/Frost Sorceress
Normal Difficulty

Update after 1 day:
Log in with this character is possible again, the zone has been successfully loaded.

Same error here level 30 went to fight big white ape and instead got the ape shit beat out of my game and now cannot get into my character....
Same thing. Act 3 Jungle ruins on first character. Tried logging in on a different PC to the character even w/ no luck. Changed to Vulkan, lowered all settings, cleared the Nvidia cache, tried logging in to different servers (Texas, Cali, Amsterdam) etc. No luck.
Haven't seen any posts from admins about this either....guessing no fix yet or actual knowledge. Seems like some got lucky and it cleared eventually.
Just happened to me now in jungle ruins as well now I cannot access my character. Tried deleting nvidia and Direct x cache but still no luck. Can you please fix this GGG it's extremely frustrating!

Witch Infernalist with summon freezing skeleies and infernal hound happened in jungle ruins Auckland server.

Tried verifying game files no luck with that either. Now doing a complete fresh reinstall of the game.

A fresh reinstall seemed to fix the issue for now but the game did freeze my entire PC as I was logging in and I had to hold the power button to restart it which seems to happen at least once a day at this point.

got the same issue
same issue i got on Steppe map. changed form Directx12 to Vulkan still the same.
Same with me for Decay map, tier 9
Same happens to me on a steppe map
bug report reference number before crash : 988 208 296

From my experience it happened located around a point or a monster, after cleaning around the problematic spot with my remaining portals, the last rare was in the spot, i'd say it's either the rare or a tile of the map.
