Died outside a never-entered boss arena, wiped the map

In the Mire map, where the boss is in an arena. I got close to the waystone and even used it to teleport to another part of the map, but never entered the boss arena. Something killed me and I found myself returned to the boss waypoint, but my minimap was black, and the entire map had reset. Lost two different events, and I had 2 lives left.

If even coming into range of a boss waypoint can trigger the behavior, we should be prompted before that effect activates. I was using that waypoint for convenience, and I think a lot of people do that, so they can clear the map's events and return to the boss.

This also happened to me today. Wiping the map if dying to a boss is a ridiculous mechanic to begin with, but wiping the map just for walking by the checkpoint is even more ridiculous...

This happened to be before when I had pumped up a strongbox but decided to clear the area first... Sure enough, I died, and it wiped the whole map...... so all the currency I put in was lost...

This game has the possibility of being a great game, but GGG keeps going way too far with some of their decisions... The whole "dying to a boss, or dying to a monster/mob after walking by the boss checkpoint, wipes the map" is potentially the most ridiculous decision implemented so far (in my opinion).

It is like GGG wants people to not play their game...
Let's work together to make this world a better place :)
