Map wiped clean after dying because I WALKED BY a Boss checkpoint.....

This is maybe one of the most ridiculous things/bugs I've come across in POE 2 so far. It really caught me by surprise, as I haven't played in 2ish weeks, and it makes me not want to continue playing...

Because it had been a while, I decided to do a lower tier map with 3 revives. I came across a checkpoint, noticed it seemed different (it said Arena), and decided to come back to it after clearing the map. Well, as I was killing monsters, I ended up getting killed by an on-death affect that I couldn't even see on my screen due to my build type, Whirling Slash + Twister. I didn't think much of it, and thought I would just respawn and could go pick up the items that dropped + kill the rest of the rare monsters.... I thought wrong...

I was so confused when I saw the map was completely greyed out and began to notice that there were no enemies nor items on the ground. I decided to ask on Global Chat what was going on, and noticed that there was NOBODY talking in it in the past 40 minutes except 1 bot who spammed services for sale a few times. Global Channel 7 is usually quite busy, and I have never seen it dead before. So I went to Global Channel 1, where there were actually people, and someone told me that even walking past a boss checkpoint is enough to trigger this effect... Absolutely ludicrous...

This is perhaps one of the most ridiculous things I have heard of in a game. I am hoping that it is a bug and was not intended to be this way, but if it is intended to be this way, then it goes into the pile of ridiculous things that make me not want to play POE2 anymore... The game is already super punishing, but this is just overkill.

TL;DR I get killed by on-death effects that are not visible due to the amount of other effects on the screen (mainly Twisters and Whirling Slash), and instead of reviving to continue killing monsters and collecting my loot, the whole map is wiped clean (aside from the boss) because I walked past an event that I decided not to do. This is ridiculous. The fact that dying to a boss triggers the map to be wiped clean in the first place is already ridiculous enough. Now it also happens just for walking by the checkpoint?? This is not fun.

Is this going to be looked into?
