Bug Report ID: #1779676828 - Vaal Temple Elite Legion Hard Lock

Good day,

Location - Tier 3 room 'Elite Legion'

Effects - I cannot leave the temple room at all. Hard lock out of the game - also this Vaal Temple run as the other rooms are behind this room.

Observed Cause - The boss in the center never triggers, player cannot open the doors as the boss is still extant. There appears to be no to little defensive coding to handle this missed trigger exception (I've sat here for minutes typing this up, still stuck in the room).



Other details:
I had just activated the 1st 6 additional crystals before going into this Vaal Temple and the temple wiped a large portion of rooms (including the tile this room was under) as this was the 1st temple done post killing the 1st boss.
- Side note, no idea I had to click 'additional crystals' until this morning, could be automated for players instead of a side UI panel choice to increase crystal cap?

As ever, thanks for a great game.

Hope you all enjoy your holidays when you get to them.
Warm regards,
Jaco

Additionally

"Portals are disabled here"

Umm I will try a relog...
OK a first ever in POE for me.

Fully hard locked into this room with I dare say the tiddy scorpion boss via portals disabled, and the logout protection/macro denier.

./hideout also fails with "You can't go to this area from here.

Asked on global, party TP also fails.

There is no checkpoint, I can't see a /help command that would help.

YO! I found the character screen 'Log in to Town OR Hideout' which broke the hard lock. I am glad that's there, even if slightly hidden.

Suggestion - Add to the in-game '/Stuck' which flags players to that Char Screen 'Log in to Town OR Hideout' location reset button.

At least I can play again.

Gl with the defects and defensive coding ;)
