During a fight with Demon Wall tonight, I got a loading screen when he used Repel for the second time. My screen went entirely black except for the chat log and the small spinning white circle in the bottom right corner typical of loading screens when changing areas. It lasted roughly three seconds but I wasn't counting. When it ended, I was standing in the back of room in the void pitch or whatever that black stuff on the ground is called. This happened to me once before a few nights ago but my entire party was complaining of severe lag so I wrote it off as a one time freak accident. However, it occurred again tonight while my connection appeared stable.

I got it as PLD both times.

this happened to me once. I tihnk this happens when you are too close to the wall and for a reason or another you and up behind (or almost) the wall.

It was happening to me yesterday, I thought i had died somehow and about flipped :(

As other's have said it seems to happen if your character end's up behind the wall when he moves forward. Happened to me twice as a Monk.
Seems to be a built in measure to stop players getting behind the wall for an easy win.

This happens when you are standing too close to the wall for repel. If it moving would make it cross over your body, effectively placing you behind it, the game moves you, same as if you were being raised.

The wall actually eats you if you are too close when he starts moving and spits you out back at the entrance. Can be seen by the ranged members if they're watching.

Ah, I usually do stand fairly close given that I'm a PLD. I'll try back up some next time and see if it happens again. Thank you for the responses.

Greetings LyhraMizrahi,

I am sorry to hear you are having trouble with black screen on demon wall. This matter has already been brought to our attention and is currently under investigation by development. I recommend checking Here or Here for any updates in the future!
