Return Bug.

Strange event after KO while running around solo in The Black Shroud: I was killed by a group of Ixali, selected Return from the menu and instead of returning, raised and continued along as if the Raise spell had been cast on me. This happened twice in a row, and it almost happened a third time, but after a few seconds I did return to my Home Point. Anyone else experience this?

I had only experienced death => return bug (?) where the screen loads me as raising back to life at the spot, then the enemies aggro and attacked me. I lost some HP. Then it loaded me at Home Point, damaged from the attack after return. I would be mad if I died there again only because the loading was buggy!

Some people in my linkshell and I have experienced this as well, mostly in The Black Shroud.
We have a theory: It only seems to happen in locations where the servers change hands.
That is to say, the small area where you "zone" into another server is buggy.

I tested this once and had a 90% "raise" rate in the hand-off zone.
The last time I ended up returned dead in Ul'dah, lol.

I've had that since launch. Sometimes its faster to send you back to the home point than others.

This is known. You revive and there's lag. If you change servers(ie do that zone thing where other people disappear for a second) before you are returned, you get to keep going. I haven't experienced this since beta though.

Greetings Xoo!

Thank you for bringing this to our attention. Fortunately, we have already received reports on this matter, so your concern about the return function is already under review. Unfortunately, I cannot guarantee that a direct response will be posted on this thread, but I do recommend consulting http://lodestone.finalfantasyxiv.com/ or http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/f...40-Patch-Notes for any details about the development team's investigation. Thanks again for your report!
