A system error occured during event movement

[CherryCola]

I'm currently full exited (ctrl+alt+delete, and end program) And see if that kicks me out of the quest.
Edit: Confirmed, unfreezes you. Just don't do the quest till bug is fixed.

Tell us how that works for you. My client has been "loading" my instance for 15 minutes now, after the first time I received the above mentioned error.

EDIT: I will certainly try that, thank you.

alt-F4ing out of the game gave me back control too

SE mentioned they're aware of/working on the issue around 9:30ish EST.

Confirmed Alt+F4 relog works.

Alt f4 Relog did not work for me.....memories of error 9000 are rushing back.

Several people including myself just had the same thing happen over at "Proof of Might"

Confirmed the exact same problem with "Proof of Might" on Sargatanas server. Everyone trying to get in ended up stuck. I also experienced a delay doing the Lancer 15 quest: A Dangerous Proposition and several other instances. It's a real shame that I can't even finish off such a critical part of the Lancer story.

I'm having the same issue with the quest "Lord of the Inferno", I'm stuck at unable to connect to the Duty Finder.

Oh man, I hope they fix this quickly... I'm so close to getting my chocobo! >.<

[Peanut131]

yep everyone is stuck on it

[MelodyMarina]

This is currently being investigated. Official thread here: http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...-%28Aug.-24%29

I guess I'll use this time to go eat and shower or something. :P
