I keep getting this. I installed the game via Steam. It first happened a couple hours into playing - read about it a little online, restarted my computer (as suggested) and it fixed it.
Hours later in Sastasha Seagrot I crashed a few pulls into the dungeon, went through probably 15 different potential fixes, nothing worked. After the dungeon was completed and my character was removed from the dungeon, I was able to play.
I was with a group so we re-queued for the dungeon so I could get the MSQ completed. At the exact same spot, I got the same crash. Went through about 5-10 more fixes to no avail - resorted to reinstalling the game through a SE link (not through Steam).
Logged on today, tried to test my luck in the dungeon yet again, no crash happened. Completed the dungeon fine and ran to the next step in the MSQ. Crashed at a seemingly random point. I got sick of the crashing so I left it for hours. Thought maybe in ~5 hours it would magically work - it didn't.
Completely unable to log into my character now and exhausted every solution I could find.
Please help.
