If you could immediately log back in and pick up where you left off in the Craft you could at least save yourself from losing all those materials.

I know they may not be able to do this because of Hardware / Software issues/limitations. But would still like to know if any or how many have also had this happen to them, or if people have been able to log back in and finish the crafts without losing mats.

I had one time of such DC at the beginning of Patch 2.2. Someone paid me commission and gave me the mats for making the Cashmere Robe of Healing HQ. I made it to IQ9, and was about to use Byregot. Then the DC happened, and all was lost.At that time, my bank was only 850K, and the mats were worth more than 1.1 million. My hands turned cold, and I felt my face out of blood. There was no remedy except started grinding Brayflox HM all day to recover the lost mats... And also asked friends to do me a favor on gathering... Since then, I avoided that time of the day for any kind of important crafting.
