    well as i know its maleström vet arena u have a few min i belive u have prox 7 min(away from shrine ingame) but i might be wrong to leave and come back do correct me if im wrong. if u stay away longer then that u have to redo.not sure tho if its entire that level or entire all level.

    either way if u dont have the score my best guess is u stayed away to far..

    If you DC, either accidentally or on purpose to cut the lag, you can log back in fairly quickly (maybe 5 minutes, maybe 7 as stated above) and still get a score. If you are logged out long enough that your character loads in the open world, rather than in the arena instance area, you will not get a score. Similarly, if you port out of the vMA instance area and come back later, you will not get a score.

    All instances in this game reset 5 minutes after the last player leaves the instance. This applies to dungeons, trials, arenas, sacraments, heists, anything.

    If you leave vMA for any reason--crash, disconnect, log out, zone out--you must return within 5 minutes. If not, the instance will reset and you will be disqualified from getting a score.

    Dying a lot and taking a long time will reduce your score. But there is a limit to the penalty and you will still receive a non-zero score, as long as the instance was not broken by being vacated for 5 minutes.

    This is the correct answer, but I just want to add....

    Not getting a score only counts for leaderboards. You still get the same rewards, achievements, etc even if it's not a scored run.

    Tbh, if you died as much as you say and look a long time to complete than your score wouldn't matter anyway.

    Many people take days or even months to complete their first run. You can leave at any time and pick back up at the beginning of each level as long as you dont delete the quest.

    Depending on what class they play, the weekly leaderboard for their class might be one of the boards that doesn't fill up, and thus any completion with a score would qualify them for a weekly reward.
