Kicked to login screen when trying to do instanced group content

Hey!
Since the last patch (Harrowstorm, 5.3.4) I've been getting kicked back to the login screen every time I try to do instanced group content, such as dungeons and trials. My connection is perfeclty fine, and I'm not experiencing any kind of lag or fps drop before I get kicked, my character just disappears from the screen, everyone stops, and after a few seconds I'm out. The time I get disconnected at seems pretty random, sometimes I get disconnected less than two minutes into a dungeon, and sometimes I only get disconnected after ten. I don't get any error message after I get back to the login screen, and I can just press the login button to get back. I don't get disconnected when I'm doing other activites that are hard on my graphics card, like overcrowded world bosses in Murkmire right now, this only happens in dungeons and trials.
We first speculated that this is connected to the out-of-date addon crashes, but I also tried doing trials with all of my addons turned off, and I still crashed.
So far I've:
- Deleted all my addons
- Reinstalled the newest version of the most important ones and their libraries (some hasn't been updated for the latest patch yet though).


Every idea and suggestion will be appreciated. I can give a list of all the addons I am using right now if necessary.

    Which addons are you using?
    I am having the exact same issue you just described. It only happens in instanced group content. At first I suspected some weird interaction between addons but even after removing ALL but one addon I still got kicked - the catch is I know others I play with who use that addon without getting kicked so it cannot be that. I'm at my wits end here to be frank, I refuse to play the game without addons.

    You're not alone. A friend last night was doing vBRP and got kicked to login at least 15 times during the instance. No crashing otherwise.

    I use most of those [Asylum Panel, Status Tracker , CMX, Hodor, Purgetracker] but I have a lot more others too than you so idk. I was testing with only Bandit UI enabled and I still got kicked. Did you manage to find any solutions?

    I turned BuffTimers off and it worked for a while, managed to do a raid and 4keys, but now I'm getting disconnected again :(

    Same. I did 4 dungeons without DCing with all my regular addons turned on. Now I got yeeted twice to login in vAS, once with addons turned on, then second time with all addons/savedvariables removed from their respective folders.... So I'm gonna go out on a limb there and say this is NOT an addon issue, it's a zos issue. Feelsbadman

    Well, that explains it, thanks. I block-cancel pretty much every move. Did a quick testing spamming block in my house and I did get kicked. Smh
