Game crashes when porting to Rawl'kha in Reaper's March

Quackery · April 25

I've had this issue for quite some time now where the game crashes when I port straight to Rawl'kha in Reaper's March. It doesn't matter if it's from another zone or getting up top from the Outlaw's Refuge; it only happens when I port straight to the town. It doesn't crash if I port to another wayshrine in Reaper's March, just when I port straight the town.

Can you please look into this? It's really frustrating to keep crashing like this and very annoying to have to go through other wayshrines first.

Just happened again when trying to get up top from the outlaw refuge in Rawl'kha.

This is REALLY frustrating, it keeps happening over and over again! I keep forgetting that I can't port to Rawl'kha directly, so imagine the frustration when not being able to port to the town or even get up from the outlaw's refuge!

I think they might be mucking about with graphics optimization.

Others are reporting the client being more crashy of late and I was experiencing crashes for a while, until I turned down my graphics settings.

Rawl'kha is a hotspot. Lots of players means lots of data and lots of things going on graphically. Porting directly into it your machine has to get and serve you all of that at once. Porting to anywhere else in the zone, the game client is probably receiving it in a more manageable / less crashtastic manner as you approach the city.
