Geometry Error during quest boss fight: Chapter 2: The Sword of Justice - Defeat General Fury

pesmergakuragari

Area: Fiery Fit -Cultist Assault

While fighting General Fury, I got stuck in the air unable to do anything but float there. I can't use /stuck to get out.
It looks like I'm stuck on invisible geometry intended to contain players during the fight.

Used to happen in Ballad of Baphomet, too.

Still happening. Just happened to me twice in a row.

It can happen almost anywhere.
These are the place on top of my head.
1. Ballad of Baphomet
2. After got out of Ballad of Baphomet, stuck within the bar stool. More often than #1 for me, mainly because I know how to avoid #1.
3. Recently, stuck within a barrel outside of South Sea Trading Company tent.
4. Stuck in a raising wall door in one of the dig in River District.

Got caught in a blast once in the Drake Pens. Got my TR's head stuck in the ceiling.

I understand it can happen anywhere, I've played plenty of MMOs and was even a developer for one.

This quest - if you wind up behind where the General spawns, you get stuck...and as a TR...you tend to get behind the mobs you are fighting.

I don't know about Arc, but most games I've played the game company likes to know where those locations are so they can fix them (they are really hard to track down, but relatively simple to fix once found).

After 6 times of getting stuck, I finally just ran at the mobs head-on and pulled them back toward the center so I wouldn't be stuck floating in the air behind the steps.

I personally don't think the fix is per location but in general game geometry calculation code. e.g. Ballad of Baphomet one has been there for years. It is well known and almost every TR (and that could be other class too) would have experienced that.
