Hallowed Ground Freezes Game

Surprised there isn't more posts about this...

I'm finding that when doing anything involving instance servers (pvp, all t2 dungeons, and all skirmishes) randomly will freeze the screen. This used to happen before but would release you within seconds. Now its indefinite. You have to force quit to resolve and it just does it again within moments. This also affects all players in instance. Rumors state its linked to use of hallowed ground spell being cast by clerics. Linked below is a couple videos of game freeze in action.

As you can see, each time at the freeze, hallowed ground is being cast (yellow pillar of light). High indicator of the problem.

Steps to reproduce the bug:
1. Queue for instance
2. Start combating enemies.
3. Cast hallowed ground.
4. Game will freeze for you and everyone else in there with you.
Note: In PVP when a cleric casts hallowed ground only their party (team) freezes. Other team is unaffected.
Resolution: Go to Xbox dashboard and hit the old start button and navigate to "quit". Log in and you will be dead dead.

This is a huge problem and needs to be acknowledged by staff immediately!

    I go into dungeons or battlegrounds and my game freezes up since the patch...pretty much i cant do anything which makes this game worthless to me...

    This is so incredibly frustrating. It also happens with Control Wizards and a few of their abilities. I can't get through certain dungeons at all because it crashes several times. I was doing Epic Spellplague Caverns and there was a cleric and for some reason it wasn't crashing like the other times. Just really laggy. But then I did Epic Frozen Heart and the cleric's Hallowed Ground or Divine Armor crashed my game several times until the cleric left the group. Just when I thought we were fine. One of the Control Wizard's abilities froze the game.

    I am a Healer... So far I have Locked down 12 different dungeon runs. All with Hallowed Ground. I cannot run any instance at all. So all lvl 60+ for me is off limits until this is addressed. Please make an announcement of some kind so healers know when we can go back to gear hunting.
