So, how many times do you have to log out before you log out?

... Or No Refunds quest stabbing me in the eyes with its visual bug.
Gods yes! I got my first taste of that one on one of my last run throughs. My first thought was that my laptop is dying. Not something I'd like to experience on a regular basis.

I keep the mules in Kundarak bank, the small area seems to help with the log off speed. Of course if one logs in and out with multiple toons, the log off time will get longer and longer regardless. I usually do a mid session log out during this and go make coffee or something during the minutes the screen is black...

Quite frankly I'm very surprised none of the usual shills have showed up and told us this is not a bug, it's WAI, it can't be fixed and in the end it's our fault.

Also its friend, the "Bank won't open but then will troll you by spam opening three times in a row no matter what you try to do to prevent it from happening."

I only ever have to log out once. But when I have switched toons a couple of times, it will take a minute oder two.
But hitting the logout button multiple times doesn´t help with that.

That's for shutting the game down, not logging off the character. Mind you, alt+f4 STILL crashes the game down, thankfully in win11 windows shuts the process down for you. In windows 7 I had to constantly open task manager to shut it down.

And then we complain about ladder bugs lol

Maybe not, but it felt better than just waiting. Not anymore though. Just kill the client if need be. Though even that comes with a delay.

It's really weird, it depends on character and can reset upon a TR.

Half of my mules take up to 2min to logout, other instant to 30sec.

My main on some lives takes up to 2min, sometimes instant, sometimes ~30sec.

It doesn't seem to depend on pastlives and TR cache or not turned-in quests as people have previously suspected.

It's not a bug that happens very often, but I've experienced it enough times to be frustrating, because it's really annoying.

When I play alone, I just restart the quest. But sometimes in groups, people don't want to restart. In that case, I go AFK and come back when the group is finished. It's really like a stab in the eyes.

It's not panacea, when process down all game setting still live, so if you have in-game gamma adjusted it still persist and you need reboot computer to restore it anyway. I don't know any other game with such weird behavior.

23! Impressive. Yeah mate that is so frustrating, anymore if it takes more than one attempt, I just full quit. Think it’s faster loading fresh than trying to get the game to perform a very simple task.
The total number of lifetime logouts for all users on all servers is less than 23!

Once. Sometimes takes a little longer but if you wait it does work. Ive always suspected the server is doing something at that time (a backup of some type) but who knows.

I don't personally have enough past lives for this to be the reason for the awful logouts sometimes. The most i have on any character is 31 total with 24 coming from epics and 7 assorted heroic lives. But the characters that always take the longest for me are Iconic characters. Not sure that is what causes it or makes it worse in general, but that seems to be the issue with my characters, and most of them are just first life bank toons.

Only very rarely do I try to log out more than once. The question is really how long will it take for that first logout to take effect? Obviously, this really only happens when you try to log out in the same zone you started in, but it can take a bit sometimes, especially when checking 30 mules in a row.
