I was doing a full game TZ clear, then I accidentally tele'd into this dead zone:



Managed to leave and enter game, lost the souls ritual buff.

Let this be a warning, don't tele into A5 town. You might get stuck here.

It sucks for sure, never thought about the soul ritual, thanks for the reminder.
But when you become an NPC, hey, you stay in town.

that’s fucking hilarious could you do this in classic/LOD or is this a resurrected bug

For whatever reason I got the same kind of dead zone while taking a TP from A3 area to Kurast, and had to quit game.
Luckily I wasnt under Ritual.
I think it really is unconvenient almost only when under Ritual.

Lmao, that sucks. There is a way to get stuck in act 2 and act 3 as well.

I have no idea why they didn't move Cain back over to the stash like he is on battle net on LOD. Single player LOD and d2r act 5 Cain is in such an inconvenient spot.

It's been there since LOD was released =]


I've been looking for other spots like that, are those as easy to get stuck into?

Act 2, no. Act 3 yes it's happened to me more than once actually.

Can you go there easily? or does it require a specific spider forest map seed?

That info I can't remember off the top of my head, but you can get stuck around this area, if it's not in that exact spot it's definitely a spot that has that little wooden structure with the wooden spikes.

I got stuck between town portal and south east wall in A3 this never happened to me before or not that I recall anyone got that ?
