Tomb of the Primeval Kings glitch
dwc89
When doing Tombs runs people are spawing right into aggro, in the 4th room. Definitely not the usual spawn point. Started after update so I'm guessing it is a glitch from that.

You spawn in the circle RIGHT in front of the Darknesses and all the other things. Most of the team can't even load before you are wiped.
PLEASE FIX ...

I usually play healer in ToPK, so i notice this the hard way... They all flame me for NOT healing.
As soon as i start loading "Room 4" i also start pressing my "heal party", that usually takes care of the initial confusion, damage and unsightly deaths
Another way of dealing with this, until it gets fixed (if it does, low priority and all) is to copy the FoW starting maneuver for most teams.. press your "back", and hold it down.. you'll start moving backwards before you can actually see the screen, which sometimes makes the team avoid the initial aggro. I often have to do this, as i'm on a slow connection, on a slow machine..
Anyways.. an annoying "feature", that takes some getting used to, but, in my opinion, manageable.

As it is I don't think it's doable. Forget a pug group and even with a group thats used to eachother its gonna be insta-death most of the time.
Hope this is a glitch and is fixed otherwise tombs runs are over.

Spawn point is to the left of usual spot, up the stairs. Was down 1/3 hp by the time I loaded. Not to fun, but different.
I suppose if everyone knew what was coming you could make it, but everyone would have to know what was coming and adjust. If not it ends soon after spawning in.

It appears to be random spawn points. We spawned at the final spot ... the darkness was on top of me. I had human feet and a darkness torso. There was nothing to do, but die.

Tis true, the last room of the Tombs is glitching. Hopefully it's not permanent.

I don't think it's permanent. This is just annoying because people are too confused when they land there instead of their usual spawning point, and they start running for the so-called safe points... where the pop-ups are hiding. That's what happened first run to me. I was disoriented and went for a spot... and managed to get back to teammates before we were wiped. It was also everyone's first run of the day...
On my second run, we lasted a bit longer. Some of us had seen my message of "not moving from platform not to trigger the pop-ups", but 3 had been loading slightly slower, missed the message and went straight for the popups thinking they were safe. Sure it sucks being without minions and with patrols that can be aggroed even before everyone loads, but I bet it's doable.

Must be incredibly recent, maybe part of the new build they added? I've had bad aggros from the normal spawn point(someone spawns a bit too far forward, catches a monsters eye), but this seems to be the same thing magnified a hundredfold.

As of last night this is still happening. Wiped the team.

Its mentioned in the test weekend section. Everybody's talking about it there.
Anywhere, on-topic, I think this is broken when they tried to do something to the HA's HoH map but unintentionally affected the ToPK's HoH map as well.

I can see it now, the rebirth of ToPK. *sarcasm* "LFG to survive insta wipe at 4th stage, no n00bz0rz" I wouldn't be suprised if it took them a while to remedy this since it is in prophecies aka (the land that has been forgotten)
Jeff Highwind
I bet it's due to the new HoH for this weekend. I haven't done Tombs in a good while though so this is a bad sort of news.

Wow, when i loaded 5 people were dead and the others were loading and dying. We spawned on those evil spiders.
I believe when they changed the spawn for hoh pvp, it affected pve (sounds kinda dumb to forget this)

I'm glad to see that this is a problem for other people too -- you know how misery loves company 
Auto aggro while loading is a real problem. The deaths can be heard occuring before ever being able to see the room on the screen. It's all around ugly.

So this is fixed? A/Me solo is going to be a pain without it.
