[PoE 2] Game crashes when trying to login with a specific character

How has this been happening with no resolution SINCE DECEMBER. My character is experiencing this bug. Have tried ALL suggestions and still isn't resolved. If the campaign wasn't so long and arduous, I'd just relevel a new character as it's only level 20 or so. FIX UR GAME GGG
My character is stuck too, nothing helps. Do I have to start all over again?
upd/ I was able to log in, Changed it to Vulkan from 12, threw it out, ran a database integrity check, passed the check, changed it back to 12 and logged in.

Yo dudes,
So I come home tired as hell after my shift at the factory, right? Just wanted to chill and farm some maps for fun.

Logged into my level 6 Amazon, joined some randos in an open group, and ended up in the Flower Meadow. Now I can’t even access the character.

The log says:
2025/04/17 20:26:04 3898406 833064f7 [CRIT Client 18476] File Not Found: Metadata/Effects/Spells/monsters_effects/leaguestone_mod/buff/red/red_buff.epk. Using fallback EPK file

Tried every fix I could find—nothing works. This some next-level BS.
After some troubleshooting, I realized the issue was that my character was stuck in a bugged part of the map.

The solution is to move your character out of that spot, and the best way to do that is by starting a local co-op session with another character. This pulls your stuck character out of the loop and places them safely in town. Once your character is free from the bugged area, you can log out and then log back in with just your character.

Just remember to avoid that location until the server restarts.
