POE 2 - Unbearable rate of "An unexpected disconnection occurred"

It happens at a 50% rate when entering a portal. When you enter a freshly opened map with this error, the way stone will be consumed, and all portals will be gone. (Counted as LOSE)

High tier maps are already rare and with this bug, I cannot sustain maps anymore. This is unbearable. Fix PLS GGG

Ever since the problem that causes you to be unable to log in to one specific character 2 days ago, this unexpected disconnection has been happening constantly. I'm not sure if both problems are related. I am using a Pathfinder btw.

Same issue on my Deadeye, have only noticed it in the last two days in my personal case.

To reproduce:

Enter map portal -> loading screen -> an unexpected error occurred, booted to char select screen

When I reconnect all portals are down in my hideout.

This seems to happen roughly 50% of the time, but hard to say exactly how often over a large sample size.

Anecdotally, leveling a different character I have had no problems in zone transitions / other loading screens.

I haven't tested mapping on a different guy currently.

yea, it started 2 days ago. I forgot to mention it.

First 12 days of playing, not a single disconnection. Now since yesterday I am frequently disconnecting upon entering and/or exiting maps.

Little bit more testing on this;

Ran some maps for about 90 minutes on a different class (Sorceress) and crashed zero times. Ran about 15 maps.

Booted up Ranger, crashed on 1st and 5th map I ran. On the maps where I did not crash, I would take the other 5 portals when the map was complete to see if I could recreate the crash. Never crashed / disconnected on anything other than the first portal of map.

Obviously still working with pretty small sample sizes but pretty uninterested in putting maps that I don't want to brick into the map device on my ranger until something changes.

also having this problem on pathfinder. seems to be about 50% of the time .waystones are lost and map is counted as attempted and portals are gone. has happened a few times portalling elsewhere in the game as well not just maps

I'm getting this too on Mercenary (Gemling Legionnaire if it matters). Every 3-4 maps I'll get this disconnect during the initial map load and it will delete my map/portals/mark the node as failed.

With the same frequency I'll get the disconnect going from map back to hideout, but in that case the portals + map are usually preserved.

Makes it hard to sustain any kind of high tier maps so hopefully it can be resolved.

I'm also getting 50% rate on unexpected disconnections. Started happening 2 days ago but that was also when I started re-speccing my passive tree. I went all in on evasion and got the Acrobatics node. I wonder if that has any correlation. - Merc gemling

Since the 20th for me I've been getting the unexpected disconnection

Log back in, way stone gone.
Loot from the map I picked up is gone.
XP gain from map is gone.

It's almost like the character was rolled back before the map, Items you loot / take the portal to drop off and go back in remain, it's just loot on the character when the disconnection happens that is lost.
