"An unexpected disconnection occurred." - constant DCs when playing bear titan 0.4

THIS ONLY STARTED HAPPENING ~72 HOURS AGO - previously I have NEVER been disconnected like this.


This only has been happening for a few days, since the last couple of patches and also when I reset my skill tree from Smith of Kitava to Titan and swapped to the new Bear Form with a druid talisman weapon.

Getting consistent disconnects back to login screen when playing as bear titan with the most recent patch. This happens every 1-3 maps I try to play.

When I get disconnected, the map is "Failed" all my tablets have 1 less use on them, and I lose all items that I obtained during that map. I've lossed 4-5 div so far from these disconnects.

The game micro-stutters and then I go right back to the log in screen. Happens sometimes when I am casting Ferocious Roar.

I am using the unique talisman "Amor Mandragora" with ferocious roar to gain it's buff.

Running heavy abyss maps with either breach/delirium.

Things I've tried to fix the issue and haven't worked:

- reinstall game
- delete shader cache
- reset router/modem and IP address
- update graphics driver

Here is an example of the disconnect (see bottom left in the last frame for the exact error message):

I've also tried messing around with all the in-game graphics and game options, vulkan, dx12, dlss, scaling, etc...

This is known as an instance crash.

You need to wait for them to implement a server-side fix.
