It is a test server. However, it might not be the server and could just be your client dropping :P

I'm guessing the latest round of fixes introduced an error that causes a server crash whenever a player does something specific, like attempt a quest.

Just logged in and nothing fixed or new. Crashes/dcc still happening very regular. Since I can't get anything done because of the constant resets, gonna wait a few days before trying to do anything. :(

This may be completely guessing, but the server seems to DC most frequently when i'm just doing my professions. It's a pain in the ass. like fishing, mining, crafting, cooking, jewelcrafting, enchanting. Last night it was particularly horrible. It may not be related at all.

Seems completely random to me and it also rolls back my character, and not just a bit either, like 15 mins, and it has happened like 5 times the last 2 hours, it's getting really fucking annoying, i'm fucking swimming upstream just trying to level

If it seems random to you, then you're probably not causing the crash, assuming my suspicions are correct. If you're doing the exact same thing every time a crash occurs, your action might be the cause, and it should be reported.

Leveling is difficult, at least as Horde, because there are several crucial quests that are just broken. You can't even do the quest that opens up the Maghar faction, which means you basically have no access to Garadar.

I am certainly not causing it, i have dc'ed: while walking, flying, literally standing around while tabbed and lastly mid combat

EDIT: Ok this is getting out of hand i'm literally making no progress when the dcs are this frequent, i'm dcing twice per 5 mins sometimes

EDIT 2: I'm hearing from people that fear mechanics are causing it, and that people are using it explicitly to exploit it, only a rumour though, haven't tested it
