After the most recent patch groups random split up into various picks. Take a full group and exit the Plane of Disease zone. 2 characters end up in base pick, 2 in pick1, and 2 in pick2 voted most annoying bug of 2022.
This isn't new. I frequently suffer this when I am zoning in and out of LDoNs fairly quickly (~8 mins). Two characters grouped each with a merc. The merc stays in the "group" and one of the players gets dropped. Thoroughly annoying.
Not the same thing. There's already threads open. This is the same thing, the complaints arent restricted to TLPs. https://forums.daybreakgames.com/eq/index.php?threads/pick-zone-changes-on-tlps.280457/
Although the latest patch may have increased the frequency of this happening, it's not new. My groupmates on live have been sent to different picks for years. It seems to mainly happens when leaving an instance to a zone that has multiple picks open, but I could be remembering incorrectly. Also, I think it didn't happen if the group leader completely zoned before the rest of the group started zoning.
from Aug 16 2017 patch notes - - When entering a zone, if you do not have a pick zone timer, you will be placed in the zone where all of your group members are and get a timer.
