HELP with "respawn in dungeon" mechanic

General
1

After a several-month break, I decided to play a few dungeons while waiting for 1.3. When fighting the Level 4 boss of the Soul Bastion, I died and a prompt asked me if I wanted to spend a key to respawn. Choosing the option sent me to town, instead and an extra key was consumed. I tried this a few more time to make sure and the same happens.

Does this work as intended?

I think spending a key is supposed to spawn you at the boss entrance and respawn takes you to town. I think taking you to town is ridiculous it should take you to the nearest portal - dungeon entrance.

Not entirely sure how it’s supposed to work as the dungeon instance in general can be really buggy with the door magically telling you the dungeon is in use etc for no reason.

If im not mistaken there are 2 buttons - respawn (to town) and spend a key and respawn at the boss. Maybe you clicking the first one? I don’t know but if I click spend a key I am respawned at the boss, no problem. But I haven’t done Lvl 4 dungeons this season , lvl 3 only. Maybe the bug is for lvl 4 dungeons?

For me it worked OK in t4 TS and in Arbor too.
But Bastion… it is so unpopular, never tested key respawn button there in S2 .
And Bastion was a source of dupes before some fixes, so it could be actually bugged after fixing… game’s strange behavior

I chose the bottom option at least 3 times (the one telling me to spend a key and showing me how many keys I have left). A loading screen would appear, showing the dungeon name and ten that text wold change to “Outcasts Encampment” and It would load me to town.

I can confirm that this is happening. I just spent a key (after misstiming the clock explosion), spent a key and it sent me to the end of time.

And I got a notification that just said “Quest completed” but that had no other info (the box where it should say +xps or whatever was empty).

You should edit the OP into the Bug Reports category.

EDIT: Maybe it has something to do with using the portal charm to skip the dungeon?

EDIT 2: I just spent a key to die on purpose to test it. It starts with a loading screen for the sanctum which then changes to a loading screen for the end of time. Possibly because of using the charm like I pointed out above.

I had the issue with AND without the portal charm. As a practice, I like to go through the dungeon normally and use charm only if I die.
