Red Dragon Island - one way trip to death ? (litterally)

[Kilnasaggart]

Description
==========

Taking the boat at Crows Nest after paying the 15k teleports Charname right in the middle of a cavern, in the middle of a spawn of fire giant chieftains, shamans and some para-elemental of magma-lava...

Steps to reproduce
----------------------------

Just take the boat for the 1st time ?

Expected result
-----------------------

To land on a beach, a cliff, anywhere not right into the deep depths of some hot volcano with swords-ready badass monsters and repetitive meteor swarms

Actual result
-------------------

Unsure what this section means - unprepared Charname got flattened, burned, eviscerated in 2-3 rounds, before the most respected, divine and merciful Oghma would pop in. Frankly, I hope this is not normal behavior.

Screenshot(s)
--------------------

No, too ugly and gore

Which Server(s)?
------------------------

Surface (I suppose)

Gaming Platform(s)?

GTX 3090 + 5950X - but this has nothing to do with hardware

Best guys, good luck and congrats otherwise for a bloody well done servor ++

It's a high level area best not ventured alone, might want to ask in character around before embarking next.
Spawns sound correct and all working as intended.

Spawns on transitions are horrible and happen all over the server regardless of level range.

Thanks for the insights. The point is not so much high-level when one plays a 30th-lvl wizard, it's that while I would understand a portal lense misfiring, a misfiring "trip-on-a-boat" looks really too far-stretched to me. Go figure, if not a bug, then a pretty poor introduction (and yes the slaads will be there in improved invis and the rest). Disappointing storyline.

um why would you not ward up going to a hostile place before leaving the boat?

[Kilnasaggart]

Just because there is no "leaving the boat". You just "enter the boat", and then get teleported right in the middle of the fray (and of course the wizard was warded with all usuals, just had no summons).

Anyway, enough rants from my side, time to whip the slaads brothers Biggie and Smarty ! Yay ! Thanks guys
