If a game loses connection to server during Arena fight the player is awarded a loss. This is unacceptable. I lost 60 Team arena points and 15 Gladiator arena points last few days due to this bug. I suppose that was intended as some sort of anti-cheat, but since arena fights have zero human input the result of the fight can be determined by the game immediately after player clicks on start - and it should also be immediately saved to server, so even if player loses connection (does not matter if in valid way or as an cheat attempt) the result is safe. Please fix it, as this is especially devastating in Team arena as it a loss of 30 points which is huge.

Thank you for your understanding and patience. We appreciate your support.
Thanks @spare jetty. It is a fact that I had way more disconnects recently compared to first two seasons even though my internet is perfectly fine. But the occasional disconnection is not a problem in itself, it's only losing game resources as a consequence is a problem. So thanks again for taking this seriously.

Ok I'll grab a log file if it happens again.
There you go. Log is from 17.00 and disconnect happened somewhere between 17.00 and 17.06.
thank you for providing us with the game logs. pleas let me check with our team and get back to you as soon as possible.
Thank you!
Here's another one, this time disconnect is at the end of file. And the game did not managed to re-connect yet (and it's been at least 5 mins since it happened).
Had to force close and restart game because it was not going to re-connect at all while slowing my PC down because it was using 100% GPU resources. It happened at least twice so far.

Dear Traveler, please rest assured, our team is investigating the issue and we will update you promptly. Your patience is highly appreciated.
Thanks!
@obtuse river Dear Traveler, thank you for your patience,
It would be highly appreciated if you confirm with us whether a reconnection screen appears, then you are unable to enter the game.
Looking forward to your response!
Thank you for your patience and understanding!
In the case I mentioned earlier when I had to restart game there was no reconnection screen; instead game went directly on its own into "Loading plane" screen (except there was no text, just swirling white fog). Then it locks there and starts using more and more GPU resources until it hits 100% usage and at this point it slows whole PC so badly that I have to alt-F4 it.
Thank you for your clarification, please confirm with us once the issue occurred the screen was as shown in the screenshot below! If not, please provide us with a screenshot.
Thank you for your time and understanding!
@obtuse river
No, the one you show is loading game screen, then is a login screen, and then next is where it stopped.
Actually I realized there is a way to reproduce that problem. If I leave the game running and put PC to sleep, after waking it up I run into this problem quite often recently. It wasn't so before, the game would go to login screen previously after PC sleep so I guess one of the patches introduced this bug.
Thank you for letting us, please rest assured, our team is investigating the issue and we will get back to you as soon as possible.
@obtuse river Hello Traveler, Thank you for your patience, we are pleased to inform you that our team will have this issue resolved by tomorrow, if you continue to experience issues after the fix, please don't hesitate to let us know!
It happened again. Another 30 team arena points lost while I was easily winning. Instead of gaining 10 points I lost 30. It's damn super hard to get high ranking this way. I'm losing wyrm because of this bug.
Dear Traveler,

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation. If you have any additional questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out to us.

@spare jetty I was hoping for a compensation maybe. Already lost 90 team arena points this week, that would be enough to put me one tier higher in weekly ranking.
2 months later the bug is still there. Just few minutes ago won an arena battle, lost connection at the end and the fight is registered as my loss. Weren't it supposed to be fixed?
