I noticed it happens when there's a secondary light source like a torch or fireplace. The ambient lighting remains consistent but the secondary lighting comes and goes. It does not appear to be limited to any area in the game, and I have replicated it in several different places across the map. EDIT: I've also noticed that you can replicate the same bug on the same angle after moving the camera and returning it. I have not yet tried to determine if that is consistent across log ins. While I have no doubt they know about the bug, I don't know what value an in game bug report holds, so I am sending them about once a day (I suspect that more often than that from a single player would be unhelpful). My hope is that those bug reports include useful information for the devs and not just a screenshot. Also, the squeaky wheel gets the grease, and this lighting glitch has started to seriously impact my enjoyment of the game.

I would like to post an update about my account and the disconnects. I last posted a little under a month ago.I was recently in a dungeon on a DIFFERENT computer from my home computer, on different internet, and on a different router (all of which have been suspect for this), and I still encountered the issue. This is not related to LW4. This has happened to me consistently from the personal story up through Path of Fire (which I have slowly meandered through) AND now group dungeons and fractals. As for it not being 'replicable' I might suggest that Anet ought to send someone WITH a player in a story instance and merely wait for it to happen. Or several of these players. I, with some level of reliability, get disconnected if I spent over half an hour in an instance. @Jeffrey Vaughn.1793 I'm not sure why anet hasn't been open about what testing methods they've done, but this seems like a fairly persistent problem that warrants more effort than what we've been allowed to see. I would eagerly volunteer my time as someone who disconnects more and more frequently towards solving this issue. I am certain that other people in this thread feel similarly.::Edit for tone and suggestion

This has happened reliably to me this entire. Year. This time I was redoing a story mission in HoT. I was going for an achievement solo. I was in the middle of a fight with some trash mobs. I am getting angrier and angrier. I enjoy this game, but this nonsense is pushing me away rather steadily.I see no reason that if our characters' mastery, achievements, and loot get saved why our progress shouldn't be saved.You try being a mediocre player just trying to have fun and enjoy a story when a half an hour solo boss fight ends in a disconnect.Because if you join a group everyone's flying through it. I cannot enjoy the content I pay for.

I am desperately trying to finish the Orr storyline, and there's nothing quite like taking 10 or so minuted to beat a repetitive and boring boss just to loose it all because of this glitch. This thread is almost half a year old. There is a thread before this one reporting the same issue from September. I don't understand how a bug that makes one of the more enjoyable parts of the game NIGH IMPOSSIBLE to play could have gone this long without a fix. I am one to spend money on FTP games that I enjoy, but until this issue has been resolved, I will definitely not be wasting my money on living world stories. Perhaps when ANet realizes they are loosing money over this they will put the proper resources into fixing it.

I didn't have this bug until recently. I stopped playing for a few months then came back. But last night I had it, I had hit the next level of MR in a quest in Orr, and when I reconnected... I still had the MR progress I had when I encountered the bug.I just now tested the clicking out of GW2 to replicate it, as in I alt-tabbed on a early storyline quest on a new character, and it allowed me to finish the quest.However, it has happened to me MULTIPLE TIMES while in fullscreen mode, since that's all I've ever played in.
