Try jumping. Also, the spot of doom seems to linger in every session, so if you return to the map without closing the client, you should still find it near where it hit your character.

Weird, I thought I mentioned in my initial post that I tried jumping, but I end up stuck there in the sky (similar to the original poster's 6th screenshot).

Not sure what you mean by "returning to the map", though - as far as I could see, I was "off map" somehow (it says it's loading Elderine but once I'm in, it's just blue all around me and the map in the upper right hand corner is all black - again, similar to the original poster's problem). Also, I'm not sure what you're saying I will find "near where it hit my character" - do you mean: "the spot of doom", the "map" or the "client"? It's not very clear from your last sentence what "it" is referring to... :-)

I'll try logging in again today to see if it boots me to Roumen like it did the original poster and failing that, the "mover trick".

Thanks again!
