I had this bug also when I zoned into player owned town "serpent's watch" I was taking fire damage - like you do in bloodbay when swimming. my character was swimming on land.
Game terminated itself to desktop after around 30 seconds.

 

The great flood of r43.

 

Update: I went into another POT and noted that when I reach a hill I no longer appear swimming - seems like the level of water has risen but not the graphic.
In the mountain Biome it forced desktop disconnection after around 30 seconds of swimming.

 

This issue is not observed internally on patch 510. We expect this will be resolved once the patch is uploaded. if after patch 510 you still experience this issue, please rereport asap!

Thank you for reporting!

 

Note, we've identified the cause of this issue, and it appears to be from having artifact instruments equipped. As a workaround, if you are in a normal walking position and unequip the instrument before approaching water, you will operate normally. Or if you're already in a swimming state, you can unequip the instrument and reload the scene to return to a normal state.

We are working on a fix asap.

 

@Attenwood Downloaded the latest patch 510 and still experience the swimming in air and disconnecting.

 

Will be fixed in 511.
