Title: Exiting to Novia from Rift's End places avatar at wrong location
Reproduction Rate:
Blocker?
Details: Rift's End has been moved in R39 to a new location. Exiting the town places the avatar on the overworld map at the town's previous location instead of at the new location.
Steps to Reproduce:
User Specs:
OS: Windows 10 (10.0.0) 64bit
CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-3770 CPU @ 3.40GHz (8) System RAM: 16324
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 6GB GPU RAM: 6084

It looks like this is by design, since Rift's End is an island. You'd have to spawn on shore somewhere near your boat. Since the nearest spot on shore to Rift's End is almost on top of Northwood, this is where you end up.

 

@Serafina Just in case this comes up again: It appears that the first time you exit Rift's End after signing onto QA (assuming you were in scene when the server snap shot was taken), you end up at the old location. After re-entering, you will correctly end up at the new location. Presumably there's some "where's the exit" state being saved on the server.
