Just created a new character to run rifles and pistols. Finally got strong enough to solo the silo. Went through it, got the nuke launched, got the Queen down, died right as it happened. Wasn’t allowed to respawn. Wasn’t allowed to access the menu. Wasn’t allowed to do anything except talk to the other players and stare at a nice rotating view of the mystery legendary stored inside that dead b*tch not 50 feet away from me. But hey, at least I got a COMBAT ARMOR RIGHT ARM ADDED before I was forced to alt-f4.

Hi and thanks for the report. I know this one can be frustrating and have run into it myself. We're actively looking into this event respawn issue and working to fix it as soon as possible. The fix is unlikely to make it in time for patch 14, but it is a priority for us. Will let you know as soon as I hear any updates on this one.

One thing that's worth mentioning is that if you are willing to wait long enough you may eventually be able to respawn. It took maybe 10 minutes for me. That doesn't help you loot the Imposter Sheepsquatch or SBQ corpses before they despawn, but it should still give you event completion rewards. Again, we're working on this one.
