My concern is the unexpected and apparently random teleportation of player characters from a cover position we've taken within the arena map. The teleportation special effect occurred and then my character was in a new position on the map !
This occurred to my character in one match, and in the next game I heard my team mate spitting expletives when his character was teleported into the middle of the attacking Cabal forces. This in level 32 matches.
EDIT 5-31-2015
My character also has fallen into the Treasure room well before our team achieved victory.
My team mates had to run out and die so the round could start over and we were re-grouped at the starting point.
EDIT 5-31-2015
* One Shot Kills: Definitely true for player characters attempting challenge at two levels below the attempted challenge.
As other players have commented... "you were just under leveled / and at too much of a level disadvantage."
EDIT 5-29-2015
Other players have confirmed that occasionally "the Gift" from Variks is announced.... we see the glowing light....and we rush over there to find....Nothing !
EDIT 5-27-2015
As Bungie is well aware, disconnections from their game are frequent. In Raids, players can usually re-connect with their party and even if the round is failed, the team can re-unite DURING PLAY. This is not the case with the Prison of Elders. Disconnected players CAN ONLY REJOIN if their team mates have cleared a round, or they just died and the booted player can re-join in those few moments before the round starts again. Disconnected players have a very narrow window in which to get back in. This is not very helpful. [b]Bungie, please find a way to help disconnected players to rejoin DURING PLAY....their team needs them to clear the rounds ![/b]
EDIT 5-27-2015
My assumption was that this is an unintended bug...I thought it might be a delay from Varik's "Get back in the airlock" teleportation power used between rounds. Since my comrades in Destiny are saying they believe this to be an intentional event, I reluctantly agree.
It is a real morale killer to learn that our Dungeon Masters feel the need to FORCE players out of cover as we attempt to face their challenge. This smacks of hostility, micro-management, and sadism. [b]I'm trying to play the game....using the given environment ! [/b]
The disconnection issue is really disheartening.....especially when it occurs in your last wave !
EDIT 5-26-2015
[b]For players playing at level 32 in the level 34 challenge, the Hobgoblin Line Rifle is a ONE SHOT KILL ! [/b]
I now assume the[b] "HOSTILE TELEPORTATION"[/b] is INTENTIONAL on Bungie's part. ( Time for official comment please ! )

The teleports happen if you go too deep into corners, and if the round is done and you haven't made it back to the waiting room.
