Squads shouldn't be automatically disbanded when the host leaves

I finally got the Shocking Step today, but the host left and the squad got disbanded, giving me nothing.

Sounds like a bad host migration, we been complaining about those for long time now. That's not suppose to happen. If you haven't restarted your game yet, get the EE.Log and submit a ticket. Its proof you got it and maybe they will fix it.

That doesn't sound right.  If the host left in the mission, then you probably lost the Emphera due to a Host Migration.  But it shouldn't have disbanded the group, if you were in a mission.

If it was after you got back to your Liset, then the reward was lost before the Host left.  

However, in regards to the idea of disbanding the team upon Host leaving, I'd like that to be an option in our Settings.  I personally like the group dropping when the Host leaves, mainly because I PUG a lot and don't like being drug into random missions because I wasn't fast enough to bail.  (Hek, a leave group keybind would be wonderful as well.)

This happens if you can't connect to a new host. It would be nice if it at least synced up your items before dumping you, though.

For future cases: If you get a desired drop again (on open world maps only) press ESC and Leave Squad. You'll end up in your own session and can safely extract

edit I lost 43 runs to Host Migrations as well on Exploiter (7 had Ephemeras)
