EA Staff (Retired)Hey @SargeanTravis
Our specialists would like to take a closer look at this glitch, but it would be very helpful if you could take and post a screenshot of the location, where it happened 🙂
Thanks in advance!

I have fallen in and been down 10 feet and couldn't get out. Maul couldnt get me. Bossk did finally.
I have a suggestion to the team and a possible explanation to this (of course not in code level).
This has problably something to do with immunity to damage. This survive the pit BUG usually triggers when you're forced into a pit by many different types of attacks or skills, or a combination of several of these together (as it constantly happens in HvV). The character simply takes no damage when falling, and then he is below the death barrier, and because of that he won't die.
Check this video to see it happening exactly like I described: https://youtu.be/BxhD1XmdRQs
(I know it's from an earlier patch, but the bug is still present and behaves equally)My Suggestion: If there is indeed a state of immunity, it's natural that it'll revert back to normal whenever the character "recomposes", as he'll hit the floor of the pit and will stand up and reset to idle state, like it happened in the video provided. In this state he can't be immune to damage (or at least it isn't likely). So if the Death Barrier was extended lower, until touching the lowest point of the Abyss, eventually the player will take the lethal hit of the Death Barrier and will die. This may not solve why the character bypasses the death barrier, but it'll remove this bug from affecting the game and its players which is your goal after all.
I think Bespin is evidence to this approach. The Death Barrier on Bespin goes waaaay low until the streets below the clouds. I ventured there by a modification of the game to allow me to walk in the Out of Bounds area, and I could touch the street when I was way off from the actual stage, but when I moved closer I died, so it's a fact the Death Barrier goes down until street level at least. Now just check how many times someone survived the death barrier on bespin, and fell until the bottom of the level? None. It has never happened to me, it has never happened to someone playing with me.
I hope this helps, if not to solve the reason to the bug, at least to stop its effects from harming the game.
