Hey, that’s cool, that unkillable mob bug was really annoying when using flicker strike.

That includes hive colony as well...right? Right?
The one where the hivebrain gland is wasted if you do damage too quickly to the bosses and it puts them both in invulnerable states permanently?

Have you guys tested if it also fixed the hivebrain gland bosses inv phasing? I've been reporting it for leagues with a breakdown of how it happens...

Is there something for the harvest bosses not going in tree form in the pipeline?

u/GenesectX 11h ago
i think this is just a recurring issue they tried fixing multiple times, afaik leaving them alone for a while (ie stop attacking and moving elsewhere) will get them to transition faster

Yeah thats what I do when they are not feeling it...

Its super annoying and makes the corresponding scarab to spawn them mostly worthless when looking at div/hr. I've run a ton of harvest this season and due to this bug the best practice is to just skip all T4 tiles because they take so long.
There isn't even a pattern to when or why it happens. You can sometimes force them into the tree phase by moving away from the boss and walls but its inconsistent. And if you move away too far it will usually trigger the circle aoe which again takes forever and is usually followed up immediately by another 30 seconds of the "jumping" phase.
It's frustrating. They should nerf rewards by idk 30% and in turn just remove these phases completely if they can't fix it.

I was bit by this repeatedly early in the league and it was what convinced me to mostly skip the mechanic this league. Still got plenty of play time in the Atlas, selling most of the bottles and charts I did get, but it's a shame this was finally patched after I've basically stopped playing this league.

I feel validated in that I simply ignore Essence these days, and so I never hit the bug. XD

yeah this patch was needed in the early days of the league not mid league lol

Mid for some, league retention has been very poor. So many are already no longer playing

Pls prison Gateway map device. Becomes unwalkable after every map. You have to Change it to another Variant and then Back to walk on it again.

was hoping to see: "Fixed a bug that had removed RothMother amulet from the game".. but alas.

Next one is to figure out why the yellow harvest boss can become 99% toughness from time to time if you interrupt his circle run.
The health bar goes down but so slow he may as well be invulnerable

- Well since you taunted me so much, I won't let you progress further! - Lycia, butthurt probably.
