Death_By_Smiley Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 Dread Master Raptus has always been a bit of a twitchy boss. However, several times last night his AoEs and attacks seemed to go in completely different directions than the highlighted cones or even than the boss was facing. I have linked to a Youtube video below with an example. To break down what happened, while fighting Raptus, our slope-side tank (to the right in the video) clearly has aggro on the boss for driving thrust. The animation for driving thrust goes towards the tank. Yet the tank takes no damage at all. Instead, both healers and 1 dps are hit well away from the boss. The boss is not faced in the direction of the three people who were hit (who were all standing on top of each other for AOE heals). There is clearly no visual reason to explain why we were hit. (Fair warning, these videos are from livecasts for mature audiences. Strong language is quite common. Because of this, an F-bomb was dropped in this video by yours truly.) Issues like this were happening all night. In other case, his wide slash attack (conal AOE) was faced in a different direction of the DPS. The boss was also faced in that direction. And yet, all the DPS ate the cleave, and the tanks on the side of the cleave took no damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
